What Is a Pillow Box?
A pillow box is a lightweight folding carton with curved, rounded ends that meet to form a soft pillow shape. It needs no glue and assembles in seconds, making it a favorite for small gifts and favors.
How It Is Built
A single scored sheet curves into the pillow form; the two end flaps tuck into each other to close. The shape stands on its own and looks finished without extra wrapping.
Common Applications
Pillow boxes suit jewelry, cosmetics samples, soaps, confectionery, party favors and small accessories where a gift-ready look matters more than heavy protection.
Materials & Printing
Use coated or kraft paperboard in light grammages, with matte or gloss finish, foil or simple one-color print for a clean look.
Customization, MOQ & Sampling
Send dimensions and artwork; we supply a dieline and a physical sample. Low MOQ suits events and small batches.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a pillow box?
A pillow box is a curved carton with two arched ends that resemble a pillow. It folds flat for shipping and pops into shape when squeezed, giving a distinctive premium look without the cost of a rigid box.
Can pillow boxes hold heavier items?
They are designed for lightweight goods, typically under 300g. For heavier products we recommend a tuck end or auto bottom carton, since the curved panels are not load bearing.
Can I add a window or handle to a pillow box?
Yes. Die-cut windows with clear PET patching and punched hang holes or ribbon slots are both common. We keep any cut at least 6mm away from the curved creases so the shape holds.
What is the minimum order quantity?
500 pieces per size and design. Pillow boxes are a frequent choice for event and seasonal runs, so we keep short-run digital printing available.
Which finishes suit pillow boxes best?
Metallic foil, pearlescent board and soft-touch lamination all photograph well on the curved surface. Full-bleed CMYK printing across the arch is also possible with our extended dieline template.

Packing Method For Corrugated Packaging:
Generally no need to put the PE bags inside of the cartons. Since the boxes are glued a layer of cardboard, generally production time is not long enough to dry the paper box. If you tie the PE bags, the steamed water pearl will be produced inside of the bags.
