Packaging Mania crafts trendy and catchy boxes that captivate the buyers with their wow factor.
Custom printed die cut boxes have created demand with their ability to be tailored into required sizes and shapes. Their use expands across several industries and brands employ these boxes to gain maximum marketing benefits. Made from various sorts of materials, die cut boxes serve various purposes. They can be tailored into small die cut boxes to pack and dispatch small items. Brands mold them into sturdy shipping boxes to ship heavy, luxury, fragile, or gift items over long distances. Clients can emboss them to make high-quality gift boxes. Designers can add custom inserts and add-on features to amplify their functionality and appeal. Bulk sellers can sell their items in custom die cut boxes tailored with materials that are light on pocket and effectively display their items.
Designers use hi-tech die-cutting machines in required sizes and shapes. The required design is given to the machine through a digital prototype. The machine will create a die line according to the given template. A similar method is used to add die cut windows in the boxes. These display windows let clients observe and analyze the packed items. The die-cutting machines operate as per the given rules, each giving a unique effect to the materials.
1. Through-cutting: As the name implies, die-cut machines cut through the material to create various sorts of patterns in the boxes.
2. Creasing: As per this method, die-cut machines create stress spots in the boxes. Creating these stress spots in parallel forms creates flexibility in the packaging. Thus, designers can easily mold the packaging to create different shapes.
3. Scoring: The major purpose of scoring is other than cutting through the materials. Designers limit the extent of cutting by defining boundaries through scoring. They also create stress spots to mold the boxes into required shapes.
4. Perforation: As the name suggests, designers create a line of holes or perforations in this process. This weakens the specific part of the boxes that can be bent or torn easily.
Several brands and industries use custom die cut boxes for various purposes. To carry out these several tasks, designers tailor them with materials, layouts, and designs. These different types of die cut boxes include:
1. Suitcase Boxes
These die cut boxes come in the shape of suitcases with handles that enable the clients to easily carry them anywhere they want. Brands use these boxes to pack heavy, luxury, and delicate items. These include digital items, toys, edibles, and many other products. The handles also come in different types. These include leather, plastic, fabric, or nylon handles. Leather and nylon handles give a premium look to the boxes and are sturdy enough to enable clients to easily carry heavy items. Plastic is the most used handle type. These handles are mostly used in suitcase boxes for medical, footwear, apparel, and digital products. Designers can add custom inserts like cushions, foils, clothing, etc. to enhance the safety, appeal, and functionality of suitcase boxes.
2. Mailer Boxes
This is the most popular type of custom die cut packaging. Designers mold only a single piece of card stock material to make a mailer box. These boxes have lids that can be self-locked and offer easy and smooth unboxing. Brands use them to deliver items over long distances. These boxes are designed to guard the products from wear and tear on the way. Also known as subscription boxes, brands offer regular deliveries to special clients as part of monthly or annual membership plans. Designers can include custom inserts to enhance their safety and shelf appeal and to make them apt for marketing.
3. Gift Boxes
Creating gift packaging with unique shapes is another top usage of die cut boxes. Brands can offer gift boxes with unique sizes and shapes that impress the recipients and add to their joy. These boxes are mostly made of paperboard material. This high-quality material gives a more polished look which can be enhanced by applying different types of varnishes and laminations. Adding die cut windows in gift boxes amplify their appeal. Recipients instantly get excited looking at the packed items which makes the unboxing experience memorable. Brands use gift boxes for PR purposes. These boxes usually come with top lids that are perfect for customization. Brands can win the hearts of influencers who will give a positive review to the brand if they’re impressed by the PR gift boxes.
4. Ballot Boxes
This type of die cut box serves a similar purpose as its name suggests. Ballot boxes are used to cast votes in elections, make proposals, give feedback, donate money, etc. A ballot box is a simple square-shaped box with a slot cut at the top. These boxes are always in demand for stated purposes and can be ordered at bulk rates to save money and gain profits. Designers can make interesting ballot boxes with vibrant graphics and colors to collect donations at parties organized by NGOs, children's foundations, etc.
5. Trilateral Shipping Boxes
As the name suggests, these boxes are triangular with a secure locking system at the top. Brands use these boxes to safely ship their items including edibles, furniture, decorations, and other luxury and heavy items. They are made of sturdy materials and offer safe shipping. Brands can cut damages costs, make huge profits, and earn clients’ trust by using these boxes.
6. Tuck Top Boxes
Also known as snap lock bottom, these boxes are made from card stock material. A top tuck box consists of two closure systems that offer high levels of safety.

The bottom of the box utilizes a snap lock system which tightly seals the base and offers optimum stability and safety to the items.
