Print & Finishing Workflow
How your box is printed, finished and checked.
The in-house sequence this format runs through — from prepress to the final inspection before packing.
- 01
Strength specification
Board combination (liner/flute/liner) is selected against stacked weight, pallet height and route.
- 02
Flexo print plates
Logo, handling icons and shipping marks are made as flexo plates; ink coverage is tuned to the flute.
- 03
Print & slot
Sheets print, then slot, crease and fold into cartons on the corrugator line.
- 04
Compression validation
Sample cartons are compression-tested to the stacking specification.
- 05
Flat bundling
Cartons are bundled flat per size with pallet plans for your warehouse.
Customization Capability
Built around your product, not off the shelf.
Every parameter above can be specified. These are the dimensions of customization this format supports best.
Route-driven strength
Flute and wall are chosen from your stacking height and destination route, not guesswork.
Brand on the outside
One-to-three color flexo prints your logo and handling marks economically at volume.
Premium unboxing option
Offset-printed laminated cartons turn the outer box into part of the gift experience.
Size family planning
Multiple carton sizes share artwork for a coordinated fleet.
Recyclable by design
Aqueous coating and kraft construction keep single-material recyclability.
Application context
Where this format can begin.
- E-commerce case shipments
- Wholesale order cartons
- Multi-item distribution packs
Structure
Define the opening, loading and closure.
A slotted corrugated shipping carton sized to the packed contents and closed according to the fulfillment workflow.
Specify internal size from the full pack-out, including products, dividers, cushioning, and packing clearance.
Material & board
Review construction against the packed product.
- Kraft Corrugated Board
- White Corrugated Board
- B-Flute
- C-Flute
- BC-Flute
Review B-, C-, or BC-flute in kraft or white board against packed weight and distribution conditions.
Printing & surface
Place artwork on the confirmed dieline.
- Flexographic Printing
Plan flexographic exterior graphics around seams, flaps, labels, handling marks, and tape areas.
Features
Add only what supports use and packing.
No feature is fixed at this stage; suitable closures, openings or handling details can be reviewed by project.
Feature feasibility depends on the final dimensions, board, dieline and packing workflow.
Inserts & accessories
Plan product organization with the outer box.
An insert is optional and should be assessed from the product arrangement and handling brief.
If internal support is needed, prototype it with the complete product, accessories and practical finger clearance.
Sampling
Use the sample that answers the current question.
A material reference helps compare surfaces, a blank structural sample checks fit and assembly, and a printed sample reviews the combined structure and artwork. Scope, cost and timing are confirmed before preparation.
Review sampling options →Factory reassurance
One working specification from review to production.
Final dimensions, material, artwork version, quantity, sample approval and packing instructions are recorded for the production discussion. Manufacturing feasibility, schedule and commercial terms remain subject to quotation confirmation.
