Factory-Direct Custom Specifications Bulk & Repeat Orders

Check the fit before the production run.

A sample helps you assess how the box holds your product, folds into shape and presents the artwork. Discuss the sample type, materials, cost and timing as part of your custom packaging quotation.

Sample Planning

Choose the checks your project needs.

MANUFACTURING SPECIFICATIONS ENGINEERING STANDARD SHEET
Artwork & Layout Review Check panel positions, print content and the relationship between artwork and the folding structure. A digital view cannot confirm the physical fit.
Structural Sample Review dimensions, product clearance, closure and assembly. Confirm whether the proposed material matches the intended production specification.
Printed Sample Assess artwork placement and appearance on the proposed packaging. Agree how the sampling method relates to the final production process.
Production Reference Confirm the approved specification and any remaining changes before bulk production. Review revisions again for subsequent orders.

Before Approving

Review more than the printed surface.

Does the product fit as it will actually be packed?

Check the product with its wrapping, accessories and inserts. Test the closing sequence and confirm that the contents have the intended clearance.

Can I compare different board options?

Discuss the materials you want to compare. The sample proposal will specify which options are available and what each sample is intended to demonstrate.

What happens when I reorder?

Reference the previous order and confirm whether the specification is unchanged. Material substitutions, structural changes or new artwork may require another review or sample.

Sample Service

A sample for each decision you need to make.

A material swatch, a blank box and a printed sample answer different questions. Choose a sample plan that matches the stage of your packaging project.

01 / Sample Service

Material & Finish References

Compare the feel and appearance of available papers and finish examples. A swatch is a useful reference, but it does not demonstrate the complete box construction.

02 / Sample Service

Blank Structural Sample

Check product fit, folding, closure and the packing sequence. Include accessories and inserts so the review reflects how the product will actually be packed.

03 / Sample Service

Printed Packaging Sample

Review artwork placement and appearance with the proposed structure. Confirm the sample method and any differences from the planned bulk production process.

04 / Sample Service

Approval & Revisions

Record what was approved and which points still need revision. Confirm the sample cost, delivery arrangements and any additional review before bulk production.
