Overview

Custom Boxes for Cosmetic Creams

Whether used for softening hands made rough and weary by hard work or smoothening faces lined with fatigue at day’s end, cosmetic creams have long been a part of beauty regimens the world over.

But while most of these products are sold as is in tubes, jars, and tins, using custom packaging for creams has the advantage of protecting these delicate items from both damage and contamination.

At the same time, custom packaging enables producers/manufacturers to educate their target markets as boxes can be printed with informative text on a product’s ingredients, its benefits, potential side effects, as well as contact information for customer concerns, discount tabs or coupons for future purchases, and general feedback.

Packola offers numerous options for creating highly durable and attractive custom boxes that can amplify brand appeal with both potential and existing customers.

Designed and Customized for You

Unlike traditional box production processes that may take days or even weeks, our unique online ordering and development process only takes minutes to create a custom box that captures your brand identity.

Log on to our Product Boxes page and enter the following details:

  • Interior dimensions
  • Materials of choice
  • Coating/Finish
  • Color printing options
  • Quantity

Click on Design Your Product Box Online and you are well on your way to creating a box that is as unique as your product.

Our unique design tool enables you to see your box in 3D and allows you to customize and adjust your work in real time. Add relevant text such as user instructions, precautions, and ingredient lists; put on barcodes or QR codes for ease of purchase. Make it completely your own with the addition of brand logos and taglines.

The only limitation when creating custom boxes is your own imagination.

Great Materials = Great Boxes

We offer a good selection of materials with which you can build custom packaging for cosmetic creams. These are all sustainably sourced and are 100% recyclable, enabling you to create great boxes with a lower carbon footprint.

Lightweight cardstock is thin yet durable, ideal for encasing individual items for transit while protecting them from damage or potential contaminants. Our cardstock is available in the following thicknesses:

  • 14 pt.
  • 18 pt.
  • 24 pt.

Heavier and coarser textured Corrugated Cardboard is ideal for shipping items in bulk as it is durable and can withstand the rigors of transit. Properly designed corrugated cardboard boxes can also be used as a display stand that can handily show products off on store shelves or counters. We currently offer the following types of corrugated cardboard:

  • Standard White
  • Premium White with glossy ink printing
  • Brown Kraft

Boxes may be laminated with the following coatings for an eye-catching and elegant finish:

  • Glossy coating enhances the luster of a box surface without being too glaring to look at
  • Matte adds a smooth, satiny texture to the surface that makes any text brighter and more readable
  • Spot UV makes colors brighter and images more striking

Custom material options are available and are priced accordingly.

A Quick Way to Customize Your Box

  • Window Cut-outs

Q: How do I know what box size I need?
A:

Start by measuring the items you want to put inside the box. You can assemble and group the products together to simulate how it would look like packed inside. Measure the length, width, and depth of the space it occupies. Add an inch or two on the sides to make it easy to pack and unpack. 

Q: Can I order a sample?
A:

Yes. For a competitive price, you can order a sample with your own artwork and dimensions. Please set Quantity to "1 sample" on the configuration widget and proceed to order.

Q: Do you offer Free Samples?
A:

No. All samples are made to order with your own artwork and dimensions. We do not offer pre-made samples or material kits.

Q: How long will it take for my boxes to arrive?
A:

We offer Standard (8-10 business days) and Rush (4-5 business days) production turnarounds for Cardstock Product Boxes while 4-15 business days production turnarounds for Corrugated Product Boxes. Depending on your location, Standard Shipping will take 1-6 business days once production is finished. If you have a tight deadline, please contact us to make sure your deadline can be met.“

Q: I am a reseller. Can you waive my sales taxes?
A:

Yes, however, we need you to submit your resale certificate before placing your order. We have limited ability to refund sales taxes after an order is placed.

Q: How can I design my box?
A:

We have an Online Design Studio that makes it super easy to add logo, texts, and graphics to your box within minutes. You may also design using a professional desktop application like Adobe Illustrator® and send us a complete artwork.

Q: Do you charge extra based on the number of colors and the amount of ink on the box?
A:

No. You may cover your box with as many colors as you want at no extra charge.

Q: Are shipping boxes reusable?
A:

Yes, our shipping boxes can be reused, repurposed, and recycled. We recommend upcycling the boxes in-house and not using them to ship products again to customers.  

Q: What is an RSC Box?
A:

RSC stands for regular slotted container. It is the most common box style for shipping and storage boxes. It’s characterized by two outer flaps that meet at the center and needs to be sealed with packaging tape. 

Q: What is an FOL Box?
A:

FOL stands for full overlap box. The flaps of the box extend all the way to the opposite side. This adds extra padding and increases durability and protection. 

Customer Reviews

Everything I could have asked for

The Packola Team was everything I could have asked for when starting my subscription box company. Their customer service is excellent, they worked with me tirelessly to make sure I was getting everything I needed, and I was very impressed with their knowledge and ability to share their knowledge with me in a way I could understand with no previous box experience. The build your box feature on the website is top of the line, and would highly recommend them to anyone with their box needs.

Packola: Thank you very much, Chase! Learning about PeakFooty and working on your custom mailer boxes was a lot of fun and we are so glad that you guys were happy with the quality of the boxes and timeliness of delivery. We look forward to hearing great news about PeakFooty and having you as a customer for years!

Appreciate the support

My box looks wonderful, thank you so much. I had issues with the editing process, but in the end it worked out fine. Customer service helped me out each step of the way, even providing me with a design element when mine wasn't sufficient. I appreciate the level of the support. You all definitely have my business.
Benny

Strong and Durable

My order arrived in great shape today. I put a few of them together and they look and feel great! I'm very happy with the construction and the box feels very strong and durable for future journeys through the post. It was my first order with Packola and I'm very happy with the website, communication and quality. I'll definitely mention it to friends and will be back for more when I'm ready.
Daniel Seegers

Awesome company

They make every effort to get your order exactly as you want it. I wanted a certain font that wasn't on their website and they went out of their way to add it to my order. Very happy and will definitely be using them again!
