No Folding or Tucking Needed – Say Hello to Auto Lock Bottom Boxes

Lock Bottom Boxes

Auto Lock Bottom Boxes

The packaging style I’m featuring this week is the unique Auto Lock Bottom Box – the perfect choice for food and beverage packaging. This sturdy and user-friendly box style, also known as “pop & lock bottom boxes” or “crash bottom boxes,” offers a hassle-free and user-friendly solution. Unlike other box styles, which require folding and tucking bottom flaps, this style has a pre-glued bottom that is quickly popped into place.

Shipping costs too high? Switch to collapsible rigid boxes!

The product I’m showing this week is a Rigid Box that ships flat and is very easy to quickly assemble! Although these boxes can be collapsed, they feature thick, sturdy materials and a magnetic closure.

Specialties Graphic Finishers

Standard collapsible rigid boxes available online have double sided tape applied to the inner four corners of the box. The end user removes the tape backing and pushes the corners together, which forms the box.

The design of this box is different! It only requires the end user to push two ends together before folding a flap down, which holds the box in position. To flatten the box again, the user simply lifts the ribbon attached to the folded flap.

Why would someone want a rigid box that can be collapsed? Non-collapsible rigid styles are costly to ship because of their volume. Collapsible rigid boxes that ship flat are a great way to reduce shipping costs! If your client is looking for fully custom boxes with innovative solutions, please give us a call.

Reduce Shipping Costs with Collapsible Rigid Boxes

As a leading graphic arts finishing company, we understand the importance of finding cost-effective packaging solutions that still maintain an impressive quality. That’s why we’re excited to showcase our latest product – a collapsible rigid box that is easy to assemble and reduces shipping costs.

Thick and Sturdy Materials: It’s essential to mention that even though these boxes can be collapsed, they’re still incredibly sturdy. Our collapsible rigid boxes are made of top-quality materials that keep their shape even after being flattened and shipped. The magnetic closure ensures that the box stays shut during transportation, ensuring that your product and brand image are protected.

Easy and Quick Assembly: Our collapsible rigid boxes are designed for quick assembly, requiring little effort or know-how on the part of the end-user. Unlike standard collapsible rigid boxes, our design only requires the user to push two ends together, then fold down the flap to hold the box in place. To flatten the box, the user simply lifts a ribbon attached to the folded flap. This means that regardless of the end-users, they can easily assemble and disassemble the box, without the need for special skills or instructions.

Reduce Shipping Costs: Shipping costs can quickly add up, and anything that can reduce them is a lifesaver. Non-collapsible rigid boxes are costly to ship due to their volume. Our collapsible rigid boxes can be easily flattened, which means they take up less volume and ultimately reduce shipping costs.

Fully Customizable: At Specialties, we pride ourselves on offering innovative finishing solutions. Our collapsible rigid boxes can be tailored to your clients’ unique needs, such as branding elements, custom sizes, internal packaging, and more. This helps create a premium unboxing experience that reinforces a brand image.

In conclusion, our collapsible rigid boxes are the ideal solution for those looking to reduce shipping costs without sacrificing quality and branding. They are sturdy, easy to assemble, and fully customizable, making them suitable for an array of industries and products. Get in touch with us today to discuss your next packaging project.

 

One Size Doesn’t Fit All … You Need Fully Custom Rigid Boxes

Rigid Boxes

In the world of product packaging, one size does not fit all. This is especially true for manufacturers and retailers who need boxes that are tailored to specific products and consumers. This is where fully custom rigid boxes come into play.

Each of our fully custom rigid box projects starts with crafting a prototype, taking into consideration the product’s shape, size, and weight, as well as the consumer’s needs and preferences.

Book Carriers

Book Carriers

Book Carriers

When a client is looking for a slipcase for a book, it’s usually for just a single book and is mostly for aesthetic or protective purposes. Slipcases also can’t really have a handle as the only location makes it difficult to remove the book. Traditional slipcases (pictured below), therefore, aren’t overly practical for the client that wants to carry the books in something functional with a handle.

Specialties Graphic Finishers

Book Carriers

Enter the die cut Book Carrier! This style of slipcase requires conventional printing, die cutting, the application of Velcro or magnetic closures and a handle. Traditional handles can be applied, or you can get create and use materials like rope, faux leather, plastic, metal, etc. From a cost point of view, die cut Book Carriers are generally cheaper than a conventional book slipcases and Book Carriers involve you (the printer) in the printing!
