Tips for printing cost-effective custom shape rigid boxes

With 20 years of experience in the printing paper packaging industry, Khang Thanh suggests tips to help brands save and optimize the cost of producing custom rigid boxes from the first steps.

1. Choose the right paper

Produce high-end rigid boxes, but do not use high-quality paper. Why not? Khang Thanh reveals how to save costs right from the step of choosing raw materials while still ensuring two core factors: sturdy and beautiful.

First, choose regular paper such as Couche, Ivory or Kraft. However, choose high-quality paper from 150-250 gsm so that the paper is still thick enough.

Next, laminate the paper onto sturdy cardboard instead of expensive chipboard. This helps reduce the unit price of the custom rigid box, while still ensuring sturdiness and luxury.

2. Invest in adding surface effect of the custom shape rigid boxes

The surface processing stage is the final step and enhance the custom shaped box. Therefore, at this stage, business can maximize the advantages of the techniques to upgrade the packaging:

Solutions that can be applied:

• Glossy/matte lamination: use glossy lamination if you need to prevent scratches, and matte lamination if you need a thicker box
• UV shaping, foil stamping: apply for important details such as logos, slogans, and patterns to make the box look minimalist and luxurious
• Embossing/debossing: this is a special technique that stimulates the sense of touch when touching the box

Effective application is both economical because of cheap paper costs and suitable for brands aiming for sustainable packaging, environmental protection.
