Materials and GSM Specifications
Retail cosmetics packaging must balance visual appeal with structural integrity for shelf display. Our standard retail boxes use 16pt cardstock at 300gsm, providing excellent print surfaces and adequate durability for typical retail handling. This specification works for most cosmetics categories.
For products requiring more robust packaging or heavier contents, we recommend 18pt 350gsm cardstock. This heavier weight resists damage from repeated handling and maintains box integrity during stocking and display. Premium products benefit from 20pt 400gsm rigid board that creates the substantial feel consumers associate with quality.
All retail packaging materials are FSC-certified and printed with soy-based inks. These choices support sustainability claims while delivering the print quality that makes retail packaging effective. Every material batch receives quality verification to ensure consistency.

Our finishing options include matte lamination for elegant sophistication, gloss lamination for vibrant shine, and soft-touch lamination for premium tactile appeal. Each finish creates different shelf presence and price-point associations.
