Materials and GSM Specifications
Custom black mailer boxes require materials that balance elegant appearance with shipping durability.
Our boxes are constructed from high-quality corrugated paperboard selected for structural integrity and print quality.
Standard custom black mailer boxes use 350-400 GSM ECT-32 rated B-flute corrugated with premium paper facing.
This construction provides excellent crush resistance and impact protection during shipping while maintaining the smooth surface required for high-quality printing. The black coloration is printed on the outer surface using high-quality flexographic inks that resist scuffing during handling.
For premium applications, we offer:
- 400-500 GSM ECT-44 rated corrugated with 250 GSM liner that provides additional strength for heavier products. The interior uses natural kraft color that creates sophisticated contrast with the black exterior. All materials are sourced from FSC-certified suppliers
- Ensuring responsible forestry practices. The 350-400 GSM range provides optimal balance between protection
- Printing quality
- Cost efficiency
Customization Options
Custom black mailer boxes offer extensive opportunities to create packaging that reinforces your brand identity and creates lasting impressions.
Our printing capabilities transform functional shipping boxes into marketing assets that work for your brand with every delivery.
We offer:
- Digital printing for full-color designs
- Complex artwork
- Ideal for short runs
- Custom designs. Flexographic printing provides economical solutions for larger quantities with consistent quality. Offset printing delivers exceptional color accuracy for brands requiring precise color matching. Finish options include matte lamination for elegant understatement
- Gloss lamination for vibrant color
- Soft-touch lamination for premium positioning
Special finishing techniques create distinctive visual impact on black mailer boxes. Gold, silver, or holographic foil stamping adds luxurious accents. Embossing and debossing produce tactile dimensional effects. Spot UV coating creates glossy accents that draw attention.
Functional customizations include built-in perforations for easy opening, business card slits, and custom die-cut windows.
Our team can recommend optimal combinations based on your brand and products.
