Custom Trade Show Boxes
Trade show packaging drives booth traffic, protects product samples, and extends brand presence beyond the exhibition floor. Our custom trade show boxes help exhibitors create memorable giveaways, organize booth materials, and ship samples to prospects efficiently.
Durable Materials for Exhibition Environments
Trade show boxes withstand heavy handling, booth setup conditions, and shipping to multiple show locations. Material recommendations include:
- 200# test corrugated for heavy product samples and literature
- 18pt SBS paperboard for attractive giveaway boxes
- Rigid board construction for premium demo kits
- Water-resistant coatings for outdoor exhibitions
Box designs prioritize easy assembly at trade show booths. One-piece folders pop up quickly without tape or glue. Crash-lock bottoms provide automatic base formation. Tuck-top closures allow for fast filling and sealing during busy booth hours.
High-Impact Booth Graphics
Trade show boxes compete for attention in crowded exhibition halls. Bold graphics, vibrant colors, and clear messaging help your packaging stand out. Full-color printing covers all visible surfaces with brand elements, product photography, and calls-to-action that drive booth visits.
Large logos and taglines ensure visibility from across the show floor. QR codes connect physical packaging to digital content, demo videos, or post-show follow-up forms. Unique structural shapes and die-cuts create three-dimensional displays that attract attendees.
Finish options include high-gloss UV for maximum color pop under exhibition lighting. Matte finishes reduce glare in well-lit convention centers. Metallic inks and foils add premium visual elements that communicate quality and innovation.
Trade Show Box Pricing
Pricing varies based on box size, structural complexity, and print coverage. Example costs for 6x6x6 inch sample boxes:
- 100 units: $4.25 per box
- 500 units: $2.35 per box
- 1,000 units: $1.65 per box
Minimum order is 100 units. Standard production time is 15-20 business days. Many exhibitors order 2-3 months before major trade shows to ensure adequate inventory. We offer rush production for last-minute show additions or unexpected attendance surges.
Applications for Exhibitors
Companies use trade show boxes to package product samples, promotional items, sales collateral, and demo materials. Technology exhibitors ship devices and accessories to qualified leads. Manufacturing companies pack component samples and specification sheets. Service providers create information kits with brochures, case studies, and branded merchandise.
The boxes serve dual purposes as booth displays and takeaway packaging. Stack them attractively at booth entrances to draw traffic. Use them as literature holders throughout the show. Provide them to attendees as convenient carry solutions for collected materials.
Custom Structures for Show Impact
Standard boxes work well, but custom die-cuts create booth differentiation. Design boxes that reflect your product shape or industry. Add pop-up elements that create dimensional displays. Include windows that showcase products inside. Create telescoping designs where lids lift off to reveal premium contents.
Handles make boxes easy to carry through crowded show floors. Perforated tear-strips allow attendees to access contents without destroying the box. Scored panels convert boxes into self-standing displays on desks or shelves after the show.
Multi-Show Durability
Exhibition schedules often include multiple shows across different cities. Our boxes ship efficiently between venues, stack well in booth storage, and maintain appearance through repeated handling. Corrugated options protect valuable demo products during transit. Reinforced edges prevent corner crushing during setup and teardown.
Post-Show Marketing Value
Trade show boxes extend marketing impact long after the exhibition ends. Attendees display attractive boxes in offices, creating ongoing brand visibility. The packaging serves as a tangible reminder to follow up on products and services. Include printed URLs, social media handles, and contact information to facilitate post-show engagement.
