Materials and Construction Specifications
We make custom eco friendly window boxes using premium recyclable materials that provide excellent structural integrity.
Our most popular options include:
- Kraft paperboard ranging from 250gsm to 350gsm for lightweight products
- Corrugated cardboard from 350gsm to 600gsm for items requiring additional protection. The window panels are made from biodegradable PLA (polylactic acid) film or recyclable PET plastic
- Both of which offer crystal-clear visibility while supporting your sustainability goals
The kraft paperboard options come in natural brown tones that communicate eco-consciousness, or they can be printed with custom designs using our soy-based inks. For products requiring moisture resistance, our manufacturing partners apply water-based coatings that maintain recyclability while protecting contents from humidity.
The window cutout can be positioned anywhere on the box face, with popular configurations including:
- Center windows
- Side windows
- Or full-face panels depending on your product dimensions
- Display requirements
All materials meet FSC certification standards, ensuring they come from responsibly managed forests. The adhesives used in assembly are plant-based and fully compostable, allowing the entire package to break down naturally at end of life.
This comprehensive approach to sustainable materials means your customers can recycle or compost these boxes without guilt, strengthening your brand's environmental commitment.

Available Sizes and Dimensions
We produce custom eco friendly window boxes in virtually any size to accommodate your specific product dimensions.
Our most common configurations include small boxes measuring 2x2x2 inches for jewelry or samples, medium boxes at 4x4x6 inches perfect for cosmetics and candles, and larger formats up to 12x12x8 inches for retail products or gift sets. Custom sizing ensures minimal material waste and optimal product protection during shipping and display.
For cosmetic products, popular dimensions include 2x2x4 inches for lipsticks, 3x3x6 inches for skincare bottles, and 4x6x2 inches for palette-style products. Food items typically use boxes ranging from 4x4x4 inches for single servings to 8x8x3 inches for bakery items.
Our design team helps calculate the ideal box dimensions based on your product size plus recommended clearance for protective inserts or cushioning materials.
Window dimensions are proportioned to showcase products effectively while maintaining structural integrity. We typically recommend window sizes that reveal 60-80% of the product face, leaving enough material around the perimeter for printing and structural support.
For product lines requiring consistent shelf presence, we can create multiple box sizes with proportional window scaling to maintain visual continuity across your range.
Our cosmetic boxes and food boxes collections demonstrate this scalable approach to packaging systems.
Sustainability and Environmental Impact
Every aspect of our bespoke eco friendly window boxes is designed to minimize environmental impact while maximizing recyclability. The FSC-certified paper options comes from forests managed according to strict environmental and social standards, ensuring responsible sourcing that supports forest regeneration.
Our soy-based inks eliminate petroleum derivatives found in traditional inks, reducing volatile organic compounds and improving biodegradability.
The window materials represent a critical sustainability consideration. Biodegradable PLA windows are derived from renewable plant sources like corn starch and break down completely in industrial composting facilities within 90 to 180 days.
For regions without composting infrastructure, recyclable PET windows can be separated and processed through existing plastic recycling streams. We help you choose the window material that aligns with your market's waste management capabilities and your sustainability priorities.
Manufacturing efficiency contributes to sustainability through optimized die-cutting that minimizes material waste and digital printing capabilities that eliminate plate waste associated with traditional printing methods.
Our manufacturing partners maintain lower-impact operations through renewable energy purchasing and efficiency investments. free shipping are confirmed during quoting is carbon-offset through verified environmental programs, ensuring the entire supply chain supports your sustainability goals.
This comprehensive approach mirrors the environmental commitments in our kraft boxes and corrugated boxes product lines.
