Cream Boxes are custom-printed folding cartons built to protect face creams, body creams, and night creams for skincare and cosmetic brands. Each box is made from sturdy SBS or kraft paperboard and printed in full color to your artwork.
A snug carton keeps a glass or plastic cream jar centered and scratch-free from fill line to shelf, so the unboxing matches the product inside. Reverse-tuck-end and auto-bottom styles load fast on a manual line, and a spot-gloss logo over a matte body gives a moisturizer the premium read buyers expect at the beauty counter.
