Consumer Gift Boxes are custom-printed paperboard folding cartons for retail and e-commerce brands packaging products as ready-to-give gifts. Made from rigid-feeling SBS or kraft folding board, they present cleanly on a shelf and protect contents in transit.
Full-color CMYK printing carries your brand story across every panel, turning the box into part of the unboxing instead of an afterthought. A straight-tuck-end design keeps the front face clean for retail display, while an interior print rewards customers when they open it. Brands use these for retail gift sets, holiday bundles, subscription extras, and direct-to-consumer shipments.

Gift Box Manufacturing Across Order Bands
Gift packaging splits into two families. Folding cartons print beautifully and ship flat, so they suit high count seasonal programs. Rigid two piece boxes with wrapped paper and magnetic flaps feel more substantial in hand and carry a higher entry minimum of 100 units.

|---|---|
| 50 | Folding carton starting point; rigid builds require 100 pieces. |
