Inter Lock Gable Boxes are paperboard carry boxes with an interlocking top closure and a built-in handle, custom-printed for candle makers and gift brands that want a no-glue, secure-snap package. The interlocking tabs fold shut without tape or adhesive, so customers open and reclose the box by hand.
The locking top keeps lids and tissue in place during transit, which cuts down on damaged returns, and the fold-flat construction ships and stores efficiently before assembly. The carry handle turns the box into a ready-to-gift package, so a single soy or scented candle can go straight from your fulfillment table to a shopper's hand at a market booth or pop-up.
