Pet Food Boxes are custom-printed paperboard folding cartons for any pet line - dogs, cats, birds, small animals - that needs flexible retail packaging across multiple SKUs. Each carton is printed in full-color CMYK on SBS or kraft paperboard and built to your artwork and size.
One carton style across your range keeps branding consistent while you swap colorways per animal or flavor, which trims artwork costs and speeds reorders. Pet brands use these for treat lines, supplement and chew cartons, sample kits at trade shows, and starter boxes for new-pet retailers. Print inside the lid to carry feeding guides or a QR code without a separate insert.
