A Pillow Box is a curved-end paperboard box for retail brands packing small gifts, jewelry, accessories, and party favors, custom-printed in full color. The soft, pillow-shaped form pops open from flat and folds closed without tape or glue.
Because it ships and stores flat, you save on freight and warehouse space until you need it, then assemble by hand in seconds at the pack station. Add a die-cut PET window so a boutique soap or a bracelet shows through on the shelf, or a hang-hole so the box hooks onto a peg display in a gift shop or pop-up market.

Printing & Finishing
Print edge to edge in full-color CMYK, then add upgrades that fit the shelf. Spot UV makes a logo catch the light, foil stamping adds a metallic line, and embossing gives the panel texture. A PET window and a hang-hole turn the Pillow Box into a ready-to-merchandise retail unit.
