Tray And Sleeve Packaging is a two-piece custom-printed paperboard set - an inner tray that holds the product and an outer sleeve that slides over it - made for brands that want a tidy reveal on cosmetics, tech accessories, and gift sets. The tray cradles each item while the sleeve carries your branding.
The slide-out motion turns opening the box into a moment, which helps unboxing videos and repeat buyers. Because the tray holds product in place, items arrive seated and presentable instead of loose. Reach for this format when you ship multi-piece kits, candle or skincare sets, or electronics that need a defined slot for each part.
