Custom Printed Gift Boxes, Tubes & Packaging

Start With Every Item Going Inside

List the exact product dimensions, quantity per pack, orientation and any protective material. Add cards, tissue, inserts and closures to the calculation. A bottle tube needs the bottle diameter and height; a magnetic box needs enough internal room for the assembled gift without allowing everything to perform its own pinball sequence in transit.

Boxes, Tubes and Finishing Pieces

• Magnetic-lid gift boxes: create a structured presentation for suitable products and may be available in multiple sizes.
• Wine and bottle tubes: are shaped for selected bottles or drinkware, with exact compatibility checked before ordering.
• Pillow boxes: suit compact gifts and event pieces where a lighter folded carton is appropriate.
• Tissue and wrapping paper: add colour and pattern around a product, using templates and repeats designed for the finished fold.
• Cards and stickers: carry instructions, thanks, campaign details or a closure mark without crowding the main package.

Presentation Packaging Is Not Always a Shipping Carton

A beautiful gift box may be designed for presentation rather than courier handling. If packs will travel individually, test the complete system with an outer mailer or shipping carton, void fill and closure. Consider scuffing, crushing, moisture and label placement. The unboxing moment loses some magic when the hero box arrives looking like it fought Thanos.

Assembly also matters. Flat-packed boxes, tissue, stickers and cards need people, bench space and time. Ask how components are supplied and decide whether your team, a fulfilment partner or the product supplier will pack them.

Food, Chocolate and Bottle Details

Selected boxes are shown for chocolate, wine or drinkware, but food-contact suitability, barriers and item compatibility must be confirmed on the exact packaging. Wrapped food may have different requirements from direct contact. Alcohol gifting also brings organisational policies, recipient suitability and legal responsibilities outside the packaging itself.

Design Across Folds and Curves

Full-colour printing can turn cards, tissue, wrapping and selected boxes into campaign artwork. Foil, labels and other finishes may be available by product. Tubes and folded cartons use templates where seams, closures, magnets and curves interrupt the design.

Use the printing processes guide for an overview, then approve the proof in the correct orientation. Keep essential text away from folds and make repeat patterns forgiving when tissue is crumpled or wrapping overlaps.

Real-Life Packaging Briefs

• Client gifts: a magnetic box sized around the product set, insert and delivery method.
• Wine and drinkware: a compatible tube with enough protection for how it will be handed over or shipped.
• Events: pillow boxes, cards or stickers that make small giveaways feel intentional.
• Retail and e-commerce: tissue, wrapping and message cards that support the brand without slowing packing to a crawl.
