Gift Boxes

Gift Boxes

Though the purpose of a box may be purely functional, boxes can also be decorative. Lots of boxes are used for promotional packaging both commercially and privately. Traditionally gift boxes used for promotional and seasonal gifts are made from card material. These boxes normally consist of a base and detachable lid and are made by using a DIE cutting device to cut the board out. Gift boxes can be dressed with other gift packaging material, such as decorative ribbons and gift tissue paper.

Gift boxes with lids are a great way for you to send out your premium products and add value at a low price. Special occasion gifts and promotional packs really stand out in colours and having a lid allows your product to still have that surprise element if given as a gift.

Having boxes that can be put together quickly also helps you save time and therefore money. It’s no good buying cheap gift boxes with lids only to find out that they take a long time to put together therefore losing the cost advantages of a quick turnaround. Extra materials such as glue or tape that is often needed to assemble boxes also adds to the overall cost of sending your product out in a gift box. All these things need to be carefully considered when choosing the packaging for your expanding business.

Although you are trying to source your packaging at the cheapest price possible to increase your profit margins you need to be aware also of the quality of your packaging materials. This reflects on people’s view of your business and could mean the difference between them becoming a repeat customer or not.
