Send inside dimensions, packed weight, quantity, artwork and delivery country for a structure and sample review.
Rigid boxes · opening & fit
Choose the opening experience.
The opening, insert and packed-product weight work together. Compare these structures, then send the inside dimensions and intended contents for review.
01 / HINGED
Magnetic book-style
For cosmetics, gift sets and electronics with a repeated-opening presentation.
Check: magnet position, closing force, hinge and insert clearance.
02 / SLIDING
Drawer box
For jewelry, accessories and smaller sets with a controlled sliding reveal.
Check: tray clearance, ribbon pull, stop position and product retention.
03 / ASSEMBLED FROM FLAT
Foldable rigid
For projects that need to review empty-box storage and shipping volume.
Check: folding panels, adhesive areas, assembly steps and final rigidity.
04 / TWO PIECES
Lift-off lid
A classic lid and base for fragrance, gifts and apparel accessories.
Check: lid depth, lid-and-base fit, lifting grip and insert retention.
Discuss lift-off lid boxes05 / LAYERED REVEAL
Shoulder & neck
For premium gifts and jewelry with a layered opening and visible inner neck.
Check: neck height, visible gap, assembly method and material thickness.
Discuss shoulder boxesPRODUCT FIT
Choose the insert
Compare paperboard, corrugated, EVA and molded-pulp options around the actual product.
Check: contact points, packed weight, removal method and required support.
Compare insert materialsKeep structure and material separate. The rigid shell uses greyboard with a selected wrapping paper. Finish, thickness and inserts are reviewed for your dimensions and contents; a foldable rigid structure is different from a paperboard folding carton.
Compare Rigid Box Shipping Volume Before Choosing a Structure
Ask for the packing specification for both an assembled rigid box and a suitable foldable rigid option. A flat delivery format can change empty-box storage and shipping volume, but the benefit must be checked against the actual packing method and assembly work.
Check the shipping pack
Compare units per outer carton, carton count, external carton dimensions and gross weight. Confirm whether inserts travel inside each box or in separate cartons.
Review assembly at destination
For a foldable rigid structure, review the folding sequence, adhesive areas, setup space and finished opening action. Use an assembled sample to check product fit and the closure.
Compare the same order
Use the same quantity, product fit, insert requirement and destination when comparing quotes. Include the assembly and protective packing requirements; a smaller empty-box pack does not by itself establish the lowest delivered cost.
XLY can review the structure and packing proposal together so the quotation reflects how the boxes will be supplied and used.
RIGID BOX CATALOGUE / WINE AND GIFT SETS
Plan a bottle gift set around its dividers
For one, two or three bottles, the outer format is only the start. Agree the exact filled bottles and carry route before a prototype.
Bottle envelope
Measure body diameter and height with cap, label and any protective wrap.
Divider and neck
Place each bottle, support the base and check neck clearance and removal access.
Carry and sample
Check the packed weight, opening action and transport pack on an approved physical sample.
Real Rigid Box Samples
These existing XLY sample photos show different presentation styles, printed finishes and product layouts. Final specifications still need to be confirmed for the actual product.
Greyboard And Wrapping Paper
- Greyboard thickness is confirmed around the finished box size, product weight and structure.
- Wrapping options can include printed paper, kraft paper, specialty paper and textured paper where suitable.
- Paper, coating and adhesive choices need to match the artwork, crease, wrapping method and intended use.
Inserts And Product Fit
- Options can include EVA, flocked EVA, paperboard, corrugated, molded pulp and other suitable solutions.
- The insert must be reviewed around product dimensions, weight, contact points and removal method.
- Not every material or insert is suitable for every product, structure or market requirement.
See the Packaging Inserts Guide.
Printing, Finishing And Applications
Printing and paper
CMYK, Pantone colors, full artwork and specialty-paper presentation can be reviewed against the selected wrapping route.
Premium finishes
Options can include foil stamping, embossing, debossing, spot UV, matte or gloss lamination and soft-touch finishes where suitable.
Applications
Rigid boxes are commonly evaluated for beauty, jewelry, candles, electronics, gifts and high-value retail products.
Review the Printing and Finishing Guide before final artwork approval.
Information Needed For A Quote
- Finished inside or outside dimensions and product dimensions
- Product weight, box structure and opening preference
- Order quantity per design, size and style
- Wrapping paper, printing, finish and insert requirements
- Artwork status, destination country and target timing
MOQ: Our standard MOQ is 500 pieces per design, size and style. Smaller orders of 200–499 pieces may be considered for selected packaging structures, but the unit price will be significantly higher due to fixed setup and production costs.
Sampling, Production And Quality Checks
A physical sample is recommended when product fit, opening action, insert performance, color or premium finishing is important.
Customer approval and factory production checkpoints are separate: the approved sample and artwork define the reference, while in-process and final packing checks verify production against that reference.
