When to Use Box Sleeve?

Custom Box Sleeve is a simple but effective packaging solution to make your product recognizable. A Sleeve Box is a versatile option for customized packaging. It can be used as primary packaging or as an additional branding element. You can use it for cosmetics, food packaging, clothes, or any other product you sell. Custom Sleeve Boxes create additional space for the information you want to convey to your customers in situations when primary packaging does not offer enough space.

Box Sleeve Assembly

Custom Packaging Sleeves are a very simple packaging solution and therefore do not require any special handling. They are delivered flat and scored so they pop up easily. Sleeve Boxes are open on the sides, so all it takes is to pop up the box and insert the product inside.

Box Sleeve Paper Options

Most common choice for retail packaging is SBS paperboard. 18 pt SBS is a high-quality paperboard easy to customize. Since custom sleeve boxes are usually printed on one side, a very popular paper option is also the one with a kraft back side. In case you need certain paper options that are not specified on our website, you can contact our team for a custom quote.

Uncoated Paper

Uncoated surface makes the colours muted and gives your packaging a more subtle look.
It provides a great look and feel combined with matte or gloss lamination.
Environmentally friendly.

Coated Paper

Coated on both sides with a glossy finish, this paper makes the colours shiny and saturated.
Offers more structure and scuff resistance.
High-quality printing performance.

Kraft Paper

Manufactured using 100% renewable energy.
Offers natural “kraft” feel and outstanding print performance.
Perfect for an environmentally conscious company.

Finishing Options for Box Sleeves

Make your Box Sleeve even more eye-catching by adding different coatings. Choose lamination or semi-gloss AQ for extra protection and durability of your packaging. This will also enhance the visual appeal. These coatings come as matte, gloss or semi-gloss.

Special Finishes

Make it shine! Add spot UV coating, foiling (clear or coloured) to add an extra touch of luxury to your custom Sleeve boxes. Or use embossing to add tactile elements. Embossing will raise the surface to emphasize parts of your design. Adding these finishes will make your products look more upscale and unique.
