Description

Introduction

A pillow box is a distinctively curved, folding carton that pops into a pillow-like shape when assembled. Lightweight and structurally unique, this packaging is highly suitable for small to medium-sized retail items such as cosmetics, jewelry, apparel accessories, and candies. Global buyers favor this type of folding box because it ships completely flat—significantly reducing freight and warehousing costs—while offering an elegant, eye-catching unboxing experience. As a direct factory, we provide comprehensive custom pillow box packaging solutions, allowing you to seamlessly integrate your brand colors, unique artwork, and tailored sizes to create a memorable presentation for your customers.

  • Cost-Effective Manufacturing: Produced from a single piece of die-cut paperboard, making it a highly affordable yet premium-looking packaging option.

FAQ

1. Do pillow boxes ship flat or assembled?

They ship completely flat to save on shipping volume and warehousing space. They are easily popped into their 3D shape in seconds during your product packing process.

2. What is the standard thickness of the paperboard used?

We typically use 250gsm to 400gsm paperboard depending on the size of the box and the weight of the product going inside. For heavier items, we can use micro-flute corrugated board.

3. Can I get a die-cut window on the box?

Yes, we can add custom-shaped clear PVC or PET windows so your product is visible to retail customers without them needing to open the package.

4. Are your materials eco-friendly?

Yes, we offer 100% recyclable kraft paper and FSC-certified paperboard options, printed with environmentally friendly soy-based inks.

5. Can I order a printed sample before mass production?

Absolutely. We highly recommend producing a physical printed sample to verify colors, structure, and material thickness before proceeding with bulk manufacturing.

6. What is the production lead time?

Standard mass production takes 10 to 15 working days after the physical sample is approved and the order deposit is received.
