Electronics Boxes built to your specification — your dimensions, your board, your print.
No obligation
Name, email, phone and what you are packing and how it ships. Attach artwork if you have it. We reply with a specification and a written price, usually within one business day.
A drop onto a corner transmits straight through to the product, because the void fill was specified to stop movement rather than to absorb impact.
Movement and impact are separate problems with separate answers. Fitted board stops movement; a corrugated pad, foam or a suspension insert absorbs impact. Most briefs need both.
Electronics Boxes hold mixed powered goods where the shared risks are static, drop damage and a compliance panel that has to be right. That is the starting point for the specification, because movement and impact are separate problems with separate answers. Fitted board stops movement; a corrugated pad, foam or a suspension insert absorbs impact. Most briefs need both.
In service they are used for mixed electronics catalogues, where one buyer is specifying packs for a range of products with quite different weights.

Device packaging is an insert problem before it is a box problem. The cavity is cut to the geometry of the item, and once the contents cannot move, the outer rarely needs to be heavier than a standard grade.
Single-wall E flute for small items where print quality matters, B or C flute once weight or drop height climbs.
The options we would consider for this format are below; movement and impact are separate problems with separate answers. Fitted board stops movement; a corrugated pad, foam or a suspension insert absorbs impact. Most briefs need both.
No single range — this is the format we quote when the product does not fit one of the named categories, so the dieline is cut from your dimensions rather than adapted from a stock size.
Send the contents rather than a box size. Stopping the product moving is treated as the same problem as protecting it. They are different: a tightly packed product with no cushioning still takes the full shock of a drop.
Cartons ship flat in bulk cases, which keeps freight cost low even on large runs.
Delivery windows are confirmed in writing when your order moves into production, and we flag any risk to the date before you approve rather than after.
Four things drive a quote more than anything else: the quantity, the print route, the board grade and the number of finishing passes. Dimensions matter too, but usually through how efficiently the shape nests on the press sheet.
Prices start from $0.30 per piece for large-volume orders. If a cheaper route exists we say so at quoting rather than after the invoice.
Send the product dimensions, the quantity and your deadline. What comes back is a board grade, a structure, a print method, a lead time and a written price — not a number on its own.
A dieline template follows, sized to your product. Prepress checks your artwork against it and issues a proof; nothing runs until you sign that off.
Ask for an unprinted sample if the question is fit, or a printed prototype if the question is colour. They answer different things.
Sample costs are normally credited against the production order.

Answers
Specification, minimums and lead times for electronics boxes.
Usually one board grade and one visual system can, but not one set of dimensions. We will normally cut two or three dieline sizes against the range and keep the board, print and finish common, which holds the shelf look together and still fits each product properly.
Only if boxes are arriving crushed. If they arrive intact with damaged contents, the product is moving inside and a heavier outer changes nothing. A fitted insert solves that case, usually at lower cost.
Yes, and for electronics boxes we prefer to specify both together. A cavity that holds the contents still often lets us drop a grade on the outer, so the pair can cost less than an over-specified box alone.
We can specify boards and liners appropriate for electronics handling and cut inserts to component geometry. Tell us the exact requirement your process operates under, since it varies considerably between component types.
Flat and glued along one seam, so they pop open on your packing line. That keeps freight cost down considerably compared with a pre-assembled structure.
3 to 5 business days after artwork approval, plus freight. Folding carton runs with applied finishes can take longer because each finish is a separate pass, and we confirm a firm date in writing with the quote.
Prices start from $0.30 per piece for large-volume orders. For this format the biggest levers are quantity, print route, board grade and how many finishing passes are involved. We quote each element separately so you can see where the money is going. An insert often lowers the total rather than raising it, because holding the contents still lets us drop a grade on the outer.
Yes. We can send a plain unprinted sample so you can check the fit and structure, or a printed prototype for colour and finish. Sample costs are normally credited against the production order. On electronics boxes the thing to check is whether the contents still sit tight once the pack is closed, because movement inside is what causes damage rather than the board grade.
Send the current specification or a physical sample and we will quote to match it rather than proposing an alternative you would then have to re-approve internally. A physical sample tells us more than a specification sheet — board caliper and coating are usually described loosely and measured exactly.
All 50 US states, the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia, on the same timeline everywhere: 3 to 5 business days of production after artwork approval, then 5 to 7 business days in transit. Every run is made to order and shipped directly to your address rather than pulled from stock, so you receive current production rather than whatever has been sitting in a warehouse. Freight is costed separately by weight, volume and destination. Tell us at quoting if the delivery point cannot take a pallet, and we will break the consignment into cartons instead.
Every run is cut to your dimensions — there are no stock sizes here. Send the product measurements rather than a box size and we will build the folding carton around them, then send a dieline template you can design onto.
We issue a dieline template sized to your product, prepress checks your artwork against it, and a proof comes back for sign-off. Nothing runs until you approve that proof, and folding cartons then take 3 to 5 business days.
