Low Minimum Order Quantity — Start With Just 100 Boxes
Here is something that frustrates a lot of small business owners: most rigid box manufacturers will not talk to you unless you order thousands of boxes. We do things differently. Our minimum order quantity starts at just 100 boxes, because we believe a small candle brand deserves beautiful packaging just as much as a big company does.
So, how much do custom rigid boxes cost? As a general idea, they usually start from around $1.50 to $2.00 per box at the minimum order size. And here is the part most people do not know: the price per box drops quite a bit as your order grows. The reason is simple. Costs like setup, die-cutting, and printing plates are paid only once. Spread those costs across more boxes, and each box becomes cheaper. The table below shows how this usually works:
| Order Quantity | Price Per Box | Typical Savings | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 100 – 499 boxes | Starting rate | — | New brands and small product launches |
| 500 – 999 boxes | Lower ↓ | You save about 20–25% per box | Growing brands and seasonal orders |
| 1,000 – 4,999 boxes | Much lower ↓↓ | You save about 40–45% per box | Established brands and retail stock |
| 5,000+ boxes | Best rate ↓↓↓ | Maximum bulk savings | Wholesale buyers and distributors |
One honest note: These numbers are only an example, not our final rate card. They simply show you how pricing scales with quantity. Your exact price depends on the box size, the board thickness, the wrapping paper, the printing, and the finishes you choose. Send us your details, and you will have an exact quote in a few hours.

Rigid Box Styles We Manufacture
Magnetic Closure Rigid Boxes
You know that soft click when a magnetic lid closes? Customers love it. It is a small detail, but it makes opening the box feel like a little ceremony. This style works beautifully for cosmetics, tech products, and gift sets, and the lid stays firmly closed during shipping, so your product arrives safe. You can see all the sizes and options on our magnetic closure boxes
Two-Piece Rigid Boxes (Lid and Base)
This is the classic luxury format, think of a premium shoe box. The lid and base are separate pieces, and the customer lifts the lid off to reveal the product inside. There is a short pause in that moment, a little bit of excitement. That is exactly why this style is so popular for clothing, gift sets, and premium products.
Custom Rigid Gift Boxes
Our rigid gift boxes are made for the moments that matter — holidays, weddings, and corporate gifting. Add a ribbon pull, a printed inner lining, or a foam insert, and the box becomes part of the gift itself. We make them in every size, from small jewelry boxes to large gift hampers.
Drawer / Slide Rigid Boxes
A drawer box opens by sliding a tray out of a sleeve, just like a matchbox. It feels smooth and looks elegant, which is why it is a favorite for jewelry, chocolates, and other small luxury items.
Collapsible Rigid Boxes
Here is a practical one. A collapsible rigid box gives you the same premium look, but it folds flat when you are not using it. That saves real money on storage and shipping. It is a smart pick for online stores that also use custom mailer boxes and do not have warehouse space to waste.
What Is a Rigid Box Made Of? (Materials and Specs)
Let us keep this simple. A rigid box, also called a setup box, is built from thick chipboard or greyboard, usually 2mm to 3mm thick (1200+ GSM). It arrives already formed in its final shape, and it does not fold or bend — that is where the name “rigid” comes from. We then cover the board by hand with the wrapping paper of your choice:
- Art paper wrap: a smooth surface that prints bright, full-color designs really well.
- Textured wraps: finishes that look and feel like linen, leather, or soft-touch material. People notice these the moment they touch the box.
- Kraft wrap: a natural brown finish that organic and eco-friendly brands love. You can see more options on our Kraft boxes.
Finishes you can choose: matte or gloss lamination, soft-touch coating, gold or silver foil stamping, embossing, debossing, and spot UV.
Inserts you can add: EVA foam, velvet, cardboard partitions, and silk lining. Every insert is cut to hold your product perfectly, so nothing moves around inside the box.
Custom Printed Rigid Boxes With Your Logo
Your box does a lot of quiet work for your brand. It sits on shelves, appears in photos, and gets passed from hand to hand all with your name on it. We print custom rigid boxes with your logo using both offset and digital printing. You can go for foil stamping if you want a shiny metallic logo, embossing if you like a raised texture you can feel, or full-color printing matched exactly to your brand colors with Pantone. And yes, small orders are welcome, logo printing is available even at our 100-box minimum. If you need branded packaging beyond rigid boxes, take a look at our custom printed boxes to see every style we make.
Luxury Packaging for Every Industry
Pick up a custom luxury rigid box and you will feel it right away, it is heavy and solid in the hand. That weight quietly tells the customer, “this product is worth the price,” before they have even opened it. Brands from all kinds of industries use our luxury packaging:
- Jewelry and watches: velvet-lined drawer boxes and custom ring boxes
- Candles and perfume: thick-walled candle boxes that keep glass jars safe during shipping
- Cosmetics and skincare: magnetic closure sets with foam inserts. These pair nicely with our cosmetic boxes for complete product lines
- Electronics and gadgets: boxes with die-cut inserts that hold each item firmly in place
