BESPOKE

Tiny Box Maker specialises in bespoke boxes tailored to you and your brand. All box types can either be foil printed or digitally/litho printed depending on your requirements.

All of our boxes are made in the UK which means our lead times are usually around 3-4 weeks. We aim to respond to all quote requests within 24 hours of receiving them. Our factory operates stringent quality control procedures to ensure you get your presentation boxes or corporate gift boxes as you want them, on time. Please be aware, our semi-bespoke boxes will always be cheaper than bespoke custom boxes because we already hold the templates for these styles. For personalised gift boxes, the tooling needs to be made custom to your specifications.

The process of making bespoke boxes required the set-up of six machines and is required regardless of the quantity of the boxes. Therefore, the initial set-up cost will be the same whether you are ordering 1 or 1000 boxes. Please remember to factor this into your packaging budget. We love nothing more than helping our customers create the perfect packaging for their business

Our most popular box styles include, the classic box and lid, clamshell style, shoulder style, book style, hinged lid style, slip case style and magnetic closure style. To view a gallery of our bespoke boxes, click here.

Please remember dimensions are internal and if you require us to replicate a stock box you’ve seen, we can only match colour approximately.

Additional elements...

Do you have multiple elements to what you are offering? For example, do you have a range of cosmetics that need to be held in place in trays or foam inserts? The appearance of your presentation boxes when the customer opens your packaging is important for your business credibility and the first lasting impression from your buyers. We offer different types of inserts to suit your business needs, for example; foam inserts, card inserts or satin lining. Foam inserts are made from foam and cut to your specifications to hold products in place, card inserts offer the same solution as a more eco-friendly option since they are made from recycled card and satin lining adds extra elegance to your box - the satin material lines the interior of the box and holds your products in place. Not only do we offer internal additions, we also have external extras. Box sleeves are cardboard sleeves that fit your box, printed or unprinted to protect or reveal the box underneath. Alternatively, you could have a belly band which is a card 1/4 sleeve, printed or unprinted.
