Custom Boxes
We design and produce custom corrugated boxes optimized for product protection and sustainability. Our RSC (Regular Slotted Container) boxes use minimal material while maintaining structural integrity. Clients benefit from reduced shipping costs and eco-friendly solutions made from 100% recycled content.
Sustainable Packaging
Our sustainable packaging solutions include FSC-certified materials, water-based inks, and plastic-free alternatives. We help brands transition to recyclable paper mailers and right-sized corrugated containers. This reduces environmental impact while maintaining brand aesthetics and functional performance.
Structural Design
Our experts create structurally sound packaging that minimizes material use and maximizes protection. We analyze flute types, board thickness, and closure mechanisms to optimize durability. This ensures safe delivery while reducing costs associated with damage claims and returns.
Cost Reduction Analysis
We conduct comprehensive cost analyses covering inbound freight, storage, and shipping expenses. By optimizing package dimensions and materials, we help clients reduce total packaging costs by up to 40% without compromising quality or brand presentation.
Ship Testing
Our ISTA-certified drop testing simulates real-world shipping conditions to identify weaknesses. We test nine orientations from 30-inch heights to ensure package integrity. Clients receive actionable recommendations to achieve near-zero damage rates during transit.
