Overview of Custom Rigid Box Order Process

We have standardized the whole rigid box customization workflow from requirement collection, quotation, sampling, mass production to final shipment. This step-by-step guide helps international buyers understand how we work on custom rigid gift box orders.

Step-by-Step Custom Rigid Box Order Steps

Step 1: Share requirements for custom rigid box order

Before confirming your custom rigid box order, we will send you pre-production samples for checking color, printing and box structure. This step helps avoid mistakes and ensures your rigid gift boxes meet your expectations before mass production

Send us your basic information at the very beginning. You can provide:

• Product dimensions or inner box size
• Box style: magnetic box / book box / lid & base box / drawer box
• Printing, logo craft: hot stamping, embossing, spot UV, lamination
• Material requirement and quantity
• Your artwork file (AI / PDF format preferred)

Our sales and technical team will review your request and reply with a formal quotation quickly.

Step 2: Quotation & Project Confirmation

After we confirm all details including size, material, surface finish and quantity, we send you the quotation. Once you accept the price, we confirm the project schedule and sampling plan.

Step 3: Artwork Check & Sample Production

Our technical team checks your artwork for printing feasibility. If needed, we offer suggestions to adjust the design to fit mass printing. After artwork confirmation, we start making pre-production samples for your reference.

Step 4: Sample Approval & Mass Production

Once you approve the physical sample, we arrange mass production according to the confirmed sample and specifications. During production, we keep you updated on production progress regularly.

Step 5: Inspection & Shipment

When mass production is finished, our QC team carries out full inspection for box size, printing, surface finish and structure. After inspection passes, we arrange packaging and shipment by sea, air or courier based on your requirement.
Every stage of your custom rigid box order process will be tracked by our project manager.

Every custom rigid box order differs in size, artwork and surface finishing. We assign a dedicated project manager for each order to update you throughout the whole custom rigid box order process. We understand overseas buyers care a lot about lead time, quality control and transparent communication.
