Mailer boxes

All of our mailer boxes are made of cardboard. This means that the choice depends mostly on your vision of the packaging. Here are some tips:

• Eco boxes are the most “raw” variant in our range. They include a black imprint, but we strongly suggest to include only small graphics. Eco Mailer Boxes are perfect for minimalist brands, as well as emphasizing eco-friendly conduct. They are also our cheapest product – in the case your business is only starting, a small order of Eco Mailer Boxes is the perfect solution.
• Eco White is similar to Eco, but the cardboard is whitened. Eco White looks more elegant, and a more spacious black imprint will look amazing. The orders of Eco White range from very artsy to minimalist – it’s for brands with a bold style of communication.
• Eco Color is where the raw cardboard and the full CMYK palette meet. The colorful imprint is performed on a whitened cardboard. Eco Color will not give you the most saturated imprint, but instead – it imbues the packaging with an interesting shade.
• Full Color is our premium solution. This variant of Mailer Boxes includes a thicker wall, while the imprint is performed on a white layer. Full Color Mailer Boxes are also available with various finish options – matt and glossy foil and white inside. These boxes are perfect for upscale brands.

Mailer Boxes vary in terms of sizes. This means that there is plenty of products that can be shipped in mailer boxes. Here’s a list of our standard sizes and possible products that can fit.

• F23 and F33 are the smallest ones in the range of Mailer Boxes. Those sizes are perfect for small items like jewelry, accessories like wallets or packed candies.
• F44 and F45 are medium-size boxes. We can recommend them to e-commerce owners of cosmetics shops, small gadgets etc.
• F52 and F56 can serve well in sending DVDs, books and other items that are rather flat. These sizes provide a unique exposure of such items.
• F62, F71 and F79 are designed for shipping clothing. F62 is perfect for lingerie and some smaller items, whilst F71 and F79 are the best choices for t-shirts, jerseys and all kinds of garments.
• Our biggest sizes of Mailer Boxes – F93 and F112 – can perfectly serve as subscription boxes.

Unfortunately not. Eco Color boxes are printed only on whitened cardboard. However, we plan to include an option for imprint on natural cardboard in the future.

The main difference is the printing technique (UV for Eco Color boxes). In Eco Color mailer boxes, the imprint is performed directly on the whitened cardboard. In case of Full Color mailer boxes, the imprint is performed on an additional layer of carton (carton GD2 with 180 g/m2 grammage), which is then coated to the cardboard walls of the box. Such technique causes Full Color boxes to have thicker walls and more saturated palette of colours than Eco Color.

Tip: The imprint technique used in Eco Color manufacturing may cause that the cardboard will subtly absorb the paint. This may cause the colours to look little less saturated than in the Full Color version. Additionally, Full Color option includes options for several add-ons – adding matt or glossy foil and changing the colour of the inside of the box to white instead of standard natural. Those additional options are not available in the Eco Color version of mailer boxes.

In the case of mailer boxes, we use three-layer corrugated cardboard – natural or one-sided bleached.

For the F23, F33, F44, F45, F52, F59, F62, F71, F79, F93 sizes and for all non-standard sizes smaller than F93, we use the cardboard with E flute (approx. 2 mm) and grammage of 340 g/m2. For the F112 size, we use the cardboard with B flute (approx. 3 mm) and grammage of 450 g/m2.

On request we can make boxes in a non-standard size we can make cardboard boxes with wave E or B.

The Full Color Boxes have an additional layer of underlay on which to print. For this purpose we use high quality GD2 cardboard with a weight of 210 g/m2.

In the Full Color variant we offer an additional layer of foil – matte or glossy.

Mailer and shipping boxes are made of corrugated cardboard; three- or five-layer.

Classic product boxes are made of high quality Chromocard paper, and Two piece product boxes are made of Arktika paper.

Our mailer boxes are offered in twelve standard sizes. The external dimensions, internal dimensions, paperboard grammage and weight for each size can be checked on the page with mailer boxes.

Mailer and shipping boxes:
By default all interiors are made of brown, natural cardboard.
In case of Full Color mailer boxes we also offer white interior as an add on.

Product boxes:
By default, the interior of the product boxes depends on the base texture you choose. We offer two variants – white and natural kraft. However, you can also order full-color CMYK printed interior with your own pattern. If you design your packaging in the box editor, you can also pick the solid colour of your choice. If you want to design something more advanced than the uniform colour, than use the ‘design on a dieline’ option.

Some types of our boxes can be ordered in other sizes than those available in our standard offer. Please contact us if you need packaging with other dimensions than the standard products.

If you want to order a custom sized mailer box (type FEFCO 427 or FEFCO 426) the minimum order is 100 pieces. In this case the cost of creating a new die-cut template will be added to your first custom sized order (€240 net minimum). It also might happen that we will need some more time to complete your order.

Product boxes are also available in different sizes. In this case, the minimum order is 1000 pieces and the production time is set individually.

A mailer box is a paperboard packaging designed to store and send your products. Thanks to interlocking flaps and wings, it is easy to assemble and requires no adhesive tape to be assembled and closed. Its double side walls make it durable and more resistant to transport than other types of paperboard packaging. This way it can be used many times.

The type of mailer boxes offered by Packhelp is the FEFCO 427.
