Packaging trends are continually evolving. Rigid setup boxes have experienced a BOOM in popularity in recent years as brands look to differentiate using premium product packaging. Below are some of the most popular rigid setup box structures to consider for your next packaging project.
Full telescope rigid boxes are very common. Telescope refers to the way in which the rigid box is assembled. The lid of the box “telescopes” over the base of the box.
Full telescope means the lid fully telescopes the base. A thumb notch can be added to the lid to make opening the box easier.
When opened, the lid detaches from the base leaving you with two components.
This is the reason this style of rigid box also falls under the category of 2-Piece Rigid Box.
Partial telescope rigid boxes are similar to full telescope rigid boxes. The difference: the lid for the partial telescope rigid box only “telescopes” over part of the base of the box.
A thumb notch is less common in this style of box since its design makes it naturally easier to open. When opened, the lid detaches from the base leaving you with two components.
This is the reason this style of rigid box also falls under the category of 2-Piece Rigid Box.
Shoulder rigid boxes are a type of partial telescope rigid box. An additional tray is glued to the inside of the base that protrudes up past the top of the base. The protrusion creates a “neck” and the top edge of the base creates a “shoulder”.
The additional tray can also be placed inside of the lid to give the box a different look while keeping the function the same.
The neck can be extended so that it is visible even when the box is closed. This is often referred to as a “neck reveal” and can give the packaging a unique presentation and branding opportunity since the neck can be printed with the same graphics as the box.
Both of these designs consist of 3 components, and therefore falls under the packaging category of a 3-Piece Rigid Box.
Slipcase is the term used to describe a rigid base tray that slides into a sleeve or another rigid tray that is oriented differently. The result is a box that opens like a drawer.
This type of rigid box can give the customer a unique unboxing experience. The slipcase can also be used to store the product long-term as they are typically very durable and easy to open / close.
Hinged rigid boxes have the lid and base of the rigid box hinged together.
The construction consists of a rigid base tray with a flat chipboard sheet attached to the back of the tray. This style is also referred to as a cigar box.
In addition to packaging, this style of rigid box is often used for marketing and sales kits. The inside of the lid can be printed providing marketing real estate or additional space to tell your story.
Hinged binder book boxes are comprised of two components: a book cover and a rigid tray.
The rigid tray is glued to the book cover, which gives the box a book / binder look. The spine of the book cover can be attached to the tray or left unattached depending on the desired presentation and function of the packaging.
In addition to packaging, this style of rigid box is often used for marketing and sales kits. The inside of the lid can be printed providing marketing real estate or additional space to tell your story.
Typically, products that require a high level of protection or that are positioned as premium items in the market are best suited for rigid setup boxes. This includes luxury goods like jewelry, high-end electronics, premium confectionery, fragrances, and boutique cosmetics.
Yes, rigid setup boxes are highly customizable in terms of size, shape, cover materials, interior linings, closures, and printing. This flexibility allows brands to create a unique and memorable packaging experience that aligns with their product and brand identity.
The sustainability of rigid setup boxes depends on the materials used. Many are made with recyclable paperboard and can be covered with sustainable materials.
Rigid setup boxes are very durable due to their thick paperboard construction and are designed to protect the product during shipping and handling. They are also often kept by consumers for storage, further extending their usefulness.
The cost of rigid setup boxes varies depending on size, materials, quantity, and customization. They are typically more expensive than folding carton packaging due to their premium construction and the more complex manufacturing process.
Production times for custom rigid setup boxes can range from several weeks to a few months, depending on the complexity of the design and the current workload of the manufacturer. It’s recommended to plan well in advance, especially for large or detailed orders.
Rigid setup boxes can significantly enhance brand perception by providing a sense of exclusivity and high quality. The durability and elegance of the packaging reflect on the product and brand, often leading to a more premium positioning in the consumer’s mind.
