Reading notes.
Practical Packaging Decisions.
Artwork Status And Print Needs
Artwork should be print-ready at 300 DPI with CMYK colors. Outline all fonts or provide font files. Keep critical copy at least 0.125 inches from trim edges. Include barcodes in the proof.
Material And Finish Selection
SBS cardstock works for standard retail cartons. Kraft suits natural or minimal branding. Corrugated is for mailers. Rigid board creates premium presentation. Match finish to brand position and budget.
MOQ Reality Check
Most folding cartons start at 100 units. Mylar bags start at 250 units. Paper tubes start at 500 units. Confirm the MOQ against your structure and finish before requesting a quote.
Proof And Approval Process
Request a digital or physical proof before approving the full order. Review colors, text, positioning, and insert fit. Once approved, artwork is locked for production.
First Order Savings
First orders can include 25% off after packaging details are reviewed. Send a quote request to confirm eligibility and learn about sample kit options.
