A custom sliding box gives a product a smooth drawer-style reveal. It uses an outer sleeve and an inner tray. It is useful for cosmetics, jewelry, candles, and small electronics and can use rigid paperboard, SBS paperboard, chipboard, inserts, ribbon pulls, thumb cuts, foil, embossing, or soft-touch lamination.

Custom Boxes Tech makes each custom sliding box around the product, not around a fixed template. The sleeve gives you brand space. The inner drawer holds the item in place. This style works well for cosmetics, jewelry, candles, tech items, gift sets, wellness goods, and small retail kits.

Call CBT today and build custom printed boxes that fit, sell, and stand out.
A slide drawer box for premium retail products gives the buyer a smooth pull-open experience. Add a ribbon tab, paper pull, or thumb notch based on the look you want.
CBT can match the structure to light, medium, or heavier items. Our team checks product size, weight, insert depth, and hand space before we prepare the dieline. A retail packaging solution with rigid paperboard construction also gives you room for logos, short brand text, or care details.
Full-color art works well with CMYK printing for branded paper boxes.
A tray packaging layout for cosmetics and gift sets can hold jars, bottles, cards, or tools in one neat view. We can print the outer sleeve, drawer face, inner wall, or insert card.
Print or Finish | Best Use | Estimated Add-On in USD |
|---|---|---|
CMYK print | Full-color art | $0.10–$0.35/box |
Pantone spot color | Brand color control | $0.12–$0.40/box |
Foil stamping | Logo or border | $0.20–$0.65/box |
Spot UV | Gloss detail | $0.18–$0.55/box |
Emboss or deboss | Raised or pressed logo | $0.25–$0.75/box |
Custom Boxes Tech can size the drawer around a single item or a full kit. Small boxes can fit rings, samples, or USB products. Mid-size boxes can fit candles, skincare, or tech sets. Larger formats can hold apparel pieces and gift collections.
Use packaging trays with fitted product cavities when you need each item to stay in one set place. A wrap around tray packaging design for retail gift kits can also support several items in one presentation.
Example Size | Common Use | Estimated Price at 500 Units |
|---|---|---|
3” × 3” × 1.5” | Jewelry, samples | $2.10–$3.10 |
5” × 4” × 2” | Cosmetics, candles | $2.35–$3.60 |
7” × 5” × 2.5” | Gift sets, tech | $2.70–$4.20 |
9” × 7” × 3” | Apparel, kits | $3.20–$5.10 |
12” × 9” × 4” | Large gift packs | $4.10–$6.80 |
Use these figures for early planning. Board, art, insert type, finish, freight, and order volume can change the quote.
The opening style changes the whole feel of the pack. A ribbon pull gives a softer look. A thumb notch keeps the front simple. A paper tab can support a more natural paper-based design.
A drawer sleeve box packaging setup with custom inserts can separate jars, cables, cards, or small accessories. For a more upscale look, custom sleeve boxes with fitted dividers can keep each product easy to see when the buyer opens the drawer.
Our design team also checks the pull area so the drawer does not feel too tight.
Surface finish affects look and touch. Matte cuts glare. Gloss adds shine. Soft-touch gives the paper a smooth feel. Foil adds a bright metal detail.
Custom luxury sleeve boxes with soft-touch paper and foil logos suit fragrance, jewelry, skincare, and gift products.
A premium packaging finish with spot UV logo detail can add striking contrast without covering the whole sleeve.
Higher order volume can lower the unit price because setup costs spread across more boxes. We keep the 100-unit MOQ useful for test runs, new products, and small launches.

For UK and Canada orders, we can quote the same box spec for your delivery point. Freight, duties, and local tax can affect the landed cost.
A custom luxury sleeve box for jewelry and beauty products can use a soft insert, card platform, or molded paper support. The goal stays simple: hold the item well and make the opening feel premium.
Use packaging trays for multi-item gift sets when you want each product to have its own space. Our team can leave room for a sample, care card, or small note without making the drawer look crowded.
Use 1 cavity for a single hero product
Add 2–6 sections for gift sets
Use 1.5–2.5 mm board for many rigid retail formats
Add a 10–20 mm ribbon pull based on box size
Keep 5–10% extra units for promotional use when needed
A 100-unit order gives new brands a practical way to test size, print, and buyer response. We also offer a free sample option based on project terms.
A slide drawer box with custom logo printing can help you test a new SKU before a larger run. Custom sleeve boxes for small retail launches also let you keep the same brand style while changing size or insert shape for later products.
Start at 100 units
Use 7–12 business days as the standard production window after approval
Test 1 sample before a larger run when the project needs a physical check
Keep 2–4 mm of fit allowance where the insert material needs it
Plan 5–10% extra stock for launch support when needed
Test Order Size | Simple Print | Print + Premium Finish |
|---|---|---|
100 units | $380–$520 total | $520–$850 total |
150 units | $510–$750 total | $690–$1,125 total |
200 units | $640–$940 total | $840–$1,400 total |
250 units | $725–$1,100 total | $1,025–$1,800 total |
These USA-based ranges help with budgeting. Size, finish count, insert style, and shipping can change the price.
A retail drawer box can sit inside a shipping carton for online orders. The shipper takes most transit wear. The branded box keeps the product presentation ready for the buyer.
A drawer sleeve box packaging design for e-commerce products can use a snug insert to reduce movement. Protective packaging for online retail orders works best when the insert, drawer, and outer shipper all match the product weight and shape.
Our team can also review corner strength, drawer fit, and insert height before production.
Product Weight | Suggested Board Range | Common Use |
|---|---|---|
Under 0.5 lb | 1.5–1.8 mm | Jewelry, samples |
0.5–1.5 lb | 1.8–2.0 mm | Beauty, candles |
1.5–3 lb | 2.0–2.2 mm | Tech, gift sets |
3–5 lb | 2.2–2.5 mm | Larger retail kits |
Our team confirms the best stock after checking the product size and structure.
Food gift packs need careful material choices. Use the rigid drawer box as the branded outer pack when the paper, ink, or finish does not suit direct food contact. Put the food in a suitable inner wrap, liner, or food-contact tray.
Frozen food packaging trays for sealed food packs can support a chilled or frozen inner product. A wrap around tray packaging format for food gift presentation can add structure around sealed items.
For food projects, tell us how the product sits inside the pack and whether any part touches food directly. That helps us choose a safer structure for the intended use.
Our team can match the insert to the product, not just the box size. Card inserts suit many retail items. Molded fiber can support paper-led designs. Foam can give soft support where the product needs it.
Insert Choice | Good For | Estimated USD Add-On |
|---|---|---|
Card insert | Cosmetics, candles | $0.15–$0.45 |
Molded fiber insert | Gifts, wellness | $0.30–$0.85 |
Foam insert | Jewelry, tech | $0.40–$1.20 |
Printed divider set | Multi-item kits | $0.25–$0.70 |
Ribbon pull | Premium opening | $0.08–$0.25 |
A tray packaging insert for product fit control can cut product shift and improve the opening view. Custom luxury sleeve boxes with fitted insert support can give high-value products a more refined look.
Other useful details include:
Matte lamination: about $0.12–$0.35 per box
Soft-touch finish: about $0.20–$0.60 per box
Foil logo: about $0.20–$0.65 per box
Embossed logo: about $0.25–$0.75 per box
Custom insert: about $0.15–$1.20 per box
CBT keeps the order process direct. Send the product size, quantity, art, delivery country, insert needs, and finish choice. Our team checks the dieline, print notes, size, board, and insert fit.
A frozen food packaging tray solution for outer branded gift packs needs different material planning from beauty or jewelry packs, so we review the use case before quoting. A packaging tray system for repeat wholesale orders can keep the same outer look while changing the inner fit for each SKU.
These details help buyers compare size, cost, print, board, finish, and order volume without guessing.
