Turn retail space into a high-impact sales point with wholesale custom PDQ display boxes. We size them around your product, weight, count, and shelf plan. Custom Boxes Tech has served packaging buyers since 2002, offering exclusive custom packaging services to grow brands.
Choose custom cardboard display boxes for retail counters for cosmetics, snacks, small electronics, stationery, wellness items, and promotional products. We size the tray and header around your product rather than force the item into a fixed format. Get a fast custom quote from CBT for your size, stock, print, finish, and quantity today.
A durable PDQ structure keeps products upright and easy to reach. Our team works with paperboard, cardstock, kraft stock, and E-flute corrugated board. Product weight and retail use guide the stock choice.
10–14 pt stock suits light items and compact counter trays.
16–18 pt stock adds more stiffness for medium product loads.
20–28 pt stock supports wider trays and taller printed headers.
E-flute at about 1.5–1.8 mm adds stronger wall support.
Trial sizes can include 6 × 4 × 8, 8 × 6 × 10, and 10 × 8 × 12 inches.
Send artwork at 300 DPI and 100% scale for better prepress control.
Add about 0.125 inch (3 mm) bleed when artwork reaches a cut edge.
Keep key logos about 0.125–0.25 inches inside cut and score lines.
Share product weight in ounces or grams so our team can match the board.
Our 100-unit MOQ supports small retail tests and new SKU launches.
CBT can create custom display boxes for small retail products with dividers, front cutouts, header panels, or tear-away sections. Our team checks product count before preparing the dieline.
Stock Choice | Typical Thickness | Best Use | Estimated USA Price at 500 Units |
Light cardstock | 10–14 pt | Sachets, slim packs, samples | $0.55–$1.10 each |
Mid cardstock | 16–18 pt | Cosmetics, snacks, small goods | $0.70–$1.45 each |
Heavy paperboard | 20–28 pt | Wider trays, heavier packs | $0.90–$1.95 each |
E-flute corrugated | About 1.5–1.8 mm | Shipping plus retail display | $1.35–$3.25 each |
Use these USD ranges for early planning. Size, ink coverage, tooling, inserts, freight, and finishes can change the quote.
Vivid print helps shoppers spot the product fast. We use CMYK printing for full-color graphics and Pantone color matching. They work well when you need a tighter color target. Front panels can carry product benefits, counts, or a QR code. Headers can carry the logo.
Choose wholesale custom cardboard display boxes with inserts when each item needs its own slot. Inserts can reduce movement and keep rows in order.
Our print and finish options include:
Matte lamination for a soft, low-glare surface.
Gloss lamination for more shine and color depth.
Spot UV for gloss contrast on selected graphics.
Foil stamping for metallic details.
Embossing for raised brand elements.
Debossing for pressed tactile details.
Die-cut windows for direct product view.
Perforation lines for tear-away retail formats.
Custom Boxes Tech reviews artwork, bleed, score lines, logo position, and barcode space before production. This check helps reduce layout errors.
Finish Option | Main Effect | USA Budget Allowance Per Box* |
Matte or gloss lamination | Surface protection | +$0.10–$0.35 |
Spot UV | Local gloss contrast | +$0.12–$0.50 |
Foil stamping | Metallic detail | +$0.20–$0.80 |
Embossing or debossing | Raised or pressed detail | +$0.15–$0.70 |
Die-cut window | Product viewing area | +$0.15–$0.60 |
Use these ranges as planning allowances for many 500–1,000 unit jobs. Coverage, tooling, box size, and volume can change the cost.
Volume changes the cost per piece and can support more cost-efficient retail runs. That makes custom packaging in bulk for retail launches useful for brands that supply many stores or repeat promotions.
Quantity | Printed Cardstock PDQ | E-Flute PDQ | Premium Finish PDQ |
100 | $1.50–$3.50 | $2.75–$6.00 | $2.25–$5.25 |
250 | $0.95–$2.50 | $1.85–$4.50 | $1.55–$3.75 |
500 | $0.65–$1.85 | $1.35–$3.25 | $1.10–$2.85 |
1,000 | $0.45–$1.35 | $0.95–$2.55 | $0.80–$2.10 |
5,000+ | $0.30–$0.85 | $0.65–$1.75 | $0.55–$1.45 |
These USD figures give USA buyers a planning range, not a fixed quote. UK and Canadian buyers can request shipping and import-cost estimates. CBT keeps approved specs consistent across repeat orders.
Share the product width, depth, height, weight, and unit count. Our team uses those figures to set tray size, wall height, and header space.
Use custom boxes for PDQ packaging with dividers when bottles, tubes, sachets, or small cartons need fixed rows. Dividers help products stay upright and simplify restocking.
Three useful layouts include:
Counter tray: Fits checkout areas and compact SKUs.
Header display: Adds a taller print panel for branding.
Tear-away shipper display: Combines shipping support with fast shelf setup.
For promotions, custom pop up display boxes for retail shelves can add height and print space. We match the layout to product size and shelf position.
24/7 customer care for order and artwork support.
Free design support for layout and dieline guidance.
Free sample option for material or structure review.
7–12 business days after artwork approval.
MOQ of 100 boxes for lower-volume launches.
Quality assurance checks for size, folds, print, and finish.
After-sale services for repeat orders and order support.
USA, UK, and Canada order support.
Our experienced customized PDQ display packaging experts review product weight, display count, board choice, and print needs as one job. This helps avoid weak trays, wasted space, and poor header placement.
We place score lines, locking tabs, glue areas, and die-cut edges around the product load.
Brands that need printed custom display boxes for checkout counters can use a low front lip for access and taller side walls for support.
Choose custom printed boxes for PDQ packaging when one display needs product details, branding, barcode zones, and store-facing messages. We keep key art away from folds when the layout allows.
Custom Boxes Tech can support one SKU, several designs, or larger retail programs without changing the core build unless the product changes.
Use custom packaging in bulk for multi-store orders when several locations need one format. Larger runs can lower unit cost, but quantity should match sales pace and storage space.
Our team also supports branded custom pop up display boxes for promotions when a launch needs more shelf presence. A compact footprint helps busy counters.
