Corrugated packaging · Zhengzhou, China
We build custom printed corrugated packaging for small brands — structural advice, die-lines, prototypes and short runs. Printing, die-cutting and gluing all happen in our own plant in Zhengzhou, and you talk to the person who runs your order.

What we make
Everything here is corrugated board — printed, die-cut and glued. If your product needs a different structure, that is a conversation, not an exception.
Line 01 · Most requested
High-strength corrugated with die-cut ventilation windows, an integrated handle and a reinforced base that holds its shape when loaded. The box overseas buyers understand instantly — farm shops, farmers markets, organic food, subscription fruit.
Line 02 · E-commerce
The two structures online sellers already know. Crash-lock assembles in one motion with no tape. Tear-strip gives the customer a clean open — and a box that is easy to return in. Printed outside, plain inside, so your product is the first thing seen.
Line 03 · Retail & gifting
A rigid look at board cost. Separate lid and base, wrapped or laminated board, with foil stamping or embossing on the lid panel. For cosmetics, tea, confectionery, corporate gifts and anything that has to look like more than its price.
Line 04 · Industrial
A wooden crate you can fold flat. Double-wall board with a reinforced base, built for machinery parts, auto components and furniture — lighter than timber, cheaper to freight, and exempt from ISPM 15 heat treatment. No fumigation certificate, no port delay.
Structures
Choose a stock structure — we cut a new die for your artwork, so the structure itself costs you no new tooling. If none of the eight fit, send a sketch and we will build the die.
Schematic drawings, not technical dielines. Ask for the full die-line files when you are ready to design artwork.
01
Handle built into the blank. Fruit, bakery, gift sets.
02
The workhorse retail carton. One piece, glues flat.
03
Locking tabs on both ends. Food, small appliances.
04
Base snaps up on assembly. Bottles and heavier contents.
05
Built-in tear strip for a clean open. E-commerce, returns.
06
Assembles in one motion, no tape. Apparel, beauty, subscription.
07
Rigid look at board cost. Gifting and premium retail.
08
Send a sketch or the product itself. We build the die.
Board & flute
Too thin and the box sags on the shelf. Too thick and you are paying to ship air. We pick the flute from what is inside the box and how far it has to travel.
| Flute | Thickness* | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| E | ~1.5 mm | Retail cartons, fine print, shelf presence |
| B | ~3 mm | Mailers, printed gift boxes, good print surface |
| C | ~4 mm | Shipping cases, all-purpose strength |
| A | ~5 mm | Cushioning for fragile contents |
| BC | ~6–7 mm | Bulk loads, export cases, wood-crate replacement |
*Typical industry values. The exact board grade, grammage and test values for your job are confirmed in the quotation — not assumed from a table.
Print & finish
How it works
Most of the friction in packaging sourcing comes from talking to a different person at every stage. Here, one contact carries your job from the first sketch to the loaded container.
A die-line, a sketch on paper, a competitor's box, or just the product you need to pack.
We come back with a structure suggestion, a board recommendation and a written quote with the terms spelled out.
A plain white sample to check fit, then a printed proof. Nothing runs until you approve it.
Print, die-cut, glue and fold. We photograph the run and check it against the approved sample.
Export cartons or pallets, FOB or CIF, documents prepared. You get the loading photos.
Straight answers
Most buyers ask the same seven things before they will send artwork. Here they are, answered without the marketing padding — including the ones where the answer is "it depends".
It depends on the structure and how many print colours you use, so we quote it per job rather than publishing a number that turns out to be wrong for your box. Tell us the structure and quantity you have in mind and you will get the real minimum in writing, with the price steps for the next two volume bands. Short runs are the reason most of our customers talk to us.
Yes, and in two stages: a plain white sample first, so you can check the fit and the strength without paying for print, then a printed proof for colour and artwork. Production only starts after you approve the physical sample — not a 3D render of it.
A PDF or AI file with fonts outlined and at least 3mm bleed, laid out on our die-line. If you do not have a die-line yet, send the product dimensions and we will produce one for you to design on. A rough sketch on paper is also a perfectly good starting point.
Yes — flexo in one to four spot colours is the normal route on kraft, and it holds up well for logos, single-colour slogans and simple illustrations. Full photographic imagery needs a litho-laminated wrap instead, which is available depending on the mill and the quantity. We will tell you which one your artwork actually needs before you commit to either.
Yes. ISPM 15 applies to solid wood packaging, which is why timber crates need heat treatment or fumigation and arrive with a certificate. Corrugated board is outside that scope — no fumigation, no certificate, no hold at the port. For machinery and furniture exporters this is usually the single strongest reason to switch from wood to heavy-duty corrugated.
Certification sits with the plant and with the board supplier, and the scope matters more than the logo. Tell us which standard your buyer requires and we will send the certificate that matches it, or say plainly that we cannot meet it. We do not put badges on this page that we cannot back with a document.
Typically a deposit to start production and the balance against the shipping documents, with the exact terms written into the quote. We quote FOB or CIF and name the port in the quote rather than promising a route up front. Export cartons, pallets, labelling and documents are handled on our side; you get loading photos before the container leaves.
Where it is made
Printing, slotting, die-cutting and gluing under one roof — the same building where your sample is cut and your run is checked. Ask for a video call and we will walk the floor with the phone, not with a marketing script.
What we are, and what we are not. We are a small plant, not a twenty-year giant with a sales department. That is the trade you are making: fewer people between you and the machine, changes that can actually be made after the run is scheduled, and the person who quotes your job is the person who can move it up. If a job is genuinely too big or too complex for our line, we say so and quote it through our partner mill in Zhejiang — we would rather lose a commission than a customer at the loading dock.
The questions buyers ask
Certificates are held by the plant and they change — audits lapse, scopes get narrowed, a supplier swaps its board source. So we keep logos off this page until we can send you the certificate that matches the scope your buyer asked for.

Send a photo of the product and an idea of quantity — a die-line is useful but not required. You will get a structure suggestion and a written quote, not a brochure.
