Tell us your product and quantity. Sales confirms sample costs and timing.
Minimum order: 500 pieces for all box types. Please list quantities by size and artwork. No finished artwork needed to start. Get a quote ↗︎
Your written quotation defines the scope and exclusions for the actual project. Check delivery responsibilities ↗︎
Ordering several carton sizes or designs? Plan the range, quantities and file versions ↗︎
Start with the selling unit: one skincare product, a coordinated range or several items in one gift. YDP helps develop paper boxes and inserts made in China.
Start here for an individual skincare product. Measure the finished container with its cap, dropper or pump; choose the closure around the filled weight and packing method.
Insert decision: an internal paperboard support may help locate a narrow bottle or protect clearance around a dropper. It is not needed in every carton.
Compare folding carton fit ↗︎Keep logo placement, typography and colour rules consistent across cleanser, serum and face cream. Adapt the dieline and artwork to each container rather than enlarging one box for the entire range.
What can be shared? brand rules and an agreed material direction. Box size, insert and artwork approval remain specific to each SKU.
See the skincare carton packaging ↗︎Start here when products are presented together as one gift. A bottle, jar and cream tube need separate positions, finger access and enough clearance under the closed lid.
Trade-off: the presentation and packing format differ from individual folding cartons. Compare the complete set, insert and delivery format before deciding.
See the body care gift-set study ↗︎Shortlist up to three illustrative directions to compare in your brief, or skip this step. A shortlist is a set of ideas, not your final box specification.
A folding paper carton specified for one product size and artwork version.
A family of cartons with shared brand rules and SKU-specific specifications.
A rigid presentation with positions for complementary products.
One product description is enough to begin. Leave the structure open and we will review a suitable direction with you.

| Decision | The single-product carton | The coordinated range | The presentation set |
|---|---|---|---|
| Opening | Folding carton | SKU-specific cartons | Gift-set reveal |
| Best starting point | Individual bottles, jars or tubes with a defined retail presentation. | Skincare and beauty ranges with multiple sizes or artwork variants. | Launch collections, gift sets and multiple-product presentations. |
| Insert review | Review whether extra product support is required. | Record the support requirement separately for each product. | Develop positions around each component and the full set weight. |
| Finish direction | Agree paper, print and finish on a physical reference. | Review colour across the selected stocks and finishes. | Agree the relationship between the outer box and internal presentation. |
| Packing | Define how empty cartons and packed products travel. | Keep SKU identification visible during packing and receiving. | Evaluate component movement and the complete protective packing. |
| Key trade-off | Confirm the actual product profile, closure and print area before approving a dieline. | Track quantities and artwork separately; a shared palette does not guarantee a shared setup. | Mixed weights and heights need a complete-set fit and removal check. |
Explore the feel, the printed look and how your product sits inside. Choose a starting direction; the final combination is reviewed with your box and sample.
Start by choosing a folding carton for an individual item or a rigid presentation for a set. Record stock, thickness and surface reference separately for each SKU.
Explore materials ↗︎
Discuss printed areas, colour references and the intended finish, such as foil or an embossed detail. Mark each finish on the artwork and confirm its compatibility with the selected paper before approval.
Explore finishes ↗︎
Identify the products in each SKU or gift set. Record positions, weights and removal access; confirm whether an insert is needed for each configuration.
Explore inserts ↗︎Standalone insert orders need a scope review. A fitted display sample does not by itself establish transport performance.
Use the insert preparation guide ↗︎Discuss your box and insert ↗︎Have a reference photo? Share it with your product. You can leave material and finish choices open.
Discuss my materials & fit ↗︎Start with fit, artwork and colour approval for each SKU. Then see the relevant work, manufacturing route and order steps.
Share your product or reference photo. We can discuss a suitable construction and which physical samples or project details are available for your review.

Versioned sample scope, approval record and production specification.

Approval milestones, dispatch plan, shipping exclusions and receiving requirements.

Discuss this for my order ↗︎Use these questions to prepare the next conversation. Unknown details can remain open in your first brief.
Build a category brief ↗︎List each product, dimensions, filled weight, artwork variant and order quantity. Our minimum order is 500 pieces for all box types; keep each SKU specification clear.
Give each SKU a versioned artwork file and an owner for text and barcode approval. Confirm print areas, finish layers and dieline versions before sampling.
Different papers and finishes can change perceived colour. Agree what the sample approves, retain the approved reference and review repeat orders against it.
Prepare this information for each size or artwork variant. The example rows describe the information needed, not production specifications.
| Record | What to provide | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Product & fit | SKU name, actual L × W × H, units and filled weight | Each product must fit its own approved structure. |
| Quantity | Pieces per size and artwork variant | Review manufacturing setup and quantity separately. |
| Artwork | Dieline version, artwork version and approval owner | Keep text, print and finish layers linked to the right SKU. |
| Colour & finish | Physical reference, paper and requested finish | Review consistency across the whole range. |
| Packing | SKU labels, assortment and delivery destination | Support correct identification and packing. |
List up to eight SKU lines. Leave quantities or dimensions blank when unknown. Minimum order: 500 pieces for all box types. Please list quantities by size and artwork. The subtotal helps describe your range; it is not an order confirmation.

These are your preferences, not an automated specification or a feasibility approval.
Skip the questions and talk to us ↗︎Start with a folding carton for an individual bottle, jar or tube, or a rigid presentation for a gift set. Product weight, insert support, packing method and budget determine the suitable construction.
Our minimum order is 500 pieces for all box types. List quantities by size and artwork so we can confirm the scope of your mixed-SKU order.
This site covers paper packaging and inserts. Cosmetic formulas, primary containers and filling are outside the default scope.
Brand elements may be shared, but layout, content and dielines need approval for each SKU. Do not stretch one approved file to fit another size.
The brand must provide and approve the text and intended market requirements. Packaging artwork approval is not certification of product claims.
