What should we pay attention to when making a customized carton?
1. The most basic conditions: determine the length, width and height of the carton, General three-layer Carton, paper thickness in 3.5 mm or so, five-layer carton in about 7 mm or so, so you first have to measure the length, width, height of your actual items. Then add the thickness of the carton (0.5 mm at the height of the carton) . Is the carton size, the general carton factory default is the size of the carton. Outer box size design: General Design for the width of the data is small only for the most economical material. So according to their cargo, we must tell the carton factory, you said the size is the size of the outer box, or the size of the inner box.
2. Choose the material of the carton, choose the material of the carton according to the weight of your goods and your cost. The Carton is made of cardboard, so you need to understand the concept of cardboard, our ordinary cartons are made of corrugated cardboard. Corrugated cardboard is divided into tissue paper, corrugated paper, core paper and inner paper. The quality of the material is generally related to the weight per square meter. The heavier the weight per square meter, the better the quality, paper weighs 120G, 140G, 170G, 200G, 250g. General Carton paper from the appearance of smooth, feel hardness probably through the resolution of paper, the whole market paper will not be too much.
3, The choice of carton thickness, carton classification: Carton thickness is generally three, five, seven, nine layers. The thickness of the three layers is about 0.3 mm, the thickness of the five layers is about 0.7 mm, and the thickness of the seven layers is about 0.9 mm. The third floor is called single pit, the fifth floor is called double pit. Reinforced Carton thickness is the same, only the hardness of the points. The load-bearing capacity of the carton mainly depends on the transverse ring compression strength of each layer of base paper, not necessarily the more layers the better load-bearing performance.
4. Printing problems, in general, the larger the surface area of the printing, the higher the cost. Of course, also depends on the number of colors, carton once printed will not be able to modify. So be sure to check with the carton manufacturer multiple times the print content. Some minor errors can be covered with stickers or warm water stickers of the same color as the carton, but they are not pretty enough, give the most accurate printing materials possible, and supervise the carton manufacturer to print strictly according to the requirements.
5, Sample box, if the intention of cooperation with the carton manufacturers to determine, quoted paper and cooperation reached consensus, you can ask the carton factory to provide sample box, carton pattern generally not through printing, mainly to determine the paper, size and process quality.
6, The issue of minimum order, Carton factory has a minimum minimum order problem, the minimum order is 30 square meters. Different Carton factory from the order is different. It is generally recommended to make more cartons at a time. The less you order, the more expensive it is.
7, Special tips, Carton hardness: As long as it is continuously wet or rainy days, even the original hard carton will become soft (new custom is the same) .
8.Carton color, all carton board color can not be 100% the same as the last color, if the color requirements are very high, must communicate with the carton manufacturer.
