Get answers to common questions about custom rigid boxes, or visit our Help Centre for further information.What materials are best for custom candle boxes?
Candle boxes are typically made from paperboard (250–400gsm), E or B-flute corrugated board, or rigid chipboard. The choice depends on your candle weight and whether the box is for shipping, retail display, or gifting.
Can I customize the size and structure of my candle boxes?
Yes. Each box is fully custom-sized to your candle jars or tins. You can choose from tuck-end, sleeve, rigid, or mailer-style structures, along with custom inserts for snug fit and protection.
How do I prevent candles from melting or leaking during shipping?
Choose coated or laminated boards that act as a barrier against heat and moisture. Secure the candle with foam or cardboard inserts and avoid exposing packages to direct sunlight or prolonged warmth.
