We print litho and digital on FSC folding boxboard up to 800 micron, then cut, crease and finish every carton in-house at our Lancashire factory. Order a single prototype or a full production run.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a folding carton and a corrugated box?
A folding carton is made from a single layer of printed boxboard and folds flat, which suits retail and product packaging up to 800 micron. A corrugated box uses a fluted construction for heavier transit. We print folding cartons in-house, not corrugated.
What is the minimum order for custom boxes?
There is no large minimum. We print short runs and single prototypes through to full production, so you order the quantity you need.
Is a sample available before I order?
Yes. We produce a physical prototype from your artwork, so you check size, fit and finish before committing to the full run.
Are your folding cartons recyclable?
Yes. We print on FSC and recycled boxboard and offer biodegradable lamination, so your cartons stay recyclable. We hold ISO 14001 environmental certification.
