What materials should be selected when customizing color boxes?
Due to the advantages of aesthetics, delicacy, and good hardness, color box packaging can quickly present the characteristics and appearance of products in a comprehensive and detailed manner, and has been favored by many product distributors. So, let the editor of Langcheng Printing briefly introduce several common types of color boxes and their inspection standards.
At the deeper level of the core concept of low-carbon environmental protection, health issues are becoming increasingly critical, and emerald green color boxes have become a development trend. The emerald green color box and printing ink are the first, and many people are gradually concerned about the harmful effects of printing ink on color box printing. In order to better alleviate customer concerns, the printing industry pays attention to non-toxic color box printing and moves towards emerald green printing. For example, flexographic printing is used. Many companies have already chosen offset printing ink, which is basically non-toxic.
Color boxes can be roughly divided into three categories: pit boxes, card boxes, and model room decoration boxes:
1. Card box, commonly single powder card box. Excluding single powder cards or leather cards, PVC film boxes, and PET film boxes. This type of card box is generally treated with a surface layer after printing, and then glued into shape. This type of color box is suitable for products with smaller volume and lighter weight, which require mass production and manufacturing, such as electronic device products, skincare products, pharmaceutical products, etc.
2. Pit box, commonly known as gray card mounted pit paper. The specified compressive strength varies depending on the actual size of the color box. Choosing different weights of gray cardboard and different types of cardboard, naturally, there are also packaging paper mounting pits. This type of pit box is usually made of tissue paper that has undergone surface treatment after printing, and then glued into shape. If it is an airplane box, it can be formed without the need for glued boxes. This type of pit box is suitable for products with large and heavy volume, and there is a lot of mass production and manufacturing, and the cost is also relatively low. For example: electronic device products, hardware products, shoes and clothing, etc.
3. Model room decoration box. In the field, it is generally also called a handmade box. Some products that require packaging may have different names and requirements. This type of small box is of exquisite quality and high-end. Natural cost fees are also more expensive than others. It depends on the size, material, and complexity of the processing technology of the product.
The selection of packaging materials for color boxes is not only diverse, but also accompanied by the changes of the times and the rapid development of high-tech. Many new packaging box materials have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and the term customized packaging box orders has long been familiar to many professionals in the field.
