Products and customization

How do I determine the dimensions of my packaging?

Measure the length, width and height of your product, then add a little clearance (0.25 in to 0.5 in). Some variation is to be expected with custom packaging. Contact our team and we can help you determine the ideal dimensions for your project.

How should the boxes be stored?

Cardboard packaging has specific storage requirements to preserve its quality and its shape. Its strength and its behaviour are affected by external factors. To ensure optimal conditions, follow these recommendations:

  • Suitable temperature: Store cardboard boxes between 5°C and 30°C. Avoid sudden temperature changes in the storage area. Keep the boxes away from any heat source (such as radiators) and protect the cardboard from direct sunlight.
  • Controlled humidity: Keep relative humidity between 30% and 70%. Protect cardboard packaging from water. Avoid sudden changes in humidity.
  • Clean, dry surface: Store unassembled boxes on pallets or platforms rather than directly on the floor.
  • Keep the protective film: Leave the film wrapped around the boxes until the last one has been used.
  • Open with care: If you use sharp tools to open the film, be careful not to damage the box.
  • Balanced weight: If you are storing unassembled boxes, you can flatten them with a flat object to prevent warping. Remember that corrugated cardboard has a strength limit. Never place heavy objects or pallets on unassembled boxes, and avoid stacking boxes too high on top of each other.
