françaisRigid boxes may not be the best option if:
1. You Have a Large Product
While luxury cosmetic rigid boxes are known for their sturdiness and durability, their design may not be suitable for large home appliances as their heavy weight may put pressure on the edges. In these cases, high-end corrugated packaging may be a more viable alternative for ensuring the safety of the product during transport.
2.You’re Not Yet Ready for a Large Expense
Luxury cosmetic rigid boxes are generally more expensive than other types of packaging due to their thicker and more specialized construction, as well as higher shipment fees. If you're not yet ready to invest in luxury cosmetic rigid boxes, you may want to speak with your manufacturer about the possibility of using a high-end corrugated box or a quality folding carton instead.
3. You Have Limited Time
If you have a tight schedule, it may be necessary to opt for carton boxes instead of rigid boxes, as the production time for rigid boxes is typically longer.
Different Types of Rigid Boxes
Rigid box packaging styles are either two-piece or hinged:
1. Telescope or Top-Load Boxes
With Corners
Luxury cosmetic rigid boxes come in different types, including partial and full telescope boxes. The full telescope box features a lid that extends nearly all the way to the bottom edge of the base, while the partial telescope box has a lid that covers the base midway. Some full telescope lids have thumb cuts or semi-circular cutouts, which make them easier to lift from the base.
Partial telescope boxes, like the classic shoebox and neck or shoulder box, have a lip that is typically one inch deep. Many commercially available luxury cosmetic rigid boxes are structured this way and can come in various shapes.
Meanwhile, the drawer-style box is a variation of the full telescope box. It has a slipcase going over the base instead of a lid on top and is suitable for items that need to be laid down to prevent damage or preserve their contents. Luxury cosmetic rigid boxes, like some high-end gift boxes, windowless shirt boxes, and drawer-style boxes, can be customized with unique shapes, specialty paper, printing techniques, coatings, and finishes to create a luxurious or high-end impression.
Without Corners
Luxury cosmetic rigid boxes are available in cylindrical styles, also known as rolled-edge tube packaging or tube packaging. These boxes feature either telescopic or shoulder-neck openings, and are ideal for packaging bottles, markers, other circular-shaped items, as well as powdered goods and irregular-shaped objects. Luxury cosmetic rigid boxes can also be used as an alternative to metal packaging. Some of these boxes have plastic or metal lids, and can feature plastic inserts or foils, making them a great option for beauty products.
2. Hinged Lid Boxes
With Cover on the Hinge
Luxury cosmetic rigid boxes come in various hinged lid designs, including the flip-top, cigar box, and book-style box. Hinged lid boxes have covers that are permanently attached to the base and can close via magnetic strip or other securing material. Some of these boxes, such as the flip-top or cigar box, don’t have a lip that covers the base, while the covers of the book-style box extend slightly beyond the base to create a hardcover book appearance. The clamshell design, on the other hand, has a lip that goes down partially or to the bottom edge of the base. Some hinged lid boxes also feature a cloth or other lining that covers the hinge joint.
No Cover on the Hinge
4.Custom Rigid Boxes: Different Types of Finish
Luxury cosmetic rigid boxes come in a wide range of structures, and can be customized with a variety of finishing options, including unique shapes, specialty papers, printing techniques, coatings, and finishes. The wrapping material can be designed to create a high-end look and feel, with options such as foil stamping, varnish, coatings, and other finishes to create a luxurious impression.
Partial vs. Full Finish
In the case of luxury cosmetic rigid boxes, the wrapping paper can either cover the entire surface of the lid and tray, or only the outer surface. If the wrap only covers the outer surface, the box is called a partial finish rigid box. In this case, the lips of the wrapping paper are folded and glued to the chipboard's interior, while most of the board remains bare and visible. On the other hand, a full finish rigid box has the chipboard wrapped in its entirety. The inner wrap may be colored white or another color depending on the design.
