Which Custom Pillow Boxes Are Right for Your Product?

Your packaging will only have an impact if it is relevant to your product. When you are choosing pillow packaging, you must be aware of the weight, width, thickness, fragility, and other characteristics of your products. We guide you with the best pillow packaging for your products. 

Custom pillow boxes are generally useful for products that require presentation without much structural support. However, some pillow boxes are customized with insert options to prevent movement. Jewelry and glass items usually require custom inserts to improve the presentation of the product. 

It is crucial to understand that pillow boxes are not the perfect choice for every product. Our packaging experts guide with the appropriate packaging format for better presentation and protection of your product.

Custom Pillow Box Styles and Structural Options 

The pillow box packaging can be modified through different features such as materials, dimensions, die cuts, inserts, and printing. We offer a wide range of styles in pillow packaging. We offer personalized pillow boxes specifically built around your product. The popular pillow box styles include:

Standard Pillow Boxes 

Standard pillow boxes have a curved profile with folding end sections. These boxes are suitable for lightweight retail products and small accessories. We customize these boxes with accurate dimensions of your product and custom printing. 

Kraft Pillow Boxes 

Kraft pillow boxes are a suitable choice for brands that want a natural appearance for their handcrafted and organic products. These boxes are suitable for handmade soaps and artisan products. We manufacture these boxes with sustainable materials to support your claims for eco-friendly packaging.  

Pillow Boxes with Window 

A die-cut window is integrated into boxes to allow customers to see the product without even opening the box. Pillow boxes with window are a suitable choice for soap, candy, and confectionery items. We offer different window shapes based on your products. We also offer custom die-cut options to match your brand logo and design elements.

Pillow Boxes With Handles

A die-cut handle turns your pillow box into a convenient carry package for gifts and other promotional activities. Pillow boxes with handles are carefully designed with the right board to carry the weight of the product. 

Pillow Boxes With Inserts 

Inserts keep the internal position of the product fixed. They make the presentation of the product more consistent. We offer a wide range of insert options based on your product requirements. 

Custom Pillow Boxes for Different Products

The packaging requirements change with the type of products. Some products require food-grade materials, and some require a window cut out to enhance the visual appeal of the box. Similarly, delicate cosmetics and jewelry items require internal support to avoid movement inside the box. 

Pillow Boxes Soap Products 

Soap bars are a natural application for pillow boxes due to their pillow-shaped design. We customize pillow packaging for soaps with high-quality printing and moisture-resistant coatings to prevent the soaps from melting in humid and hot conditions. 

Pillow Boxes for Jewelry 

Jewelry packaging is commonly manufactured with premium finishings that position your product as luxurious. We customize pillow boxes for rings, necklaces, and other jewelry items with inserts to prevent shifting inside the box. 

Pillow Boxes for Cosmetics 

Pillow boxes are used for cosmetics when the product dimensions and weight are compatible with the format. We offer fully customized pillow boxes with full-color printing and premium finishes to match the appeal of the cosmetic packaging. 

Pillow Boxes for Confectionery 

Food packaging must be food-safe for direct contact. We customize pillow boxes with seasonal artworks and brand patterns to match the exact brand colors.

Pillow Boxes for Gift Sets 

Gift sets often require additional internal support. A custom insert keeps the product organized till it reaches the recipient. We manufacture pillow boxes for gift sets with specific add-ons such as ribbons. 

Pillow Boxes for Events and Occasions 

Small pillow boxes are also customized for weddings, birthdays, baby showers, and promotional events. We create pillow packaging with colorful artwork with free design support. So, if you do not have the artwork ready, we will create it from scratch. 

Pillow packaging is ideal for compact-sized products. Our packaging experts help you choose the best pillow packaging according to the size and weight of your product. 

Custom Pillow Box Sizes and Dimensions

The right size is crucial to keep the product presentable and protected inside the box. The size and dimensions of the product change with the type and shape of the product. We customize pillow boxes in small, medium, large, and fully custom formats to match the requirements of the products. 

We manufacture pillow boxes with custom dimensions, especially around your products with unusual shapes. Our flexible MOQs allow you to test your product effectively with your custom packaging. 

Custom Pillow Box Materials

Material has a key role in overall packaging performance. It defines the print quality, rigidity, and other specific features of the pillow packaging. At Plus Printers, we offer a wide range of FSC-certified and food-grade materials. 

1. White Paperboard provides a clean surface for retail branding. We offer full customization in this material based on the board grade. 
2. Kraft paperboard offers a natural brown appearance for brands prioritizing sustainable packaging. The printing on kraft paper produces different results than the white substrate. Our packaging experts help you choose the best printing option for your brand.  
3. Recycled paperboard is made from recycled fiber and supports the 100% eco-friendly claims of a brand. We customized these boxes with the right board strength and thickness to ensure that it keeps your products safe. 

Choosing Pillow Box Thickness: GSM vs. Caliper

GSM and caliper are technical packaging terms with different properties. The weight of the paper is measured in GSM. It is useful in comparing material weights, but it does not define the thickness, rigidity, and overall box strength. Two boards with the same GSM can have different caliper strengths. Similarly, caliper refers to the thickness of the paper.  It is the most relevant component of the packaging because it influences the folding, creasing, and finished packaging dimensions. 

• We help you choose the right paperboard that supports the weight of your products in pillow packaging. We have worked with 500+ businesses and designed pillow boxes for different kinds of products. We ensure that every pillow box is designed to hold the weight of your product effectively. 

Custom Pillow Box Printing Options

Custom printed pillow boxes determine how effectively your packaging communicates your brand identity. At Plus Printers, we offer advanced printing methods that help in creating pillow packaging with your desired artwork colors.  We offer 

• Full-color CMYK printing to produce a wide range of colors for cosmetics and beauty brands' packaging. 
• Pantone and spot color printing to match the precise brand color with accuracy on every single batch.  
• Offset printing for high-graphics results with large production volumes at a cost-effective price. 
• Digital printing for short production runs with multiple designs and fast turnaround times. 
• Inside printing to create a unique opportunity for brands to use the empty space inside the box.

The selection of the wrong printing method can destroy the physical appeal of the brand. Our packaging experts guide you with the most suitable printing method for your material. For instance, if you are customizing corrugated pillow boxes and not choosing flexographic printing, it can destroy your end results. 

Custom Pillow Box Finishing Options

Finishing is the last step in the customization of your packaging. It changes the surface appearance and gives your boxes a premium touch. We offer a wide range of protective and decorative finishes that enhance the visual appeal of the box and extend the life of the packaging.

We offer: 

• Matte lamination that works perfectly for beauty brands and luxury-inspired minimalist designs. 
• Gloss lamination makes colors visually brighter, and it is suitable for youth-oriented packaging.
• Soft- touch lamination is associated with premium branding, cosmetics, and jewelry packaging. 
• Spot UV creates a glossy coating on specific design elements, logos, and product names. 
• Foil stamping is useful in adding decorative details to logos and typography. 
• Embossing debossing is used to create effects on brand logos and symbols. 

Your custom pillow boxes with logo and design elements will have a luxurious feel if they have the right combination of materials, printing, and finishing. Our packaging experts guide you in choosing the best combination of finishes to create a unique brand identity. 

Sustainable Custom Pillow Box Options

Sustainable packaging is a complete system rather than a single material label. There is a huge difference between 100% recyclable and eco-friendly packaging. At Plus Printers, we create your packaging with FSC-certified materials. Coating and laminations can influence the recycling of the materials. We use soy-based inks and water-based coatings to support your sustainability goals. Moreover, the right size can help you reduce material consumption and unnecessary space.

Our custom pillow boxes wholesale prices allow you to grow effectively while competing with your competitors in the market.

Are Custom Pillow Boxes Durable Enough for Shipping?

Standard pillow boxes are made from 14 to 18 pt SBS paperboard. This material is not designed to withstand stacking or impact resistance like corrugated shipping boxes. However, you can customize pillow boxes with corrugated cardboard inserts to improve protection, and it requires a snug fit to keep the products safe during handling.
