Large Popcorn Boxes

Why Do People Love Large Popcorn Boxes So Much?

Popcorn boxes are honestly pretty versatile. Yeah everyone thinks movie theater first but they show up at way more places than that. Birthday parties, graduation parties, baby showers, corporate events, carnivals, sports games, fundraisers. 

Plus Printers has made popcorn packaging for 10 years. We work with small movie theaters, event planning companies, party supply folks, schools doing fundraisers, businesses hosting events. The boxes use FDA-approved materials because they are touching food. We're talking proper food grade paperboard here, not just whatever's cheap.

Here's the main reason people come to us. No minimum orders. Order 100 from us. Order 500. Or whatever your actual requirements are.

We Have Different Boxes For All Types Of Businesses And Their Requirements

Standard large popcorn boxes are the most used ones. That rectangular shape that's wider at the top than the bottom. Red and white stripes are traditional but you can do whatever colors and designs you want. These can contain a ton of popcorn, they are easy to hold while you are eating.

Custom paper popcorn boxes let you print whatever you want on them. Your company logo for corporate events. Birthday kid's name and age for parties. School mascot for fundraisers. Movie theater branding. Whatever. Full color printing means you are not limited to simple text. Photos, graphics, complex designs all work.

Popcorn boxes for party use often come in fun themes. Superhero designs for kids' birthdays. Elegant patterns for weddings. Holiday themes for seasonal events. You can match them to whatever theme the party has going on. Makes everything look more coordinated and thought out.

Popcorn paper cones have a different vibe entirely. Instead of the box shape you get a cone like an ice cream cone but for popcorn. These are popular at carnivals and outdoor events. They are easier to hold while walking around. Take up less space when you are storing them too.

Then there's stuff like the barbie popcorn bucket trend that went viral. Movie tie-in packaging becomes a collectible thing. If you are doing a themed event or promotion, special shaped containers can be a huge draw. People keep them and reuse them which means your branding sticks around longer.

Movie Theaters Need Strong, Cool Looking and Reliable Packaging

Popcorn box packaging for theaters needs to be strong enough to hold hot buttery popcorn without getting soggy. The grease resistance matters a lot. Nobody wants their box getting soggy and collapsing right in the middle of the movie. We use materials that handle grease and moisture without breaking down.

Large is the most popular but you might also want medium and small. We can make different sizes so customers can pick what fits their appetite and budget. Theaters make good money on concessions so having options that work for different customers helps sales.

Custom branding turns every popcorn box into advertising. Your theater name and logo on every box means people remember where they had a good time. They take photos of the popcorn box and share them on social media. Free marketing basically.

Get Popcorn Boxes For Your Parties As Well!

Birthday parties for kids almost always have popcorn now. Parents set up a popcorn bar or station and let kids fill up boxes. It's easy, not too expensive, and kids love it. Popcorn boxes for party use in the birthday kid's favorite colors or with their name printed on them make it feel more special. Graduation parties, baby showers, bridal showers all use popcorn boxes too.

Here is how popcorn boxes are used at different events:

What Materials Do We Use For Our Popcorn Boxes?

Popcorn boxes need to handle hot food and grease. The paperboard we use is treated for grease resistance. Otherwise the box gets soggy and gross and nobody wants that.

Standard weight around 14 to 16 points works for most popcorn boxes. Thick enough to hold the weight, thin enough to keep costs reasonable. If you are doing really large boxes or need extra durability you can go up to 18 points.

All materials are FDA-approved for direct food contact. This isn't optional, it's required. We only use approved paperboard and inks. Eco Friendly Popcorn Box options are available if that matters to your brand or event. Recycled paperboard, biodegradable coatings, soy-based inks. 

Get Your Packaging Custom Printed By Plus Printers

Plain white boxes are boring. Custom printing turns them into something people notice and remember. We do full color printing so you can use any colors, photos, graphics, whatever you want there.

For businesses your logo needs to be prominent. Make sure people can read your company name easily. Include your website or social media handles. Every box becomes a little billboard.

Inside printing is less common on pink popcorn boxes but it's possible. Open the box and there's a message or design inside. For special events this adds a nice surprise element.
