Packaging box design tips
- Plan the dieline carefully: Mark front, back, side panels, lid, base, folds, glue areas and any inside-print areas clearly.
- Keep key artwork away from folds: Avoid placing important text, logos or QR codes too close to creases, edges or closure tabs.
- Design the unboxing moment: Use inside panels, insert cards, ribbons, stickers or tissue paper to make the box feel more memorable.
- Choose material by use case: Rigid boxes suit premium gifts, corrugated boxes suit shipping, and folding cartons suit retail packaging.
- Think about protection: If the product is fragile, include insert, divider, foam, sleeve or internal fit notes in your template.
