Customization Options
Sizes
Every carton is cut to your product’s dimensions rather than pulled from a generic size chart, which cuts down on wasted space, void fill, and dimensional-weight shipping charges.
Materials
Single-wall corrugated suits most retail and e-commerce shipping; double- or triple-wall adds strength for heavier or fragile goods. SBS paperboard gives a smoother, more printable surface for retail-shelf boxes, and kraft stock offers a natural, eco-forward look.
Printing and Finishing
Flexo printing is cost-efficient for shipping-grade cartons with simple branding; offset and digital printing carry finer detail for retail packaging. Lamination, spot UV, and foil stamping are available for boxes that need to sell on a shelf, not just survive a truck ride.
Add-Ons
Handles make bulky items easier to carry, windows let customers see the product, dividers organize multi-item packs, and hang holes support peg-hook retail display.
Industries & Use Cases
Cardboard boxes from Crat Packaging serve e-commerce brands shipping direct to consumers, retailers needing shelf-ready display cartons, food and beverage companies, subscription box services, movers and storage companies, and manufacturers shipping bulk or industrial goods. If you need a use-case-specific box — for donuts, books, golf clubs, clothing storage, retail display, branded logo boxes, or boxes with handles — see our dedicated pages for those styles below.
