Customization Options
Handle Style
Die-cut handles are built directly into the box wall for a clean, no-attachment look; rope or ribbon handles with reinforced eyelets suit heavier or premium gift items.
Materials & Finish
Kraft keeps costs down for takeout and retail carry-out boxes, while SBS board or rigid stock with lamination and foil stamping suit gift and boutique packaging.
Branding
Full-color printing, plus optional window cutouts, showcase your product while the handle does the carrying.
Quality & Material Sourcing
Board weight, flute grade and film thickness are checked against your approved proof before a run goes into production, and again during finishing, so color, structural strength and add-ons match what you signed off on. If a spec needs adjusting once you see a sample in hand — a heavier stock, a different lamination finish, a tighter or looser fit — we can revise it before the full run ships, rather than after a large order has already been printed.
Industries & Use Cases
Retail boutiques, gift shops, bakeries and takeout restaurants, cosmetics brands and event/wedding favor businesses all use handle boxes for products customers carry away.

Why Wholesale Buyers Choose Crat Packaging
- Own US production facility — every box, including specialty stock, is made from scratch, never outsourced.
- No setup, plate, or die-cut charges on any order.
- Free design support from concept to print-ready proof.
- Low minimums and bulk pricing starting around $0.75 per unit, depending on size, material, quantity and finish.

Every order runs through our own quality checks before it ships, so the box you approve in the proof is the box that arrives. Because production happens at our own US facility rather than through a broker or outsourced print shop, our team can adjust a run mid-production, source a substitute stock quickly if a material is delayed, and give buyers a real answer on lead times instead of a generic estimate. That matters most for growing brands: a first order can start small, and reorders scale up on the same specs and pricing tier without renegotiating design or setup from scratch.
