Customization Options
Card Format Sizing
Boxes are built to your exact card dimensions and stack count, from a single greeting card to a full trading card deck box.
Rigid vs. Foldable
Rigid stock suits collectible and premium card sets; foldable SBS board keeps costs lower for retail greeting card boxes.
Finishing for Presentation
Foil stamping and spot UV highlight card designs and brand marks on a compact, high-visibility box.
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
Greeting card publishers, trading card and game companies, stationery brands and gift card retailers use custom card boxes to protect and present their card products.

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.
