Why Ship Flat
Shipping and storing cartons flat instead of pre-glued saves warehouse space and freight cost, since hundreds of flat blanks fit in the space pre-formed boxes would need, then fold together by hand right before use.
The Natural Kraft Look
Uncoated kraft paperboard gives products a natural, minimal appearance that many brands prefer over bright white stock, and it takes one-color or full-color printing well for logos and product information.
Eco-Friendly Options
A 2025 McKinsey survey found that over 60% of U.S. consumers pick green packaging when they have the choice, and kraft paperboard is inherently recyclable and often made with recycled content.
Choosing a Kraft Format
A tuck-top style suits general retail products, a lock-bottom style adds strength for heavier items, and a mailer-style kraft box works for direct-to-consumer shipping with a self-sealing closure.
