Gift boxes come in all shapes and sizes, but the following nine classic box shapes basically lay the foundation of a gift box. Under the basic structural framework, evolution and design, you can create a variety of creative gift boxes.
1.Aircraft box
It is named because of its unfolding shape resembles an aeroplane. Aircraft boxes use structural design to achieve one-piece moulding, easy to make and easy to fold, do not need to paste the box, so it can save the processing cost, and at the same time, it has a relatively strong resistance to pressure, drop resistance, crash resistance, and has a solid stability. Aircraft box cost is not high, widely used, commonly used in express packaging.
2.Drawer type box
Drawer box is light and flexible, beautiful appearance, can be side by side multi-layer or single layer design, using the push-pull way to open or put away, the storage capacity is particularly large.
Divided into two parts of the inner box and sleeve, open and close in the way of extraction, using more paper, slightly higher prices, and the box with a better sense of texture of the same packaging, more of a ceremonial sense of opening, applicable to the vast majority of categories of products.
3.Heaven and earth box
Heaven and earth box generally consists of two parts, not a one-piece moulding, by the cover box and the bottom of the box, the two separated, the cover for the sky, the bottom for the ground, the upper large and lower small buckle to use.
One of them is the inserted side sky and earth box, the size of this type of box is the same as that of the bottom box, and the bottom box is equipped with equal-height inserted sides, so that there will be no offset and misalignment when the lid box and the bottom box are matched together.
As mentioned above, it is the same as the drawer type box as a good texture packaging method. Tiandi box can also be made into double thickness to increase the sturdiness, suitable for fine gift boxes, such as jewellery, food gift boxes, etc., which can significantly enhance the sense of quality of the contents.
In addition, we see the round box shape is also mostly the structure of the box, but the shape of the rectangle into a circle or oval shape. Such as hexagonal/octagonal/polygonal box, in fact, is also essentially a canopy structure, but the shape is pentagonal or hexagonal polygonal composition, so that the heterogeneous fine gift boxes will give people a stable atmospheric feeling, a deep impression.
4. Hand-held box
Some commodity packaging volume is large, in order to facilitate the transport of products and consumers to carry, the packaging will be designed as a portable structure.
The bottom of the hand-held box is inserted into the bottom box to increase the load capacity, the upper hand-held design, is the most commonly used box type of gift boxes, the most important feature is easy to carry, easy to disassemble, often used in accompanying gifts in the product packaging.
5. Shaped box
Shaped box is unique and individual in structure, often are special customised. Unique packaging materials, packaging structure, packaging container shape, if enough novel and interesting, more likely to attract attention.
6. Window Box
As the name suggests, open window box digs holes and opens windows, and opens the required windows on one or more sides of the box, which can be big or small, and the shape can be designed at will. Inside the paste transparent PET and other materials, or to add other transparent material design, in order to fully display the contents, perspective products, so that the product intuitively displayed in front of us, easy to observe, increase the credibility of the contents.
Or the window design and the overall packaging, product content linked together, with alternative ideas, to form a visual impact, reflecting the brand's temperament, so that the whole set of gift boxes are no longer bland, and even produce consumer impulse.
7. Flip-top box
The flip-top box is divided into single flip-top and double flip-top, double flip-top consists of a bottom box and two cover surfaces, single flip-top has only one cover surface.
Double flap box consists of left outer box and right outer box symmetrically, with inner box on the inside, which requires a relatively complex process, more delicate and design than single flap box, and the structure will be more stable.
In essence, the flip-top box is actually a combination of the sky and earth cover box and the inserted sky and earth cover box, the difference is that the back of the box is glued with tissue paper, and it can be opened and closed freely by turning it back and forth.
8.Book shaped box
Book shaped box is designed with one side opening style, like a hardcover book opening from one side. The box structure consists of outer leather shell (panel) and inner box (bottom box), leather shell ring inner box one week, the bottom of the inner box and the back wall, with the leather shell glued on both sides, the unglued top part can be opened. According to the size and function of the customised gift box to take materials, some book-shaped box need magnets, iron sheets and other materials, is one of the box options for high-grade gifts.
9.Socket box
Socket type box is currently one of the most common box type, upper and lower lugs, the upper part and the bottom of the same, mostly folio, but also can open the same side, convenient packaging, low production difficulty, cost is also lower, but versatile, suitable for lighter weight goods.
In addition to the basic box type style is rich, can also be based on different box type through the superposition of materials, again enhance the packaging quality of the gift box. For example:
01
Leather box: box blanks made of density board, with PU material laminated outside the blanks, shaped like a leather box.
02
Velvet box: box framed with velvet, structure, shape of different, the internal material is mostly grey board.
