Just launched: Space saving, luxury packaging for larger items

by Nicole Hines July 20, 2017 2 min read

We identified the growing need for a packaging solution that could serve for larger items but not take up more storage space. Which is why we have launched our A3 Lift Off Gift Boxes, which take up to 5 times less space than an equivalent rigid box. This makes it ideal for smaller businesses that need a luxury packaging solution for larger items, and they can rather focus their storage requirements and storage costs on their products and not the packaging.

The larger capacity makes this gift box ideal for items such as couture and vintage clothing, gourmet food and wine hamper gifts, wedding gift hampers, handbags, and larger soft furnishing items.

If your products require larger packaging, here’s why you should use our new box size:

  1. New A3 Lift Off Lid folding gift boxes are unique, incredibly clever and offer all the huge space saving advantages of a folding gift box but with the traditional features of a lift off lid box.
  2. The base folds completely flat and sits within the depth of the rigid lid, enabling it to take up a fifth of the space of an equivalent size rigid box. This means you can now use your storage for more products, rather than packaging.
  3. For superior luxury quality, the 3mm thick board is covered in a high quality matt paper – see our Product Specifications tab on each product page for full information.
  4. These gift boxes are available in four colours: our popular black and white, natural kraft for eco-friendly packaging requirements, and our unique pale ivory for all wedding and baby hamper gifting needs.
  5. We have also specifically designed a protective mailing carton for this box size so that you can send your finished product by courier to your customers, and know that your items will arrive in the same condition that you sent them in.
  6. Your customers will experience a seamlessly aesthetic unboxing experience as the inside lid is the same colour as the outside box, so no ugly white lid linings!
  7. The lid fits snuggly under the base of the box, making it ideal for product display.
  8. Custom brand your packaging to suit your branding and specific product requirements. See our Printing Pagefor more custom branding information and example images.

 

We are currently the only company in the UK offering a high quality A3 gift box, so you know where to come to for this unique gift box packaging solution! View our websitefor more information on ordering this gift box for your business.
