Box Dimensions
We provide both internal and external dimensions so you can confidently check product fit before ordering.
Useful Tip: Use a sheet of A4 paper to represent the internal footprint of the box (31.5cm × 24cm) to test your products. This works well for fixed-size items such as boxed products or glassware, and for soft items that require folding. Use a ruler to confirm the internal height of 6.5cm.
- External Size: 33cm × 25cm × 7cm
- Internal Size: 31.5cm × 24cm × 6.5cm

How Do Magnetic Gift Boxes Stay Closed?
Magnetic gift boxes contain small magnets in the front closure flap and metal discs inside the box body. When the flap closes, the magnets align with the discs and hold the box securely shut with a satisfying snap-shut closure.
Is There a Weight Limit for Foldabox® Gift Boxes?
Our larger gift boxes are strong enough to hold several kilograms, making them suitable for gift hampers and heavier products. If your items are particularly heavy, we recommend ordering a sample first to confirm the box meets your requirements.
Can Each Gift Box Be Printed With a Different Name or Design?
No. Our printing methods require a set-up process, so all boxes in a print run must use the same design. The minimum order quantity for printed boxes is 24 units.
Many customers personalise boxes individually using vinyl transfer machines such as supplied by Cricut.

Useful Branding Information for Adding Your Logo to Stock Gift Boxes
-
DO NOT order boxes online by adding them to your basket and paying if you want a custom printed logo. Online orders are for plain, unbranded stock boxes only.
- Visit our Printing Page for example print images and detailed information on the various print techniques available.
- Complete the simple on-line print estimate for a quick price guide. Follow the easy steps to submit your details and progress an order.
- 24 boxes per size is the minimum order for printing. Orders of 144 boxes or more (boxes are packed in 12s) are the most economical due to fixed origination costs, regardless of quantity.
- Printing is offered on all gift boxes available from stock. Mailing cartons cannot be printed.
- Allow approximately 1–3 weeks for custom printing from receipt of usable artwork and payment to delivery of printed boxes.
