If you'd like to add your own logo to our stock gift boxes, it's easy and results look stunning!

Visit our Printing Page for example print images and detailed information on the various print styles available. You can also click the 'Print on this Box' Icon on each Product Page.
Please DO NOT order boxes on line by adding to your basket and paying for them if you want a custom printed logo. Buying boxes on line is for plain unbranded stock only. If you order on-line, the boxes will be despatched without print and it may be too late to stop them if you e-mail us separately asking for print.
Complete the simple on-line print estimate for a quick price guide and follow the steps to submit your details and progress an order. Follow the highlighted link above, or go to the Printing Page and click the big pink button at the top of the page, 'Get a Printing Estimate'.
Adding a logo enables you to personalise stock gift boxes without the large volume commitment and long lead time needed for a fully made to order box.
24 boxes per size is the minimum and 144 boxes or more (boxes are all packed in 12's) is the most economic quantity due to fixed origination costs that apply, no matter how few or how many boxes are printed.
Printing is offered on all gift boxes available from stock. Mailing cartons cannot be printed.
Stock boxes are already manufactured, so printing options are limited to the outside and inside lid of the box only.
We can use foil, print ink to match a Pantone colour, or deboss your logo. Multiple print colours and CMYK print are also possible depending on registration, design complexity and box colour.
We can’t bleed print off the edges of the box, we need a min. 1cm - 2cm border from the outer edge of the print to the edges of the box lid.
Allow around 2-3 weeks for custom printing from receipt of useable artwork and payment to delivery of printed boxes. If you submit an on-line quotation via the estimate form on our printing page you will have the opportunity to specify the delivery date you would ideally like.

♻️ Eco Credentials

Foldabox gift boxes are crafted with sustainability in mind, using materials that are approximately 92% recycled by weight.

The greyboard (the rigid inner board that forms the box structure) is 100% recycled and certified.

The artpaper used on our Black, White, Pale Pink, and Pale Blue boxes, as well as the special papers used for other colours, are certified sustainable.

Our Natural Kraft Gift Boxes use kraft paper that is 60% recycled. Due to material limitations, 100% recycled kraft paper cannot be used as it tends to crack along the joints.

The paper used on our Black, White, Pale Pink, and Pale Blue boxes is finished with a matt PP lamination, which should ideally be removed before recycling.

Note: Our Black and White Single and Double Bottle Boxes, and Black and White No Magnet Boxes are unlaminated, requiring no paper removal prior to recycling - only the ribbon on slot-closure versions should be removed.

We recommend removing magnets, ribbons, and decorative closures before recycling. While ribbons are technically recyclable, we encourage reusing or donating them where possible.

🌱 Compliance & Certifications

Our boxes are REACH compliant

Manufactured in a factory with SMETA 4-Pillar Audit accreditation

Warehousing is certified to: ISO9001, ISO14001, ISO22301, and ISO/IEC27001

💚 Our Sustainability Ethos: Re-gift • Re-use • Re-purpose

At Foldabox, we are committed to reducing environmental impact beyond recycling. Our luxury gift boxes are designed to be:

Re-gifted

Re-used

Re-purposed

They're perfect as keepsake boxes or for stylish home storage - built to last and to be cherished long after the original gift has been received. We encourage all customers to maximise the life of each box and only recycle as a final step.

🌍 Why Re-use Matters

While recycling is essential, it’s not carbon neutral. The most environmentally responsible choice is not to discard useful items at all.

A beautiful, high-quality box is never something people like to throw away. That’s why investing in packaging that people want to keep makes a difference. Share re-purposing ideas with your customers to help extend the lifespan of your packaging and reduce waste meaningfully.
