In modern retail and direct-to-consumer e-commerce, custom packaging serves as your customer’s first tangible interaction with your brand. The right custom box protects your physical product during transit, eliminates dimensional weight surcharges, and creates an unboxing experience that drives customer retention.
At Go Custom Boxes, our popular packaging catalog features our top-performing box styles, precision-engineered structural dies, and durable materials designed to scale with your business.
High-Performance Packaging Materials Built for Every Industry
Choosing the right substrate ensures your packaging meets both structural transit demands and aesthetic retail expectations. We manufacture our popular boxes using four primary commercial materials:
Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS) Paperboard (16pt to 24pt)
SBS paperboard features a pure white, clay-coated surface that delivers exceptional color fidelity and print sharpness. It is the premier substrate for folding cartons, cosmetic packaging, bakery items, pharmaceuticals, and lightweight retail merchandise.
Corrugated Fiberboard (E-Flute, B-Flute & 32+ ECT)
Engineered for strength without excessive weight, our corrugated board sandwiches an arched fluted medium between heavy-duty kraft liners. It provides maximum crush resistance for e-commerce subscription boxes, direct-to-consumer shipping mailers, and master cartons.
Rigid Structural Greyboard (40pt to 80pt)
Constructed from dense, non-bending chipboard wrapped in printed art paper, rigid boxes deliver an unyielding, high-end feel. They are the benchmark for luxury goods, premium electronics, high-ticket jewelry, and promotional PR kits.
Eco-Friendly Kraft Paperboard (Brown & White)
Made from natural, unbleached wood pulp, kraft packaging offers high tensile strength and an organic, minimalist appearance. It is 100% curbside recyclable and biodegradable, making it the top choice for sustainability-driven retail brands.
