Custom Favor Boxes for Memorable Events

Packaging Lane offers custom favor boxes sized and styled for weddings, parties, and corporate gifts. Choose from multiple shapes and finishes for a look that matches your event. Quantities start as low as 50 units, letting you control budget and inventory. Select from durable stock options, including gloss or matte, to fit your preferred theme. High-quality materials help your favors arrive in good shape and look polished at every place setting. Clear sizing and material options reduce guesswork.

 Material Choices & Build

Choose paperboard for lightweight boxes or corrugated for heavy-duty packaging. Paperboard works for small gifts, while corrugated supports bulky or fragile items. Both types come in multiple thicknesses, from 14pt to 32pt, letting you match the box to your shipment needs. Select from single-wall or double-wall construction. Single-wall fits most favors or retail gifts, but double-wall offers extra support when stacking or shipping is needed. This reduces crushed boxes and product damage.

 Popular Materials for Custom Favor Boxes

Paperboard comes in white, kraft, or colored styles. White paperboard gives sharp prints for events that need logos or patterns. Kraft suits rustic events and is uncoated, so it’s safe for light contact with food. Colored paperboard adds variety for themed parties. Choose food-safe coatings for events serving candy or small snacks. Most food-safe finishes meet FDA guidelines for dry foods. Sizes can be set by inch or millimeter to fit your item count.

 Box Construction & Longevity

Strong folds with well-defined creases keep boxes in shape, even with repeat use. Glue and lock types, like tuck or snap closures, resist tearing during handling. This helps your shipment arrive looking sharp. Select thicker materials and double-wall edges for longer box life. Boxes with these features are less likely to crush, even under weight. Choose from common sizes to fit favors tightly and reduce empty space. To avoid box crush, fill each box fully and tape the base securely. Packaging Lane offers guidance so your custom favor boxes protect contents and can be reused for events or storage.

 Custom Sizing & Fit

Choose from a size range starting at 2 inches up to 15 inches to fit small tokens or larger keepsakes. Correct dimensions help your gifts avoid shifting or damage in transit, so each item arrives in good shape. Select the right template by matching your product measurements to our dieline options. This step streamlines production and avoids costly sizing errors.

 Measuring & Choosing Your Size

Check the size of your items before picking a box. Use a ruler to measure length, width, and height. For candies, soap, or minis, leave at least 0.25 inches extra space in each direction so products fit without squeezing. Our size guide lists common fits: two-inch boxes hold three chocolates, a three-inch box works for most soap bars, and 2 oz mini bottles generally need a 2.5-inch square. If you need help, compare your products against these examples for fast matching. Quick turnarounds support event timelines and reduce last-minute stress.

 Shape & Closure Options

Choose from cube, pillow, gable, or hex shapes. Each form suits different favor sizes and themes, making packing simple and consistent. Closure styles include secure lids, tuck-tabs, and magnetic flaps. Fast, no-fuss closing means your items stay protected when handled or shipped. All Packaging Lane custom favor boxes are made to order. Get the right shape and closure for events without long waits.

 Print, Design & Finishing Details

Choose from CMYK, foil, or digital print methods to match your brand color and detail needs. Each option delivers crisp logos and sharp graphics at every quantity. Select between matte and gloss finishes. Matte reduces glare for soft visuals, while gloss boosts shine and highlights color. Both help protect against scuffs during shipping. Add your logo to custom favor boxes in several positions or with extra detailing.

 Artwork Setup & File Requirements

Submit files in PDF, AI, or EPS format to avoid print issues. Make sure images are at least 300 DPI for clear visuals on your custom favor boxes. Add 0.125 inch bleed on every side and keep text within the safe area. This prevents cutting errors, so your design stays sharp.

 Special Features & Add-Ons

Window cutouts show off contents at a glance. They are best for clear or eye-catching gifts and allow buyers to see quality and color with no unboxing. Choose from standard shapes within a 1 to 6 inch width. Ribbons and handles make boxes easier to carry at parties or events. Use flat satin ribbons (10-15 mm wide) or twisted paper handles for loads up to 2 kg. Both add a decorative accent and convenience. Embossing creates a raised design that stands out. It is effective for logos or text up to 4 mm height. All features can be added in production.

 Sustainability & Compliance

Packaging Lane offers eco-friendly material choices including paperboard and kraft, both suitable for composting or recycling. These options help reduce landfill waste and match green brand goals. All materials support certified compostable or recyclable claims backed by industry standards. Buyers receive documentation to prove compliance for local or national regulations. For small or large orders, favor boxes fit tight event schedules while meeting sustainability needs.

 Eco Material Choices

Choose from recycled content, FSC-certified paper, or soy-based inks for your packaging. Each material meets strict standards for responsible sourcing and reduced footprint. These material choices work for runs of all sizes at Packaging Lane. Custom favor boxes are available with these eco options, so your packaging shows your values at every event or milestone.

 Safe for Food Use & Kids’ Parties

All Packaging Lane favor boxes meet food contact safety guidelines. Materials are non-toxic and tested for use with snacks, candies, and baked goods. Non-toxic inks and coatings prevent chemical migration onto treats. This keeps products safe for kids and guests during parties or events. This lets you plan ahead for gatherings where safe packaging is a priority.
