Apparel Boxes for Easy, Secure Clothing Shipments
Packaging Lane apparel boxes protect shirts, dresses, and folded garments during shipping and storage. Sturdy cardboard keeps clothing flat and guards against dust and dirt.
Each box arrives flat to save space, then folds quickly with scored edges. Multiple sizes fit everything from t-shirts to outerwear, reducing movement and preventing wrinkles.

Materials & Construction Details
Packaging Lane uses board grades like chipboard, corrugate, and rigid, each serving different protection needs. Rigid options withstand stacking; corrugate shields garments from external pressure.
Box thicknesses range from 1.2 mm to 3 mm. Thicker walls defend against crushing in storage or shipping, helping garments arrive intact.
All adhesives and inks are apparel-safe, so they won’t transfer onto fabric.

Box Styles & Custom Sizing
Choose from four standard box types for clothing: two-piece, mailer, fold-flat, and magnetic. Each style protects different apparel needs, so you match shape and function.
Pick your box length, width, and height to fit the product. Custom sizing cuts waste and helps control shipping weight. Sizes run to the 1/16 inch for accuracy.
For the best fit, measure apparel after folding and add a quarter inch to each dimension.

Finish & Print Options
Choose from matte, gloss, or soft-touch coatings for exterior and interior print styles. Each finish affects color vibrancy and tactile feel, helping your brand stand out on shelves or unboxings.
Packaging Lane matches specific Pantone shades for consistent branding on apparel boxes. Print logos or full-color graphics in precise alignment to fit a wide range of box sizes.

Eco-Friendly & Compliance
Packaging Lane uses recycled content in every box, with rates ranging from 40% to 95% based on material type. Buyers can select compostable or recyclable materials for each order, so packaging fits diverse sustainability goals.
All packaging meets garment industry standards for strength and ink safety. Third-party certifications, like FSC or BPI, are available upon request to support compliance reviews and supplier transparency.

Ordering, Lead Times & Support
Packaging Lane has a minimum order quantity requirement. Most orders start at 100 units, which helps keep pricing favorable for businesses.
Requesting a sample is simple. Approve your production proof before final orders move ahead, giving you control over quality and ensuring the right fit.
Custom apparel boxes may need more time, depending on design and materials. Multiple shipping options let you choose how fast you want your order delivered.

Material Types
Choose kraft for a natural look or white for a crisp, clean finish. Both options support brand presentation and affect how colors print on your packaging.
Pick rigid materials when you need strength for heavier garments. Folding styles save space and cut shipping costs for lighter pieces.
For delicate fabrics, ask about anti-dust or anti-static coatings. These features help prevent lint and damage from static during transit.

Popular Box Styles
Choose from top-opening, magnetic lid, or fold-flat boxes for shirts, suits, and accessories. Fold-flat options help cut storage costs, as they ship flat and assemble quickly on site.
Magnetic lids hold shirts or suits securely while keeping a clean look. Top-opening boxes provide fast packing and easy access, important for retail and e-commerce.

How to Measure for the Right Fit
Start by measuring the interior length, width, and depth of your box. Use a ruler or tape measure. The interior size matters most when you want to add tissue or inserts, so allow extra space for these materials.
If you have specific items, such as folded shirts or small apparel, measure them first. Add at least 0.25 inch to each dimension to prevent tight squeezes or damage during packing.
Accurate measurements help you avoid delays and custom size changes. The right fit gives your packaging a clean, professional look.

Print Methods
Digital printing fits short runs well, like fewer than 250 units. This method offers fast turnarounds— It delivers sharp detail for custom designs on smaller quantities, avoiding setup costs.
Offset printing suits medium to large volumes. It handles detailed branding and color accuracy. This method works best if you need a consistent look across 1,000 or more boxes.
Screen printing is strong for bold images but fits basic artwork and solid colors. It’s most cost-effective for large batch runs, where repeat prints need durability.

Finishes & Add-Ons
Add Spot UV, foil, or deboss/emboss finishes to help your boxes stand out. Each finish gives texture and shine shoppers notice, and Spot UV can pinpoint your logo or brand elements for extra focus. Choose from gold or silver foils, or deboss/emboss for raised or recessed graphics with tight detail.
Window cutouts let customers preview the product in seconds. We laser cut in clean lines and offer window shapes up to 4 x 6 inches, matched to your design. Buyers often report higher shelf appeal with visible products.
Inside print is available for full coverage or highlights, showing care even after unboxing. Small upgrades like these boost perceived value, and most custom add-ons ships with Packaging Lane for apparel boxes.

Color Matching Process
We offer both CMYK and Pantone color options to match your brand’s needs. CMYK provides rich, detailed images, while Pantone ensures consistent, exact hues on every run. Select the method based on how precise your colors need to be for apparel boxes.
Our team reviews artwork setup before production starts. Files must be high-res and use the selected color mode. This step helps prevent misprints and saves you costly delays.
Before a full run, we send you color proofs for approval. This lets you preview and adjust shades before we print. So you know when to plan your launch.

Sustainable Materials
Packaging Lane sources paper with up to 90% post-consumer waste. This reduces landfill use and supports circular production. All materials meet local recycling standards.
Boxes are printed with soy or vegetable inks, lowering emissions versus petroleum-based inks. This choice keeps your packaging safer for both handlers and the environment.
