There are now so many different types of custom paper boxes that it is difficult to keep track in order to choose the perfect packaging for your products. The classic among them is the typical hinged lid box, which in turn comes in a wide variety of designs for a wide range of applications. Here we present everything you should know about the foldable packaging boxes, covering features, advantages, types, and applications.

 

What are Hinged Boxes?

Hinged boxes are foldable packaging that usually consists of three parts: base, lid, and bottom insert or inlay. However, there is also a carton version, which consists of only one part and does not require glue, but can also contain an inlay. They offer a wide range of packaging options for a wide variety of products and, depending on the intended use, can be printed and refined in a beautiful, colorful or simple, and elegant way.
At luxury-paper-box.com you have the option of having your box completely, only partially, and even printed on the inside.

What Types of Hinged Boxes Are?

We offer you three different types of hinged boxes on Luxury-Paper-Box.Com, here we present them to you in detail:

1) Cardboard Mailer Boxes
Rolled-up hinged boxes are made of one piece and do not require any glue. They are quick and easy to assemble and can be dismantled again if necessary, which is why they can be stored in a much more space-saving manner. If there are no inlays or if you do not wish to have the delivery set up, the boxes will be sent flat. This type of hinged box is a cheaper alternative to the hollow wall box, which is just as stable due to its double-walled construction. In contrast to the hinged lid box with a hollow wall, the card box has no tuck-in flap on the front edge of the lid, but one on each side of the edge, which is inserted into the opening between the double-walled sidewalls.
These easy-to-assemble cardboard hinged boxes are also known as mailer boxes or tuck top boxes and perfectly used as retail-ready gift boxes, subscription boxes, or e-commerce packaging.

2) Magnetic Lid Boxes
Like the hinged lid boxes with hollow walls, these magnet boxes consist of a lid, base and bottom insert or inlay, which makes them extremely stable. There are also several small parts that are all glued together, such as the magnets that are hidden in the base and cover. They ensure that the box closes securely, as they replace the tuck-in flap and allow easy opening and closing. A special feature of these boxes is the typical popping sound of the lid when it is closed.
Its elegant and simple appearance makes it ideal as premium packaging for high-quality products such as chocolates, jewelry, and cosmetics, but also for heavier contents such as bottles and glasses. In addition, it is ideal for gifts to customers, employees, and partners.

3) Hinged Boxes with Hollow Walls
These boxes are made of three parts and have a hollow rim. They consist of a lower part, a lid with a tuck-in flap on the front edge and a bottom insert or an individually made inlay. The thick frame makes the box much more stable. The box is given the distinctive thickness of the edge by sticking the adhesive flap a few millimeters to the outer edge on the bottom. The lid also consists of two layers that are glued together so that it cannot be bent so easily by heavy objects and that it protects the contents better.
This box looks very elegant, especially with an inlay that holds the products securely and presents them beautifully, and with a finish that is also possible on the frame of the cavity wall. Therefore, it usually works for product gift packaging At luxury-paper-box.com, all cavity wall boxes are always dispatched in the erected state as standard.
