Custom Laundry Detergent Boxes & Laundry Packaging
Laundry powder is heavy, and that single fact drive most of what we do in this category. A carton of pod or a box of powder carry real weight for its footprint, it sit on a damp utility room floor, and a customer pick it up by whatever part they can grab. We print a lot of laundry packaging at ZEE Packaging and board failure is the complaint we get asked to solve most.
Weight Is The Whole Problem
A laundry box has to carry a dense load without the base giving up.
- Board weight matched to the filled weight, never to the dimension
- Auto lock bottom once you pass a few pound, snap lock will not hold
- Corrugated for bulk and refill format
- Reinforced handle cut, thin board tear straight through
- Flat base so the load sit evenly rather than bulging one side
- Send us the filled weight and we spec from that
Most failure we get shown is a base seam that split under a full pod tub.
Moisture Is The Second Problem
Utility room and laundry cupboard are damp place.
- Coated stock rather than bare board, uncoated soften over time
- Poly or compostable liner inside for powder and pod
- Never let detergent sit in direct contact with uncoated board
- Aqueous coating on the outer where you want recyclability kept
- Resealable closure for multi use laundry packaging
- Tight flap so powder does not escape into a cupboard
- Auto lock bottom carton the standard laundry box for pod and powder
- Seal end carton glued, tidy on a supermarket shelf
- Corrugated shipper with handle bulk and refill laundry packaging
- Sleeve over a tub brand face without a full carton
- Resealable flip top multi serve pod format
- Sheet and strip carton slim format for detergent sheet
Sizes We Print Regular
Every laundry box is built to your product, though these run often:
- 6" x 4" x 8" for a pod tub carton
- 8" x 6" x 10" for powder detergent

What The Panel Must Carry
- Wash count, the number buyers compare on first
- Net weight and volume
- Dosage guidance for load size and water hardness
- GHS hazard pictogram and warning where required
- Keep out of reach of children, mandatory on pod
- Barcode with proper quiet zone
Our prepress team check it all against the dieline so nothing get trimmed at the edge. We print your supplied wording, we never write compliance copy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do we need a liner for powder?
Yes. Board alone will not hold fine powder or keep moisture out, so a liner go inside as standard.
Which bottom style for a pod tub?
Auto lock every time. Snap lock give way under that weight, and it is the failure we see most often.
How much is a box of laundry detergent?
Rough estimate is $0.25 to $0.70 per unit for a pod carton, $0.45 to $1.20 for powder and $0.80 to $2.20 for a bulk corrugated format at moderate quantity. Liner and handle move it. Shipping is included in our price. This is estimate only, so ask our team for a exact quote.
Can you add a carry handle?
Yes, reinforced. On anything past a few kilo we always reinforce the cut or the handle tear out.
Does the pack need child safety wording?
On pod almost always. Confirm your exact requirement with your compliance contact and we lay out what you supply.
Will damp affect the carton?
Uncoated will soften in a utility room. An aqueous or coated outer handle that while still recycling.
Can you do a refill format?
We do, and plenty of brand run it now. It cut material and give you a sustainability story.
