Create Your Own Specialty Packaging

Custom Specialty Boxes & Specialty Packaging

Some product just dont fit in a regular box. That is where our specialty packaging comes in. At ZEE Packaging we build the odd shape, the unusual closure, the box that made three other supplier say no.

When Standard Just Wont Cut It

You need a specialty box when:

• Your product has a weird shape or fragile edge
• You want a structural design nobody else on shelf has
• Your unboxing experience is part of your marketing
• A stock carton size wastes space or leave your item rattling
• You are doing a limited drop and the specialty packaging is the whole point

Boards We Print On

Our specialty box work runs on the same quality stock as everything else we do:

• Natural brown kraft for rustic and eco specialty packaging
• Corrugated 1 to 3 ply where your specialty box need real strength
• Rigid greyboard 36pt and 48pt for luxury specialty packaging
• Cardstock 12pt through 28pt

Making It Look Good

Structure get you halfway. Print and finishing do the rest.

• Offset, digital and screen printing in CMYK plus Pantone matching
• Matte, gloss and soft touch lamination on any specialty box
• Spot UV, raised gloss and varnish
• Hot foil stamping, embossing and debossing
• Metallic ink, holographic effect and window patching

Inside your specialty packaging we also do foam insert, die cut paperboard tray, ribbon pull and magnet closure. The insert is what stop the product moving and it make the reveal feel deliberate.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you charge for the die?
Custom die cost is usually built into your unit price. For very unusual structure there may be a one time tooling fee which we tell you upfront.

What do you charge for custom-shaped packaging?
It depend on structure, board and run size. A simple pillow box run low while a magnetic rigid box with foil cost more. We give free quote on your exact spec.

Can you copy a box I already have?
Send us the sample or a photo with measurement and our structural team will recreate it, or improve it if we spot a weakness.

How long does structural design take?
Usually 1 to 3 business day for the dieline. Complex specialty packaging with moving part take a little longer.

Do odd shapes ship okay?
Yes, we flat pack most of them and supply assembly instruction. Rigid style ship assembled with protective fill.

Whats the smallest run you will do?
100 unit. Plenty of our client start there and scale up once the design prove itself.
