Key Takeaway
Die-cut packaging follows a custom cutting pattern instead of a standard rectangular carton. Windows, handles, display openings, and shaped edges are engineered around the packed product.nKraft, white paperboard, and corrugated grades support different weights and print results. Artwork is checked on the final dieline before the job moves into production.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers about custom die cut boxes, materials and ordering.
Is there an extra charge for die-cutting?
A custom die carries a one-time tooling cost that is quoted with the project and scales with how complex the shape is. Once made, the die is reused for repeat orders at no additional cost.
What materials can be die-cut?
Paperboard, corrugated board, kraft paper and rigid chipboard are all die-cuttable. Thicker materials need a stronger die, but our standard stocks all support custom shapes.
How detailed can a die-cut shape be?
Our dies handle curves, sharp corners and fine detail. Very intricate work can also be routed to laser cutting, and either way we confirm feasibility before you approve the dieline.
What is the minimum order for die cut boxes?
Orders start from 300 units. The final minimum can vary with shape complexity, material and finish, and is confirmed in your quote.
How long does production take?
Production timing is confirmed with your quote and starts once you approve the dieline and proof. Complex or high-volume orders take longer, and shipping time depends on the destination.
Are die cut boxes FSC-certified?
FSC-certified paper options are available when specified, along with recyclable materials. See the certifications and materials page for the scope of each claim.
Can I get a sample before ordering?
Yes. Samples are available on request so you can check the cut, material and print quality before committing to a full production run.
What finishes work with die-cut shapes?
Matte or gloss lamination, spot UV, foil stamping, and embossing or debossing all pair with a die-cut structure; availability depends on the board and shape you choose.
