  • 1.  Luxury Box Manufacturer - midwest

    Posted 04-05-2021 10:21 AM

    Good Morning!

     

    I've been helping a customer create a shipper box for wedding invitations.  Her manufacturer for the luxury interior box has fallen through.  Does anyone have any recommendations for a company that can produce something like what I've outlined below?  I've also attached some pictures.

    • Rigid Paper Board – covered in soft-touch paper
    • Foil stamped on the top and inside (PMS Cool Gray 7 C)
    • Magnetic lid (holds itself closed)
    • Holds the "invitation" made out of lucite.

    Andrea,

    That is the type of work that Wright Brothers in Fond du Lac, WI had performed in their past.  They've since been purchased by Castle Pierce in Oshkosh, WI, and do not know if they've retained that sort of specialty.  I'd like to hear back from you if you learn if they can still perform that "nitch".

    Thank you,
    Tim

    Dear Andrea

     

    The link I gave you is from the Paperboard Packaging Council

    The trade association of rigid box makers.

    It shows all the members with links of companies that specialize in Rigid.

    Dear Andrea,

    We often make magnetic closure book-style rigid gift boxes in China.  The standard mass production lead time is 3-4 weeks, after sample approval, plus 4-5 weeks ocean.   If she doesn't have this much time, we might be able to have them made in RI at a higher cost and I'd have to check on current production load.
