Custom candle packaging
What is your minimum order quantity for custom candle boxes?
Our minimum order quantity is flexible, but we recommend starting at 100 units for the best balance of per-unit cost and customization options. We work with candle businesses of all sizes, from small artisan makers to large brands. Request a quote with your desired quantity and we will provide detailed pricing.
How long does production take for custom candle packaging?
Standard production takes approximately 10 to 15 business days after design approval, depending on order complexity, materials, and finishing requirements. Rush production is available for time-sensitive projects. Contact us with your timeline and we will confirm turnaround for your specific order.
Do you offer free shipping on candle box orders?
Yes. Every order ships free anywhere in the United States, regardless of order size or destination. Your candle boxes are shipped flat to minimize shipping volume and reduce storage space requirements at your location.
Can I get a sample before placing a full order?
Yes. We provide digital proofs and mockups as part of every quote so you can review your packaging design before production begins. Physical samples are also available on request. Request a quote and let us know you would like a physical sample.
What file formats do you accept for print artwork?
We accept Adobe Illustrator (.ai), PDF, PSD, and EPS files. For best results, provide vector artwork at 300 DPI or higher with fonts outlined and colors in CMYK. If you do not have design files, our team can create artwork for your candle boxes as part of our design services.
Do you offer design services for candle packaging?
Yes. If you do not have existing design files, our packaging designers will create custom artwork for your candle boxes. We work with your logo, brand colors, and vision to produce print-ready designs. Design consultation is included with every quote at no extra cost.
What materials are available for custom candle boxes?
We offer a full range of packaging materials including cardboard, kraft paper (natural brown, white, and black), corrugated board, rigid chipboard, SBS board, and specialty papers. Material selection depends on your product type, budget, and brand aesthetic. Browse our product range to see material options for each box type.
What printing and finishing options do you offer?
Our printing options include full-color CMYK offset printing, Pantone color matching, and digital printing for short runs. Finishing options include foil stamping, embossing, debossing, spot UV coating, matte and gloss lamination, soft-touch lamination, window die-cutting, and magnetic closures. See our luxury candle boxes for premium finishing examples.
Can you make candle boxes for any size or shape of candle?
Absolutely. Every box we produce is custom manufactured to your exact specifications. We create packaging for candle jars (4oz to 16oz+), tins, pillars, votives, tapers, ceramic vessels, and multi-candle sets. See our candle jar boxes for size-specific packaging options.
Do you offer eco-friendly candle packaging options?
Yes. We offer sustainable packaging including recycled kraft paper, biodegradable materials, and eco-friendly inks. Our kraft candle boxes are made from 100% recycled and recyclable materials, making them ideal for candle brands that prioritize sustainability.
