Frequently Asked Questions

What are custom metalized boxes?

Custom metalized boxes are packaging finished with a metallic, foil-like surface — either a fully metalized foil-board or applied metallic films and foils. They are printed with your branding to create a shiny, premium look used for cosmetics, confectionery, electronics, candles, and luxury gifts.

What is the difference between metalized board and foil stamping?

Metalized board carries a metallic surface across the whole box for an all-over shimmer, while foil stamping applies metallic foil only to specific areas such as a logo or text. Many brands combine both — a metallic base with foil-stamped accents — for an eye-catching, high-contrast luxury effect.

What metallic colors and effects are available?

We offer gold, silver, rose-gold, copper, and holographic or iridescent finishes, plus spot foil accents. You can pair reflective metallic areas with matte coatings, embossing, debossing, and spot UV so your logo and key details stand out against the shimmer for a true high-end feel.

What sizes are common for custom metalized boxes?

There is no standard size — every metalized box is built to your product's exact length, width, and depth, from slim 3 x 3 x 4 in cosmetic boxes to wide 10 x 8 x 2 in apparel and electronics boxes. Send your product or dimensions and we will recommend the ideal size and inserts.

What types of products suit metalized boxes?

Metalized boxes shine for cosmetics, perfume, chocolates and confectionery, candles, electronics and tech accessories, vape and CBD, and premium gifts — any product where shelf appeal and a luxury feel help drive the sale and justify a higher price point.

What is the minimum order quantity for metalized boxes?

We offer low minimum orders, so you can start with a small premium run for a launch and reorder as you grow. Standard production and delivery runs about 10 to 12 business days after artwork approval, with rush turnaround of 6 to 8 business days available. Share your quantity when you request a quote.

How much do custom metalized boxes cost?

Cost depends on the box size, the metallic finish, the quantity, and added effects like embossing or spot UV. Because we manufacture factory-direct with no reseller markup and no setup or die fees, our wholesale prices stay competitive. Request a free quote for exact pricing on your job.

How long does production take?

Standard production and delivery is about 10 to 12 business days after artwork approval, with rush turnaround of 6 to 8 business days available on most orders when you are on a deadline. Tell us your target date and we will confirm the fastest realistic option for your metalized boxes.

Can I print my logo and brand colors on metalized boxes?

Yes. Metalized boxes are fully customizable. You can print your logo, brand colors, and artwork over or alongside the metallic finish, and our designers prepare print-ready files at no extra cost. We adjust ink and under-printing so colors stay vivid against the reflective surface.

Will my printed colors look right on a shiny metallic surface?

Yes. Because metalized board reflects light, our team tunes ink density and adds white-ink under-printing where needed so your colors print true and legible. You can also choose exactly where the metallic shows through and where solid color sits to control the final look.

Do you offer rigid and luxury metalized boxes?

Yes. We make premium metalized rigid boxes — including two-piece lid-and-base and magnetic-closure styles — with a high-shine wrap and finishes like foil stamping, embossing, and spot UV for high-end retail, cosmetic, and special-occasion packaging.

Are metalized boxes recyclable?

Metalized paperboard varies in recyclability depending on the finish and any film layer. Tell us your sustainability goals and we will recommend the most eco-conscious metallic option — including metallic-look finishes on recyclable stock — that still delivers the premium look you want.

Can I get a sample before placing a full order?

Yes. You can request a free sample kit to feel our metallic stocks and finishes in hand, or ask for a pre-production proof or physical sample of your own design when you request a quote, so you can approve the shine and color before the full run.

Can you create custom shapes and windows for metalized boxes?

Absolutely. Beyond standard styles we produce custom shapes, die-cut windows, sleeves, and inserts built around your product, so your metalized box fits perfectly and frames the item exactly the way you envision for the shelf or the unboxing.

Do you ship metalized boxes across the USA?

Yes — we offer free delivery across the United States on custom metalized box orders. Your finished boxes ship to your door at no extra cost after you approve the proof, so the premium price stays in the product, not the postage.
