We make every scarf box to your own dieline instead of a fixed size chart. The inside depth matches your folded scarf plus tissue, so the scarf does not slide around. Stock runs from 300 to 350 gsm cardstock for light silk and polyester, up to 1200 gsm rigid board, about 2 mm thick, for wool and cashmere. Kraft and recycled paperboard are there for brands that want recyclable packaging. All stock takes CMYK, Pantone and full-bleed printing. Finishes include matte and gloss lamination, soft touch coating, spot UV, foil stamping, embossing and debossing. You can also add a window patch, ribbon pull, belly band, printed care card or tissue liner. The minimum order is 100 boxes.
Custom Box Styles for Scarf Packaging
Two-piece rigid boxes and shoulder-neck boxes suit gift and boutique pricing. The lid lifts away cleanly and the base keeps the fold flat. Magnetic flip-top boxes give the same feel with a closure customers tend to keep, which works well for cashmere. Sleeve and tray sets let you print a new outer band each season and reuse one tray. That keeps costs down if your collection changes often. Window boxes with a clear PET or PVC patch show the pattern without opening the box, so they work well on retail shelves and market tables. For online orders, a fold-flat mailer in kraft or corrugated ships flat and stores flat.
Choosing Stock for Silk, Wool and Cashmere
Match the board to the fabric weight, not to the price tag. Fine silk snags on any rough edge. Ask for full inside lamination or a lined tray, so the fabric only touches a smooth surface. Wool and cashmere hold a fold well, but they should not be pressed. Leave a little space above the folded stack. Rigid board holds up better when boxes are stacked, while lighter cardboard suits flat, envelope-style boxes that ship in a satchel. Do not seal wool in a plastic sleeve, since trapped damp marks the fibres over time. If you already order custom apparel boxes from us, we can match the stock and finish across your whole range. Many scarf brands pair their gift line with two piece rigid boxes for higher-priced pieces.
How to Size a Scarf Box
Fold five scarves the way your team folds them. Measure the length, width and height, then take the largest reading. Add 3 to 5 mm of height for tissue. Add another 2 to 3 mm if you plan to include a card or belly band. Send us those numbers, and our design team sends back a dieline and a digital mockup before anything is printed. One depth usually covers a silk and a light wool. Heavy knits need their own size.
Printing and Finishing Options
Offset printing suits wholesale runs and keeps colour the same across the batch. Pantone matching keeps your brand shade the same on every reprint. Matte lamination looks quiet and hides fingerprints. Gloss lifts bright prints and bold patterns. Soft touch coating suits higher price points. Foil stamping and embossing work well for a logo on a plain lid. Spot UV over a matte base adds contrast without adding a colour.
