Our Manufacturing Capabilities

Structural Design

Our award-winning Structural Design team keeps your project moving forward with:

  • Expert designers that maximize your custom structure’s protection, efficiency, and visual impact
  • A full-time Sample Maker who enables us to quickly deliver structural samples to clients
  • Industry-leading 3D modeling/CAD systems and software specific to the packaging sector for full-scale prototypes

The BoxMaker is material-neutral, meaning that we can design across various substances and packaging materials, not just those that we manufacture or convert in-house. Our team provides carefully considered guidance around innovation, use of sustainable materials, and potential alternatives. Cushioning materials and full mock-ups are integral parts of every design project.

Flexographic Printing

The BoxMaker offers economical, effective flexographic printing for branded corrugated boxes and related products. We print up to two colors at a time on counter displays, case packs, inner trays, and e-commerce shipping boxes.

Flatbed Die Cutting

The BoxMaker offers flatbed die cutting, which operates much like a giant cookie cutter. The cutting die formed of steel rule takes the custom shape of your packaging design. The die stamps your shape out of the corrugated material, creating various structures from a simple rectangular pad to a mailer to a complex floor display with several components.

The Advantages of Flatbed Die Cutting

  • Steel dies are less expensive than rotary dies
  • 46.5" x 63" sheet size capacity
  • Die cuts intricate pieces with precision
  • Suited best for small to large production runs
  • Vibrating belt system shakes off all scrap resulting in a clean, finished product
