In short
Food and beverage packaging is printed paperboard or corrugated made to hold, protect and sell food: bakery boxes, takeout boxes, pizza boxes, cereal cartons, cups and carriers. Box Sense makes it to your size from 10 boxes, with production in 8–12 business days after proof approval.
A food box has two jobs at once. It has to survive grease, steam, cold and a delivery driver, and it has to make the food look worth the price before anyone tastes it.
Start by telling us one thing: does the food touch the board directly, or is it wrapped, bagged or lined? That answer decides the board, the coating and the inks we recommend.
What matters in food and beverage packaging
- Direct or indirect food contact. Unwrapped food needs a board and coating chosen for direct contact. Wrapped or bagged food leaves you free to pick on looks and cost.
- Grease and moisture. Fried and baked foods need a grease-resistant board or liner. Chilled and frozen foods need a coating that holds up to condensation.
- Heat and venting. Hot food steams. Vents keep fries and pizza crisp, and corrugated holds heat longer than paperboard.
- Label space. Leave room for the ingredient list, allergens, net weight and a barcode. You supply the regulatory wording and we print it exactly.
Where to start
- Custom Food Boxes: the general-purpose choice when you sell several kinds of food and want one consistent look.
- Takeout & Noodle Boxes: folded cartons for hot meals, with grease-resistant board and locking tabs.
- Pizza Boxes: corrugated boxes sized to your pie, with venting and one-color or full-color print.
- Cake Boxes: window and plain styles for bakeries, shipped flat to save storage space.
- Beverage Carriers: four-pack and six-pack carriers for bottles and cans.
Choosing board for food
Paperboard (SBS or kraft) suits bakery, cereal and dry goods, and prints sharply. Corrugated suits pizza, meal delivery and anything heavy or hot. Kraft gives a natural look that hides scuffs; white board makes colors brighter.
For greasy food, ask for grease-resistant board. A growing number of US states restrict added PFAS in food packaging, so tell us which states you sell in.
FAQ
Is your food packaging safe for direct food contact?+
Tell us whether the food touches the board directly. We then quote a board, coating and ink combination intended for that use, and confirm the details in writing with your quote.
Can you print ingredient and nutrition panels?+
Yes. Send the final wording and layout requirements and we print them exactly as supplied. The regulatory content itself is your responsibility.
What is the minimum order?+
10 boxes for any style. Short runs are printed digitally, and larger runs move to offset printing for a lower cost per box.
