About our board game & puzzle boxes
A game box is opened and closed hundreds of times, stored on a shelf for years and judged by its spine. Independent designers, Kickstarter creators and publishers need a box that keeps components organized and looks at home next to the classics.
We make rigid two piece game boxes in standard and custom sizes, with inserts, plus tuck boxes for card games and puzzle boxes, from 10 boxes, which suits prototypes and crowdfunding runs.
Game packaging
Choosing the board
| Board | Best for | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Rigid greyboard, 1.5 to 2.5 mm | Board game boxes | Wrapped in printed paper |
| SBS paperboard | Card game tuck boxes | Crisp print |
| Linen-embossed wrap | A classic game-box finish | Hides scuffs and feels premium |
What affects the price of board game & puzzle boxes
Every box is made to order, so each order is quoted individually. These are the things that move the price most, in order:
- Box size and depth. Large and deep boxes use more greyboard and wrap.
- Inserts. Card or molded inserts that organize components add cost.
- Finishes. Linen texture, spot UV and foil add steps.
- Quantity. The unit price falls steeply from prototype runs to print runs.
Send your size, quantity and artwork through the quick quote form for a firm price within 24 hours.
Planning the box
- List every component with its size and count
- Size the box to the board, folded
- Design an insert so parts do not shift when stored on edge
- Put the title on all four sides for shelf display
- Leave room for age, player count, play time and barcode
Safety labeling
Games for children fall under US toy safety rules, including small-parts warnings for games with small pieces. We print the warnings and marks you supply.
How ordering works
