Have you ever outsourced the production of your own packaging?
At first, if you search online for something like easy custom box ordering, you’ll find plenty of box manufacturing sites. You click the first one that shows up, and what do you see? “Request a Quote.” The wording feels overly technical, and the idea of having to call makes you hesitate and hit the back button.
Take a look at Packative’s box types here!
While looking through other sites, you may come across one with an “Order” button and think, great, this is the one! But when you click the box shape you want, you discover there are no design options. Then you start wondering whether only preprinted images can be ordered, and confusion sets in.

The Traditional Custom Box Production Process
You’ll probably keep searching a bit more. You’ll realize the design has to be handled separately, or that you need to contact a designer introduced by the printing company. But when you look through the designer’s portfolio, you may feel that they don’t seem specialized in the kind of design that matches your brand.
So you go back to find a new designer? You browse platforms like Kmong and other designer sites, looking for someone whose portfolio you like, then reach out. You explain your brand image and product to the designer, along with the design direction you want. Then you wait a few days for the first draft, go through several meetings to make revisions, but because they aren’t an in-house designer, the design still never feels exactly right… Sometimes, even after dragging it out for a month, the packaging you want still doesn’t come out.

Once you’ve exhausted yourself over the design, you then have to search online for a printing shop, haggle with shop owners at the Bangsan Market, arrange die production, get a price estimate… At that point, it feels like the hard part is finally over, right? Not at all! After waiting days for printing, you still have to check whether the print quality came out properly and whether there are any misprints.
