Custom Packaging / OEM & ODM

Custom corrugated packaging should be specified around the product, packing method, required protection, shipping conditions, and order quantity.
Custom corrugated packaging is available for buyers who require specific box dimensions, board construction, printing, box structures, or packaging configurations. Buyers can provide a drawing, product dimensions, sample, reference photo, artwork, or existing packaging for specification review and quotation.
The packaging specification is confirmed before production so that the box structure, material, dimensions, printing, and packing requirements are clear before mass production.

ODM packaging is suitable when the buyer has a product and packaging requirement but does not yet have a finalized box structure.
A typical development process is:
Product Information → Packaging Requirements → Box Structure → Material Specification → Sample → Approval → Production
Useful information includes:
• Product dimensions
• Product weight
• Product orientation
• Number of products per carton
• Required internal clearance
• Internal protection requirements
• Stacking requirements
• Shipping conditions
• Printing requirements
• Order quantity
A physical product sample, drawing, or detailed photos can help determine the box structure and internal dimensions more accurately.

Custom packaging requires the ability to convert an approved design into a repeatable production specification.
Relevant manufacturing processes may include:
• Corrugated board production
• Printing
• Die cutting
• Folding
• Gluing
• Stitching
• Sample making
• Finished-product inspection
• Export packing
Actual equipment, production capacity, maximum board size, printing capability, and applicable box specifications should be confirmed according to the project.
For buyers with specific production requirements, the quotation process can include confirmation of the applicable production process and technical parameters.

For procurement projects requiring supplier qualification, the following information can be provided where applicable:

Only confirmed factory data should be used for supplier qualification and quotation.

Quality control for custom corrugated packaging should be based on the agreed product specification.
Depending on the packaging requirements, inspection may cover:

The applicable inspection items should be defined according to the product specification and buyer requirements.
Where a buyer has its own inspection standard, drawing, specification, or approved sample, these documents can be used as production references. 

A drawing or physical sample provides information that standard product descriptions cannot fully define.
It can help confirm:
• Required box dimensions
• Product fit
• Internal clearance
• Product orientation
• Folding structure
• Closing method
• Internal protection
• Packing quantity
• Printing position
• Assembly requirements
For a new packaging project, providing a sample or drawing at the quotation stage can reduce uncertainty when determining the required box structure and specification.

Sampling is particularly useful when packaging involves a new structure, tight dimensional requirements, internal protection, or custom printing.
The sample can be used to confirm:
• Product fit
• Internal clearance
• Box dimensions
• Folding and assembly
• Opening and closing
• Printing position
• Artwork
• Packing method
Mass production should follow the approved sample and confirmed specifications.
For repeat orders, the approved sample and production specification can be retained as references for subsequent batches.

For recurring packaging orders, consistent specifications are important for maintaining the same box structure and appearance between production batches.
Production references may include:
• Approved box dimensions
• Box structure
• Paper specification
• Ply and flute
• Printing artwork
• Printing position
• Folding and gluing requirements
• Approved sample
• Inspection requirements
Changes to an approved specification should be confirmed before production.
This provides a defined reference for repeat orders and reduces the risk of unintended changes to the packaging specification.

Where applicable, completed packaging projects can be documented using actual production information.
A useful project record includes:

Project photos should show the actual product packaging, sample, production process, or finished cartons where customer confidentiality permits. 

For a faster and more accurate quotation, provide the following information whenever available:

If the exact board construction is not known, send the product dimensions, product weight, application, current packaging, or product photos. These provide a practical starting point for specification review. 

The commercial requirements for a custom packaging project should be confirmed according to the product specification and order quantity.

MOQ
Minimum order quantity can depend on:
• Box structure
• Material
• Printing requirements
• Production setup
• Order quantity

Samples
Samples can be used to confirm the box structure, product fit, dimensions, printing, and packing method before mass production.

Lead Time
Production lead time depends on factors such as:
• Box structure
• Material availability
• Printing requirements
• Order quantity
• Sample approval
• Production schedule
The applicable MOQ, sample arrangement, and production lead time should be confirmed in the quotation.

Send your box drawing, product dimensions, product photos, existing packaging sample, or packaging requirements for quotation.
For the initial review, provide as much of the following information as available:
Product + Dimensions + Weight + Quantity + Box Type + Material/Ply/Flute + Printing + Application + Destination
If you do not have a finalized packaging specification, send your product information and current packaging reference. The available information can be reviewed before the final packaging specification is confirmed.
