FAQ:General Questions About Production and Sustainability
We'll answer all your questions about packaging and cardboard display designs made of cardboard: from logistics to product features and applications across various industries.
- How do you choose the most suitable type of cardboard?
The type of cardboard should be selected based on the type of product it will contain, the total weight of the box’s contents, and transportation and storage requirements. Laboratory tests provide a preliminary estimate of the load-bearing capacity of various types of cardboard (ECT parameters for the cardboard, BCT for the vertical compression strength of the assembled box), and based on these parameters, we can determine the exact type of material best suited for each project.
- Do you make bag-in-box products?
Yes, we manufacture and customize the corrugated cardboard outer packaging for our Bag-in-Box solutions. Our cardboard boxes are designed and printed in high definition to perfectly accommodate, down to the millimeter, the inner plastic bag containing the liquid (wine, oil, juices, or other industrial fluids). We perform precision die-cutting of the opening for the dispenser tap and guarantee a sturdy box that can withstand stacking and transport.
- What geographic area do you deliver to?
We operate and regularly deliver our products throughout Italy, with a particularly extensive presence in the regions of Northern Italy. We also handle shipments and deliveries to international customers. Logistical feasibility and shipping terms are evaluated and agreed upon during the quotation phase based on the nature of the project and the order volumes.
- Are your cardboard boxes FSC-certified?
Yes, our entire production process is deeply committed to environmental sustainability. We use cellulosic raw materials sourced from environmentally responsible, certified forests or from controlled recycled sources. Upon customer request, we can produce FSC-certified packaging by incorporating the relevant traceability logo directly into the box’s print layout. Furthermore, we use only eco-friendly, water-based inks that contain no solvents or harmful substances, ensuring that our packaging is 100% recyclable and biodegradable.
- Do you have a catalog of your products?
We have a catalog that showcases the product categories in our lineup: industrial packaging, shipping packaging, luxury packaging, and retail displays. We also offer specific, regularly updated catalogs for each product family. The catalogs showcase our standard solutions, die-cut and folding-box models manufactured to FEFCO standards, and the various customization options available through different printing and finishing techniques. You can download the catalogs directly from the dedicated section of our website or request them from our sales team to receive personalized assistance.
- What are the delivery times?
Delivery times vary depending on the nature and complexity of the order. For the production of custom-made packaging with printed graphics, delivery generally takes place within approximately 4 weeks of final approval of the graphic design and structural design. For standard boxes already in stock, shipping and delivery times are very quick, ranging from 5 to 7 business days.
- Do you have any boxes ready in stock?
Yes, to meet the needs of urgent and/or small-quantity packaging needs , we offer a selection of cardboard boxes, boxes e-commerce , and standard mailing envelopes that are ready to in stock in sizes optimized for the main logistics and shipping needs with express couriers. These items can be viewed directly in the catalog on our website (see ready-made boxes catalog) and are available for quick delivery. For e-commerce boxes and envelopes, we also offer a simple customization service upon request.
- Can I get some samples?
Yes, we consider physical prototyping a crucial step in ensuring the project’s success. For custom projects, we develop and provide—at the customer’s request—a physical prototype created using a cutting plotter and digital printing. This allows the customer to test the exact dimensions, structural stability, and compatibility with their products in a real-world setting before beginning production of the final batch.
- I'm a private individual. Can I buy from you?
Our manufacturing operations are focused on B2B supply to companies, e-commerce businesses, graphic design firms, and commercial distributors. We do not sell retail to individual consumers for personal use. However, we can fulfill small-quantity orders using standard packaging solutions from our catalog of boxes in stock, subject to the minimum order quantities specified for each item.
- What are the minimum production quantities?
We are organized to flexibly serve both medium and large industrial print runs. The minimum cost-effective production lot for industrial boxes averages about 200 pieces for large-sized packaging or complex displays, and rises to about 500 pieces for small boxes. These thresholds allow us to optimize the fixed costs associated with machine startup and press setup, ensuring the best unit cost per box for the customer. For premium box projects —such as laminated boxes, gift boxes, collapsible boxes, bottom-and-lid boxes, etc.—smaller quantities can also be ordered.
