Candles boxes and packaging
Candles packaging has to handle fragile vessels and freight. Boxes for glass vessels and tins that survive shipping and look good on a mantelpiece. Popular formats include tube, collapsible and mailer. We design them and make them in our own factory in Pakistan from MOQ 500, shipping worldwide.
Packaging needs
What candles packaging must do
Fragile vessels
Glass needs a snug insert and a box that survives drops.
Freight
Many candle brands ship overseas; collapsible boxes cut carton volume.
Compliance notes
Labelling rules depend on your product and the markets you sell in. We lay out the required text and symbols on the box; the wording itself comes from you or your compliance adviser.
