A slotted box is one folded sheet of corrugated board with slots cut where the flaps bend. Custom slotted boxes come in several styles, and these three cover most orders. We check product weight and stacking height against the flap depth before confirming a style. Tell us what you ship, and we will suggest the style that uses the least board.
Box sizes are written as inside length, width and height, in inches. Standard stock in regular slotted containers runs from about 6 x 4 x 4 in up to 24 x 18 x 18 in. Any other size can be cut to order. Small shipping boxes suit cosmetics and subscription items. Larger cartons suit bedding, wholesale restocking, house moves, and trade show kits. Slotted boxes ship flat, so they save warehouse space, and a closer fit lowers the dimensional weight charge from carriers. Every product is measured with its inner packing in place before a dieline is cut. We cut each size to your exact dimensions. Share those measurements with us, and we will confirm the box.
Most slotted boxes use single wall corrugated board, and heavier loads move up to double-wall. The edge crush test rating shows how much stacking pressure the board can take. As a rough guide, 32 ECT suits loads up to about 65 lb, and 44 ECT suits loads up to about 95 lb. Your box weight sets the ECT rating and calliper on the quote, and the board spec is confirmed before the run is cut.E flute is about 1/16 in thick, B flute about 1/8 in, and C flute about 5/32 in, and C is the usual choice for corrugated mailer boxes. Double wall corrugated suits heavy loads, as in our heavy-duty shipping containers. Most of our board has recycled corrugated content, with a kraft or white liner on any grade. We ask for your packed weight up front, so the grade we quote matches the load. Share your box weight with us, and we will confirm the flute and ECT rating.
You can leave a slotted box in plain kraft or print your logo in one or two colors. Flexo printing keeps the cost per box low on larger runs. Digital printing suits short runs and detailed artwork. Litho-laminated board gives the sharpest color for boxes that sit on a shelf. You can print the inside of the box too. Our custom printed corrugated boxes use water-based inks, and an aqueous coating helps the print resist scuffs in transit. Logos are placed on the dieline first, clear of the scores and slots, and approved before printing starts. Our supplies a finished dieline with every print job. Your artwork is set on it by us, ready for your sign-off.

A slotted box is a corrugated box constructed from one sheet of board with slots cut for the flaps. The flaps fold down to complete the box, so you do not require a separate lid.
That depends on the board and the size. Slotted boxes in C flute or double wall take heavier loads and more stacking. Mailer boxes suit lighter boxes where presentation matters.
Single wall works for products under about 65 lb. Select double wall for heavy items, tall pallet stacks, or long transportation.

An RSC has slotted flaps on the top and bottom, so it locks at both ends. An HSC is slotted on one side and remains open on the other, which fits trays and separate lids.
