Our MOQs (minimum order quantity) is based on the cost of tooling and setup for our factories to produce your custom packaging. Since these MOQs are set for the benefit of our customers to help save on costs, it is not recommended to go below our MOQs listed below.
For reference; an offset (lithography) printed corrugated box with a quantity of 500 boxes will cost just as much for a lower quantity of 100 boxes when manufacturing multiple times because you will be paying for setup fees multiple times. Please refer to our packaging guide on cost optimization for a more in-depth explanation.

To determine the correct box size you need, measure your product left to right (length), front to back (width) and bottom to top (depth). Add 1/8″ – 1/4″ to each dimension to give a little bit of wiggle room to your product!

Digital Print
 
Digital printed packaging is created using a digital printer to print directly on the material, similar to how a desktop inkjet printer would print on paper (but on a larger scale).
  1. Lower print quality than offset printing.
  2. It does not require an additional tooling fee, making it more affordable for smaller quantity orders.
 
Offset Print
 
Offset printing uses metal plates to layer color in succession, offering superior image quality and greater cost-efficiency for larger volume production runs.
  1. Highest print quality.
  2. Recommended for high quantity orders due to additional tooling/setup fee

A dieline serves as a blueprint that ensures the correct layout for artwork designs on your packaging. It is essential to the cutting and creasing process as it gives our machines the appropriate information to precisely cut and fold areas of your packaging.
 
Dielines play a crucial role in the production process of your packaging as it is the only acceptable format recognized by printers and die-cutting machines for manufacturing.
 
Dielines includes information such as;
  1. Fold lines – lines that indicate where your packaging should be folded to construct your packaging.
  2. Cut lines – lines that indicate where the die-cutting machine should cut to create your packaging
  3. Bleed lines – lines that mark excess space to account for any movement of the substrate during printing.
  4. Safety lines – lines that communicate to the printer to establish where important elements (such as logos and artwork) will be present on your packaging.
 
CMYK stands for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black and is the color space commonly used within the printing industry.
 
Before your packaging is sent to our manufacturing facilities for print, it is important that your artwork on our dielines are all in CMYK.
 
Not converting your artwork properly to CMYK color mode will result in inaccurate color output since the printing press can only operate using CMYK colors.
 
Note:  As part of our process, we conduct an additional pre-press check to ensure that the files are perfect before moving onto production. During the pre-press check, PakFactory is not responsible for correcting your files in the event of the print file not meeting our standard. We require our customers to correct their files. However, we are more than happy to advise and guide you through making the necessary corrections. 
Most of our packaging is shipped flat to optimize shipping costs; however it requires minor assembly upon arrival.

Special rigid box structures may need to be shipped in their constructed form as they can’t be flattened due to the nature of the box style.

We aim to package all of our products accordingly and with care to ensure your packaging can withstand the potentially harsh elements of travel and handling.
