Custom Packaging Cost Breakdown: Materials, Size, and Shipping
Quick Answer for Sourcing
Total custom packaging costs are determined by raw material selection (Kraft vs. Cardstock), printing techniques (CMYK vs. Pantone), surface finishing (Spot UV, Foil), order volume (economies of scale), and shipping method (Sea vs. Air). Factory direct sourcing reduces middleman margins.
Key Buyer Checklist
- Verify MOQ and material specifications.
- Confirm dieline and artwork requirements.
- Request lead time for production and shipping.
