Custom Cylinder Rigid Boxes
A square box wastes space around a round product, and a candle jar rattles inside it. Custom cylinder rigid boxes fix that. They start as 1.2mm to 2mm greyboard rolled into a one-piece tube, wrapped in 128gsm printed art paper, then closed with a telescoping lid and a locked base disc that keeps the wall round under compression.
Candle makers and small-batch tea roasters order them most. Skip them if you need cartons that collapse flat for storage, because a rolled tube ships assembled and takes real shelf space.

Key features and benefits of printed cylinder boxes
Custom cylinder rigid boxes protect through wall stiffness, not padding. A 2mm greyboard tube resists radial crush far better than a folded carton, which matters when a pallet stacks six cartons high. The telescoping lid overlaps the body by 20mm to 30mm, so the closure holds without tape and shows tampering when the wrap tears. Printed art paper laminated to the tube keeps color flat and even across a curve, where cheap wrap shows seam shadow. Our rigid board material guide covers where 1.2mm stops working.
Drop Impact
Rolled greyboard wall absorbs drop impact.
Aqueous Coating
Aqueous coating resists humidity and condensation.
Radial Crush Strength
Radial crush strength under stacked pallets.
Tamper Evidence
Torn wrap seam reveals tampering instantly.
Flat Lids
Flat lids let tubes stack upright.
Foil Logo
Foil logo reads across a retail shelf.
175 LPI Offset
175 LPI offset holds gradient detail.
Edge-Lined Interior
Edge-lined interior signals gift-grade presentation.
Packaging styles and customization
Five structures cover most cylinder orders. Short wide tubes suit candles. Tall narrow tubes suit spirits and posters.
Available Styles
- Telescoping lid
- Friction-fit lid with push-up base
- Tear-strip tube
- Ribbon-pull lid
- Window lid with a 0.010 inch PET disc
Custom Sizes
We cut tooling to your product width and fill height rather than to a stock diameter.
Printing Options
We match Pantone Solid Coated within Delta E 2 on the wrap sheet.
Logo Placement
Foil and spot UV sit on the lid face or run around the body.
Optional Add-ons
Inserts come as die-cut EVA foam, corrugated rings, or a printed paperboard collar cut to your product diameter.
Custom Packaging Available: Building a matched range? Pair these with custom rigid boxes on the same wrap run.

Custom cylinder rigid boxes FAQs
What's the Difference Between Rigid Boxes and Regular Cardboard Boxes?
Rigid boxes use 1.2mm to 2mm greyboard wrapped in printed paper and ship assembled. Cardboard cartons fold flat for storage and bend under the same load.
What Materials Are Used in Custom Rigid Boxes?
Greyboard chipboard forms the tube wall at 1.2mm to 2mm. A 128gsm to 157gsm C1S art paper or kraft wrap carries the print and finish.
What Size Custom Rigid Box Do I Need for My Products?
Measure your product at its widest point and add 2mm clearance for the diameter, plus 5mm headroom under the lid. Send both numbers and we cut tooling.
What's the Minimum Order Quantity for Custom Rigid Boxes?
One hundred units on digital print, 500 on offset. Digital suits sample runs and seasonal SKUs. Offset makes sense once you repeat the same artwork.
What's the Lead Time for Custom Rigid Boxes?
Twelve to 15 business days after proof approval. Rush runs finish in 8 to 9 days. Hand assembly on tubes adds time compared with folding cartons.
What Printing Options Are Available for Custom Rigid Boxes?
Offset litho at 175 LPI on the wrap sheet, digital for short runs, and screen printing for solid one-color kraft. Add foil, spot UV, or embossing after.
Can Custom Rigid Boxes Be Made with Foam Inserts?
Yes. Die-cut EVA foam holds jars and bottles inside the tube. Corrugated rings work for lighter items and keep the pack recyclable in most curbside streams.
Do Custom Rigid Boxes Protect Contents During Shipping?
They protect on the shelf and inside a shipper, not as a mailer. Pack tubes in 32 ECT corrugated with a divider so lids stay seated.
Can Rigid Boxes Be Recycled or Reused?
Uncoated kraft or SBS wraps stay curbside recyclable. Lamination, foil, and PET windows block repulping, so pick aqueous coating when recyclability drives the spec.
What Questions Should I Ask When Ordering Custom Rigid Boxes?
Ask about board thickness, wrap paper weight, lid overlap depth, Pantone tolerance, proof turnaround, and who pays for reruns on color misses. Get answers in writing.
