Custom Cardboard Pillow Boxes
Custom cardboard pillow packaging work where standard packaging falls short — products that need shelf presence without the bulk of a rigid setup. Cut from a single scored sheet of 300–400 GSM cardboard, each box folds into its curved shape without glue or tape and ships dead flat to cut storage costs.
Jewelry brands, cosmetics lines, and apparel accessory sellers use these most. Orbix Packaging produces them with full-color CMYK or Pantone printing, plus foil stamping and embossing, on runs as low as 100 units. The tuck-end closure holds lightweight items snug without extra inserts.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is a Pillow Box and Why Should I Use One?
A pillow box is a curved, tuck-closure box cut from one cardboard sheet. No glue required. Best for lightweight retail and gift items.
What Size Pillow Box Do I Need for My Product?
Measure your product’s length, width, and height. Add 5–10 mm clearance per side. Share dimensions with us and we’ll recommend the correct die size.
Can I Print Custom Designs on Cardboard Pillow Boxes?
Yes. We print in CMYK and Pantone spot colors using offset or digital methods. Upload your artwork or use our free design support.
Are Kraft Pillow Boxes Better Than Plastic?
Kraft is recyclable, biodegradable, and lighter. It holds less moisture resistance than plastic, but lamination closes that gap for most retail uses.
How Many Pillow Boxes Should I Order?
Our minimum is 100 units per design. Most small businesses start with 250–500 units. Wholesale pricing lowers per-unit cost on larger runs.
How Long Does It Take to Get Custom Pillow Boxes?
Standard production takes 8–12 business days after sample approval. Rush orders ship in 5–7 days. Add 3–5 days for sample proofing.
Can Pillow Boxes Handle Heavy Items?
Standard cardboard pillow boxes hold items up to 250–300 grams reliably. Heavier products need thicker stock (400+ GSM) or a different box style.
Are Pillow Boxes Good for Gift Packaging?
Pillow boxes are among the most popular gift packaging formats. The curved shape looks premium without extra wrapping, and they accept foil, ribbon, or window finishes.
How to Choose Between Matte and Glossy Pillow Boxes?
Matte gives a soft, understated look and resists fingerprints. Gloss reflects more light and makes colors pop. Choose based on brand tone.
Can Pillow Boxes Be Customized with Die-Cuts?
Yes. We offer custom die-cut windows, hanging tabs, ribbon slots, and unique closure shapes. Send your concept and we’ll produce a sample.
