Premium Presentation with Cardboard for Gift Boxes
In the gift and retail sector, presentation is everything. From luxury items to promotional products, packaging plays a vital role in shaping customer perception and brand value. Shoppers expect packaging that looks premium, protects the product, and aligns with sustainability expectations.
Our presentation box cardboard provides the strength and finish required to create high-quality gift boxes. With options in black or white lined greyboard, this material is trusted by box manufacturers to deliver durability, style, and recyclability in one solution.
Presentation Box Boards
We supply black and white lined greyboard specifically designed for use in presentation packaging.
- Thickness: typically 1.2–2.0 mm
- Format: black or white lining for a premium finish
- Application: the glossy printed outer wrap is laminated to the grey side, while the interior remains sleek black or white
This material gives manufacturers the flexibility to produce luxury boxes that not only look the part but are also structurally robust.
Benefits of Cardboard in Gift & Retail Packaging
- Premium presentation – achieves a high-quality, professional look
- Strong and protective – ideal for fragile or high-value products
- Versatile finishes – compatible with a wide range of printed wraps and foils
