Let’s Get Started

Customer Journey

Engineering

Mankato Packaging engineers will work with you to determine the size, shape and material of your box. With functionality and aesthetics in mind, engineers will create a
digital spec of your box.

Design

Upon approval, engineers will create a three-dimensional prototype of your carton. The design will be tested for feasibility and any necessary adjustments will be made.

Production

Next, your carton is on to production. Using offset printing, graphics and text will be printed on to your packaging.

Coating + Die-cutting

Based on your box’s specific requirements, processes like coating or embossing would happen at this stage. During the die-cutting process, individual cartons will be
cut out
of the original sheet.

Folding + Gluing

In the final stage of the manufacturing process, flat, die cut pieces will be fed for folding and gluing.

Delivery

Now your cartons are on their way to you, ready for your product!

FAQs

DO YOU SUPPLY BOXES FOR SHIPPING OR MOVING?

No, we do not. Those are made of corrugated material and we print and manufacture specifically paperboard. Think cereal boxes!

WHAT ARE YOUR MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM ORDER QUANTITIES?

Loaded question! Normally we quote a minimum quantity of 1,000; anything lower is not cost efficient for either party. If you need a smaller quantity, we can discuss sample options. As for maximum orders, there’s not an exact number established. If the price is right, we will run it!

DO YOU HAVE PLAIN STOCKED BOXES IN SPECIFIC SIZES?

All our designs are completely customized to fit your needs. Our team is excited for the opportunity to assist you!

CAN YOU DESIGN MY ART?

We do not provide graphic design work in house; rather, we can work closely with your design team to bring your vision to life! Our prepress and packaging design team can make small adjustments to existing artwork, but do not create new artwork designs.

HOW MANY COLORS CAN MY ARTWORK DESIGN INCLUDE?

We print anywhere from one color to full color jobs.
