Product Overview
Built for brands that treat unboxing as part of the product, the Custom Printed Art Square Two-Piece Lid and Base Gift Box pairs art paper with a Two-Piece Lid and Base Gift Box construction that keeps its shape through long-haul shipping and looks considered on shelf. We build each order against a signed sample, so the custom tone and the art paper surface you approve are the ones that land at your warehouse.
The result is a specification that works equally well for a first pilot run and a full container programme for Germany, France and the Nordics. Buyers comparing two piece rigid box with logo usually shortlist this format because it delivers consistent colour across repeat runs and consistent colour across repeat runs without a bespoke tooling budget.
Materials, Construction and Printing
The body uses art paper with a calibrated greyboard core. That combination resists the humidity swings common on sea freight routes into Germany, France and the Nordics.
Decoration options include soft-touch lamination and spot UV varnish, both tested for rub resistance before the order is released for packing. Material choice drives perceived value. art paper gives the Custom Printed Art Square Two-Piece Lid and Base Gift Box a dense, substantial hand-feel while remaining fully recyclable in standard paper streams.

- CMYK or Pantone printing with a signed colour proof before production

MOQ, Price and Lead Time
The published MOQ for this configuration is 200 pieces, with an indicative FOB range of $0.80-1.20 per piece. Those figures are a starting point, not a fixed tariff: board grade, print coverage and finishing all move the final number.
Sample lead time is typically 5-7 working days after artwork approval; mass production follows in 12-18 days depending on finishing. Both dates are confirmed in writing before deposit. Buyers consolidating several SKUs often ask about mixed MOQs. Where the dieline and art paper are shared, we can combine variants to reach the 200 pieces threshold without forcing surplus stock.
Who This Two-Piece Lid and Base Gift Box Is For
Typical orders come from European importers, contract packers and brand owners launching a gift range into department stores or direct-to-consumer channels.
First-time importers get a simple milestone schedule - artwork, proof, sample, production, inspection, dispatch - so there are no surprises at the freight forwarder. This format is regularly specified by gift brands in Germany, France and the Nordics, where buyers want a supplier who understands retailer packaging guidelines and import documentation.
Quality Assurance and Export Packing
Cartons are packed to a declared count, corner-protected and palletised for container loading; we can share photos and a packing list before the balance payment. Third-party inspection is welcome. We routinely host SGS, BV and buyer-appointed auditors at the Shenzhen facility with a day's notice.
How to Order
Start with a sample request. Once you approve the physical sample we reserve the production slot and confirm the delivery window against your launch date.
A short technical call usually settles board grade, insert and finish faster than a long email chain. Our export desk works European business hours by appointment.
