Subscription Box Packaging
Direct-to-consumer subscription-based brands succeed or fail on customer retention. Ones that invest in the quality and appearance of their cartons are more likely to cultivate a loyal subscriber base than those who opt for plain, forgettable packaging.
Abbott-Action understands that packaging is one of the most powerful marketing tools for brands across industries, especially for brands selling directly to consumers. We’ve been providing top-tier corrugated packaging products and services since 1935.
Reach out to our experts today about your subscription box packaging needs and we’ll deliver solutions that balance product protection with visual interest to impress your customers and keep them coming back.
Different subscription box packaging structural styles exist to suit the needs of different products. After all, a toothbrush subscription service has shipping requirements that contrast with those of a wine subscription service. That’s why Abbott-Action starts with your products and designs outward. From low profile mailers to oblong mailers and everything in between, we have e-commerce boxes for every brand.
Along with format, board choice plays a key role in subscription box performance. Thin E-flute delivers a crisp, retail-quality look with a slim profile. Heavier products typically require B-flute for greater cushioning and stacking strength. Our engineers recommend the best board and box configuration based on product weight and shipping conditions.
Your brand, including its imagery and messaging, should be accurately represented on all subscription box packaging. Abbott-Action’s in-house graphic design team works closely with you to match colors and keep logos looking sharp on the corrugated board.
Our printing capabilities encompass digital and flexographic as well as hybrid technologies to cater to a variety of applications. Flexo is a cost-effective method for bold graphics and larger volumes, while digital is ideal for shorter runs such as seasonal items or limited editions.
Plus, printing isn’t just for the exterior of corrugated shipping boxes. Adding branding elements to the interior of the carton further amplifies the customer experience. Whether it’s social media handles printed under the lid or a colorful pattern that appears as flaps unfold, there are countless opportunities to encourage customer engagement and reinforce brand identity.
Our Apstar rotary die cutter expands those possibilities by printing up to two colors on the inside of the box in the same pass that it prints up to five colors on the outside and die-cuts the structure. This efficient, all-in-one process creates a polished unboxing experience and helps maintain precise alignment and production consistency.
Corrugated subscription boxes get dropped, stacked, and tossed onto conveyor belts before they arrive at a customer’s doorstep. Abbott Action’s packaging is engineered to survive the journey with shape and graphics intact.
Custom sizing is a significant factor in this durability. Our subscription box packaging is designed for products to fit snugly inside, which provides reliable protection and minimizes dimensional weight charges. We also build containers with fulfillment in mind. Mailers that fold into shape quickly save time and labor for brands that need to pack thousands of orders a month.
Don’t let customers discount your product before they even open the box. Call Abbott-Action for subscription box packaging that protects products in transit while creating a memorable brand experience. With our integrated services and e-commerce packaging capabilities, it’s no wonder why brands across different industries turn to us for corrugated solutions.
