Sleeve boxes and belly bands are useful when the product already has a tray, jar, pouch or inner pack. They add printed branding without changing the whole package structure.

Common questions

Before you request a sample.

Are sleeve boxes cheaper than full boxes?

Often yes. A printed sleeve uses less paper and can be easier to change between product variants.

Can a sleeve be used with an existing package?

Yes. Send the current package size and photos so the sleeve can be sized for a snug fit.

Send the basic packaging details. Get a practical answer back.

Share the box or bag style, size, quantity and destination. Artwork is helpful, but not required for the first estimate. If your project has recycled paper, FSC paper, plastic-free packaging or supplier code requirements, send them before sampling.
