Frequently asked questions

• What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom rigid boxes?

  Our standard MOQ is 500 pieces per design.
  However, we understand that brands may want to test new packaging lines — so smaller trial orders are welcome.
  For long-term partners or repeat orders, we offer flexible production scaling to match your business growth.

  🟢 Tip: We recommend ordering slightly above the MOQ to ensure color consistency across your production batch.

• What sustainable materials do you offer for rigid boxes?

  At EcoiColor, sustainability is at the core of every box we make.
  We proudly offer a wide range of eco-certified materials, including:

  • GRS (Global Recycled Standard) Certified Recycled Paper — ensures that post-consumer recycled fibers are traceable and ethically sourced.

  • FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) Certified Paper — guarantees that the paper comes from responsibly managed forests.

  • Recycled Greyboard — made from 100% post-industrial waste paper, ideal for luxury rigid box bases.

  • Water-based or Soy-based Inks — an eco-friendly alternative to petroleum-based inks.

  By choosing these materials, your brand not only enhances product appeal but also demonstrates a genuine commitment to sustainability and circular packaging.

• What is the average turnaround time for production?

  Our average lead time for production is 30–40 days after final sample approval. This may vary depending on order quantity, design complexity, and required finishing options. For urgent projects, we can prioritize production through our fast-track schedule while maintaining strict quality standards.

  Prototyping (Sampling): Typically takes 7–10 days.

  Mass Production (Lead Time): 30–40 days.

  Global Shipping: 7–15 days by air; 25–60 days by sea, depending on the destination port.

• Can I get a physical sample before placing a bulk order?

  Absolutely. We offer two types of samples:

  • Digital Mockup (Free): Ideal for checking design layout and logo placement.

  • Physical Prototype (Paid, refundable): Crafted with your chosen materials and finishes, perfect for assessing structure and quality.

  Once the sample is approved, we proceed to mass production — ensuring what you see is exactly what you get.

• How does your design process work?

  Our in-house design process combines creativity, technical expertise, and brand strategy:

  1. Consultation: We discuss your goals, target market, and packaging vision.

  2. Concept Development: Our designers create multiple visual concepts based on your brand identity.

  3. Prototyping: A physical sample is produced for testing structure, color, and texture.

  4. Approval & Production: Once approved, production begins with full color management and quality assurance.

  Every step is transparent and collaborative — helping you transform your vision into a memorable unboxing experience.

• What are the differences between rigid boxes and folding cartons?

  Rigid boxes and folding cartons differ in both structure and market positioning:

  Feature	Rigid Boxes	Folding Cartons
  Material	Thick greyboard (1.5–3mm) wrapped with printed paper	Thin paperboard (250–400gsm)
  Durability	High — maintains shape and protects premium products	Moderate — cost-effective and lightweight
  Appearance	Luxurious, sturdy, ideal for gifts or high-end retail	Simple, foldable, often used for mass retail
  MOQ	Usually higher due to manual wrapping	Lower MOQ possible
  Target Use	Cosmetics, jewelry, perfumes, electronics	FMCG, food, pharmaceuticals

  EcoiColor specializes in luxury rigid boxes, offering superior texture, structural integrity, and sustainable materials — perfect for brands that value presentation as much as protection.

• Do your factory certifications (BSCI, Sedex) benefit my business?

  Yes — significantly.
  Our BSCI (Business Social Compliance Initiative) and Sedex certifications ensure that every product is made under ethical, safe, and transparent conditions.

  For your business, this means:

  • Stronger brand reputation through responsible sourcing.

  • Easier partnerships with global retailers who require ethical compliance.

  • Consistent quality and reliability across the entire supply chain.

  In short, our certifications protect not only workers — but also your brand’s integrity in the global market.
