Tips For Preserving Kraft Boxes

When it comes to meeting your custom printing needs

When it comes to meeting your custom printing needs, nothing is more prolifically used than Kraft boxes. From boxes to packaging peanuts, you have no end to what you can do with them. In order to print on these items, you will need a special type of inks that are manufactured by Kraft Foods, LLC and are known as "boxes with holes." Read on to learn more about Kraft boxes and why they are such a good choice.

One of the benefits of using Kraft boxes is that they are reusable. They are also the number one choice for so many companies around the world. Their sturdy rough texture is the key ingredient to their endless creative branding schemes.

And, the fact that they're all made of 100 percent post-consumer non-woven coated leathers is just the icing on the top of the cake. The high degree of customization you can provide them with makes Kraft boxes just as visually appealing as they are functionally useful. That is, of course, unless you choose to use their heavier items like boxes and packaging peanuts in their product designs. But even then, they will never fail to add charm and panache to any setting.

you can have your company logo printed right on your custom Kraft boxes

For example, you can have your company logo printed right on your custom Kraft boxes. Or you can get your logo printed onto the product's surface, which makes it easy to identify the box whenever they're opened or unopened. You can also get your company name and contact information printed on the product as well.

You can also mix and match color palettes for Kraft boxes. The classic black and white look is a perennial favorite that's been around since the brand's inception. However, you can play around with Kraft box colors by choosing your box's finish, its primary color, and its accent color. For instance, you may want your boxes to appear more festive with a red trim and accents of white contrasting colors (versus the more subdued purples, greens, browns, and taupe you'd usually see with Kraft boxes).

Kraft Boxes doesn't necessarily come in just black anymore. They also come in a wide variety of other colors like purple, blue, aqua, pink, and more. You can get your company's logo printed on Kraft boxes' surface, or you can also have cutouts of your company's logo printed on their boxes. Or, if you're worried about how your packaging materials look, you can always go with the clear box and the cardboard cutouts.

In order to brighten up your Kraft boxes without spending too much, you should always use ink that's meant for cosmetic products. Colored pigments are usually safe for cosmetic products, but there are some colors which may not be safe for use with Kraft boxes. For example, it's okay to use a shade of turquoise in combination with brown ink, but you must use a different shade of Kraft paper for ink or you'll end up with a bleeding effect. The same goes for using different shade of ink with yourlet's acid-free paper; however, you must use water-based Kraft paper with this combination so that yourlet's acid won't react with the ink. Also, make sure that yourlet's packaging materials, especially the cutouts, are made from non-toxic material.

If you want to save money when ordering Kraft boxes

If you want to save money when ordering Kraft boxes, you should know that in most cases you'll have to select either brown ink or white ink for your box's trim. Even if you buy Kraft paper which is packaged in brown ink, you'll need to use water-based Kraft paper in order to avoid causing damage to your boxes by bleaching the edges. While both ink colors look great on Kraft boxes, they're best used with Kraft paper which has already been pre-colored and has been cut into the appropriate shapes. White ink can also be used but make sure that it's wrapped in muslin to prevent damage to the box's underside.
