A sturdy, mailable structure that keeps your brand impact big for products that are small.

Product Details
Econo Mailer

Keep the environment and your wallet in mind with a custom packaging solution that utilizes 30% less material waste than a traditional mailer. The Econo Mailer is structurally designed to efficiently use paper, but also provide a sturdy shipping solution. Once folded, the sides will have three layers of corrugated material and the top and bottom will have two layers, assuring that your product is safely packed within your custom box.

The durability of this solution makes it perfect for many uses, but we recommend using it to ship small products. Keep your brand impact big by customizing your box with an uploaded file or by editing one of our many provided templates. Get your product safely into the hands of your customers, but also provide an unmatched unboxing experience!

Inks

We digitally print each custom box with UV ink. With this specialized technology and the full CMYK color gamut, you don't have to limit your creativity. Pick as many colors as you want or print a photographic image without any extra cost. The UV curing process ensures that your art won't crack, chip, or rub off. 

Our UV inks are not suitable for use in primary food packaging or direct food contact. They may be used for secondary food packaging applications but only when using an adequate primary food packaging material that serves as a migration barrier.

Finishes
Matte

Our matte finish, printed on our bright white paper provides a beautiful flat finish for your art. Fine details and text will remain clear and your custom colors will be accurate.

Gloss

If printing photographic images is important to your brand, choose our gloss finish, printed our bright white paper. The glossy effect will make your art pop! Areas with high color saturation will be shiny, contrasting with low-saturation or unprinted areas that will appear matte.

Kraft

Choose brown paper inside and out if you are looking for an earthy or rugged appearance for your shipper. Dark colors print especially well, but please note that the accuracy of colors is not controllable when printed on a brown surface.

Shipping

All custom boxes are manufactured and shipped from our HQ in Concord, NC. UPS ground shipping is our default. Your custom boxes are packed into an outer shipper and will weigh no more than 50 pounds each. All orders over 200 pounds or 10 individual shipping boxes will be palletized and shipped via UPS Freight unless specified in a message to a customer service representative.

You will receive a shipping notification when your order is being processed for shipping. Please allow 24 hours for the tracking number to populate your shipping information. Expedited shipping is available on the shipping calculator. If you require special shipping instructions such as blind shipping, a house UPS account, or an alternate shipping arrangement, please reach out to customers service to approve and process your request.

Production Time

Keeping you at the forefront of our minds, we strive to produce your product at the most productive speed possible. The production time is defined as the amount of time it takes from when you pay for your custom boxes, to the day it is ready to ship. Please note that our production schedule operates on business days.

Taping

Most adhesives don't stick well to UV ink printed surfaces, so it's important to plan when purchasing tape and choosing a location for your shipping label. We recommend acrylic adhesive tape for any printed boxes. We do not recommend any specific brand over another - any tape that includes acrylic adhesive will do the trick. Storage tape or sealing tape in general is a step in the right direction, as they typically use an acrylic adhesive that withstands UV-light exposure and temperature fluctuations.

If you are shipping your boxes without any protective outer packaging, it's a good idea to leave a blank area on your box design so your shipping label has unprinted material to stick to. Many customers get creative with this blank shipping label area and add a border or other design elements, so it looks intentional with or without a shipping label in place.
