Structure
Lid-to-base ratio and inserts customizable to your needs
Core Structure
Top-and-bottom structure
The top-and-bottom box is formed by a lid (top) and base (bottom) that fit together. Lid height is typically one-third to one-half of base depth, fully covering the product while remaining easy to open. Proper lid-to-base clearance and board thickness determine rigidity and hand feel.
Design Points
Top-and-bottom is a classic premium gift-box structure with visual stability and built-in ceremony. Key design points are lid-to-base proportion and clearance: too tall looks top-heavy; too short offers insufficient protection. Clearance must balance smooth fitting with transit stability; heavy or high-value products can add inner lining or a magnetic catch.
01
Full lid: lid fully covers the base for the best enclosure
02
Short lid: lid is shorter than the base, exposing the base edge for layered visual effect
03
Beveled lid: lid edge is beveled for a more modern look
Customization Tips
Standard lid height is 1/3–1/2 of base depth; display packs can use a taller lid
Lid-to-base clearance of 1–2 mm is recommended; too loose causes rattle, too tight makes opening difficult
Corner wrapping improves rigidity and durability
EVA/sponge inserts shaped to the product can be added inside the lid for extra protection
Separate lid and baseCrisp formingSmooth opening
Lid-to-base proportions
Standard ratio: lid height about 1/3 of base depth for visual stability
Tall lid: lid height approaches or exceeds base depth for display-oriented packs
Shallow lid: lower lid height makes product access easier after opening
Board materials
Wrapped greyboard: thick and crisp, preferred for mid-to-high-end gift boxes
Wrapped MDF: higher hardness for heavy or collectible products
Corrugated lamination: cushioning plus rigidity for heavier products
Surface finishes
Matte/gloss lamination: improves abrasion resistance and hand feel
Hot foil stamping: highlights brand logo and premium feel
Embossing/debossing: adds paper texture and visual depth
Insert fixation
EVA insert: precision cutouts, shock and scratch resistant
Sponge/flocking: soft protection for jewelry
Paper/plastic tray: economical and eco-friendly for light products
Sizing
Length and width tailored to product and insert dimensions
Lid-to-base clearance typically 1–2 mm for smooth fitting
Closure and decoration
Direct fit: relies on lid weight — most common
Magnetic catch: improves closure stability for frequent opening
Ribbon/band: adds gift-opening ceremony
