What Are Custom Mailer Boxes?

Custom mailer boxes are corrugated or cardboard boxes printed with your brand’s design. They self-seal with interlocking flaps — no tape required. They ship flat to your warehouse, assemble in seconds, and deliver a branded experience the moment your customer opens the package.

They serve two jobs at once: protect the product in transit and communicate your brand before the customer even sees what’s inside.

Alaska Boxes manufactures custom mailer boxes in any size, any print, and any finish. You choose the stock weight. You choose whether to print inside, outside, or both. You choose the coating. We handle production and ship directly to you.

Why Your Packaging Is a Marketing Asset

73% of consumers say they are more likely to buy again from a brand that delivers in premium packaging. A plain brown box says nothing about your brand. A custom printed mailer box with your logo, tagline, and brand colors says everything — before the customer even opens it.

Brands using custom mailer boxes report:

  • Higher social shares from unboxing moments
  • Lower return rates due to better product protection
  • Stronger repeat purchase rates tied to the perceived quality of the experience

If your product competes on quality, your packaging should say so.

Materials Guide: Which Stock Should You Choose?

12pt–14pt cardboard — Best for lightweight products like cosmetics, accessories, and apparel under 500g. Excellent print surface.

16pt–18pt cardboard — The most popular range. Handles most eCommerce products well. Good balance of cost and durability.

20pt–24pt cardboard — For heavier products or brands that want a noticeably thick, premium feel when the customer picks up the box.

Kraft stock — Natural brown surface. Pairs beautifully with 1–2 color printing. Popular with food, wellness, and eco-focused brands.

E-flute corrugated — The go-to for most mailer boxes. Thin (1/16″), lightweight, strong enough for products up to 15 lbs, and takes print extremely well.

B-flute corrugated — Thicker (1/8″), better compression strength. Use when your product is fragile, glass-adjacent, or ships long distances with multiple handoffs.

FAQs

What is a custom mailer box?

A custom mailer box is a corrugated or cardboard box printed with your brand’s logo, colors, and design. It self-seals with interlocking flaps — no tape required. Custom mailer boxes are used for eCommerce shipments, subscription boxes, influencer kits, and retail packaging.

What is the difference between a mailer box and a shipping box?

A mailer box self-seals without tape and is designed for lighter products and branded presentation. A shipping box (RSC style) requires tape, handles heavier loads, and is more functional than decorative. If your product is under 20 lbs and presentation matters to your brand, a mailer box is the right choice.

Do you print logos and custom designs on mailer boxes?

Yes. We print full CMYK color on the outside, the inside, or both surfaces. You send us your artwork or our design team creates it for you at no charge.

What flute type do you use for mailer boxes?

We use E-flute (1/16″ thick) corrugated for most mailer box orders — it is lightweight, prints sharply, and handles most standard eCommerce products. B-flute (1/8″) is available for heavier or more fragile items.

Do you offer inside printing?

Yes. Inside printing is available on all mailer box styles. Brands use the interior surface for thank-you messages, discount codes, brand stories, social media handles, and unboxing instructions. Interior printing adds approximately 15–20% to the per-unit cost and is one of the most effective ways to increase social sharing.

What eco-friendly options are available?

We offer FSC-certified kraft stock, recycled corrugated material, soy-based inks, and biodegradable coating options. All standard materials are 100% recyclable.

How long does production take?

Standard production takes 10–15 business days from artwork approval. Rush orders with 4–8 business day production are available on request.

Do you provide a proof before production?

Yes. Every order includes a full digital artwork proof before production begins. Physical samples are available on request.

Do you offer free design assistance?

Yes. Our in-house design team provides free consultation and artwork support for every order. If you have a logo or brand guidelines, we build the full box design for you.

Do you ship to Canada?

Yes. Free shipping covers all orders to the United States and Canada. Boxes ship flat to minimize freight cost.

What file format do you need for artwork?

We accept PDF, AI, EPS, PNG, JPG, and WEBP files. We recommend submitting in CMYK color mode at 300 DPI for the sharpest print results. We also provide die-line templates for each box size.
