• Embossing / Debossing: Creates a raised (embossed) or recessed (debossed) texture, adding a sophisticated, tactile element.

Building a Better Box: Material Choices for Your Brand

The foundation of a great box is its material. We offer a range of food-grade cardboard options to align with your brand values and functional needs.

• Clay-Coated Newsback (CCNB): The industry standard. Offers a brilliant white, super-smooth printing surface on one side, perfect for vibrant, high-quality graphics.
• Kraft Paperboard: The go-to choice for eco-friendly printed boxes. Its natural, brown, rustic look communicates an organic, all-natural, and sustainable brand identity.
• Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS): A premium, bright white board made from bleached pulp. It is exceptionally strong and provides the best possible surface for a luxury print finish.
• Recycled Paperboard: Made from 100% post-consumer waste, this is the most tangible way to showcase your brand's commitment to sustainability. It has a distinctive grey-brown color perfect for environmentally conscious brands.

Investing in Your Brand's Growth: Understanding Cost

We believe in transparent pricing. The investment in your custom printed cereal boxes is influenced by several factors, allowing you to control your budget effectively.

Key Factors Influencing Your Quote:

• Quantity: The single biggest factor. Ordering wholesale printed cereal boxes in bulk significantly reduces the per-unit cost.
• Material: Standard CCNB is the most economical, while premium SBS or kraft paperboard may have a slightly higher cost.
• Printing & Color: The number of colors and the printing method (e.g., CMYK printing vs. spot colors) affect the price.
• Size & Complexity: Larger boxes and intricate custom die-cut shapes require more material and complex manufacturing.
• Finishing Touches: Add-ons like foil stamping, embossing, or spot UV add to the cost but also dramatically increase perceived value.

Our Promise: We work diligently to provide the most competitive pricing for custom cereal box packaging in the USA without compromising on quality or service.
