Packaging & Printing

Boxes, bags, labels and printed materials

Packaging and printing supports nearly every industry, and small differences in material or finish have a large impact on cost and brand perception. This category includes corrugated boxes, flexible bags, labels and printed marketing materials. Pandatrade helps you specify the right material, print method and structural requirements to get durable, on-brand packaging at a competitive price.

Main Types & Common Specifications

Corrugated & Carton Boxes

Shipping and retail boxes in single, double and triple wall. Flute type, burst strength and dimensions are the key specs.

Flexible Packaging

Stand-up pouches, flat bags and films. Material layers and barrier properties affect shelf life and print quality.

Labels & Printed Materials

Adhesive labels, tags, brochures and catalogs. Adhesive type and finishing (gloss, matte, foil) matter most.

Key Purchasing Considerations

  • Provide exact dimensions and weight of the product being packaged.
  • Specify print method and color accuracy requirements (e.g. Pantone matching).
  • Request a die-line proof and a physical sample before bulk production.
  • Confirm food-safety compliance if packaging will contact food directly.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right box flute?
B-flute is common for shipping, E-flute for retail display, and double-wall for heavy or fragile goods. Match the flute to product weight and handling.
What printing method should I use for pouches?
Gravure suits long runs with fine detail, while digital suits short runs and fast turnaround. Choose based on order quantity and design complexity.
Do I need food-grade certification for packaging?
If packaging contacts food, yes. Request food-grade material certification and migration test reports from your supplier.
