About Us
Great packaging doesn't always mean a full redesign. Sometimes the box you already have is fine - it just needs a sleeve that makes it look intentional, branded, and ready for shelf.
Custom Packaging Sleeves prints custom packaging sleeves - belly bands, box sleeves, tray sleeves, and more - for brands that need retail-ready packaging without committing to a large minimum order or a full box redesign. Whether you're launching a new product, adding a SKU, or running a seasonal promotion, a sleeve is a fast, lower-cost way to refresh how your product looks on the shelf.

Get a price from the calculator or a firm quote from our team with just your product, size, and quantity. Free dieline templates and basic design support come with every order.
Nothing prints without your approval
Every order gets a digital proof before production. If something's off, we fix it before it's on press, not after it ships.
How We Work
You don't need finished artwork to get a price: our price calculator gives an instant estimate, and our quote form gets you a firm number and turnaround, usually within one business day. Our free dieline generator makes a template for your exact size, and once you order, our team provides basic design support, so you can go from a rough idea to print-ready artwork without hiring a designer.
Materials and Sustainability
Every style is available in kraft, SBS/C1S, or recycled board, so the choice comes down to look and budget rather than what's technically possible. Box-style sleeves can also be made in corrugated board for heavier products. Kraft and recycled board both work well for brands that want an eco-friendly or recycled-content story behind the packaging itself, not just the marketing copy on it. See our materials page for the full comparison.
Why Brands Choose Sleeves
Cost-Effective
Uses less material than a full box, so per-unit cost stays lower.
Easy to Assemble
Slides or folds into shape in seconds, no special tools needed.
Durable Protection
Sturdy paperboard protects the product through handling and shipping.
Space-Saving
Ships flat, so it takes up less room in storage and fulfillment.
