A brown kraft cardboard box with a crash lock base

If you are looking for ways to improve the speed and efficiency of your packaging processes, crash lock boxes are a great option.

Crash lock boxes are a type of self-erecting cardboard packaging. Supplied flat, by pulling the corners of the box apart, the crash lock base interlocks without the need for tape or glue. Crash lock boxes provide one of the fastest and easiest methods for manual assembly of packaging.

At GWP, we have specialist manufacturing and printing equipment to produce custom crash lock boxes to your exact specification. And our packaging experts can also offer advice on other ways to improve the speed and efficiency of your packaging processes.

Benefits of crash lock boxes

Ideal for eCommerce and transit packaging applications, crash lock boxes can play a significant part in reducing fulfilment times and labour costs. But by sourcing your crash lock cartons from us, you can expect to see a number of additional benefits, including:

The cardboard box locking mechanism allows packing staff to manually assemble more boxes in a shorter time period, improving efficiency and reducing costs.

The easy “pop up” assembly of these packs also help to reduce the risk of repetitive strain injuries (RSI) to your employees.

Custom crash lock box sizes help to prevent transit damage by preventing product movement within the pack, and reduce the amount of secondary void fill packaging required.

The crash lock base minimises the need for tape, reducing your costs and use of plastics.

Careful material selection (single or double wall) ensures your crash lock boxes are sturdy, robust, and can withstand the challenges posed by your supply chain.

Bespoke sizing also reduces transport costs and CO2 emissions during transit by being more space efficient.

Crash lock boxes are supplied pre-creased, glued and flat, to reduce both delivery costs and your storage requirements.

Printed crash lock boxes allow you to add branding, handling instructions, safety information and other design or graphics.

All crash lock boxes you source from us are FSC certified as standard, and are fully recyclable.
