Custom subscription boxes
If you run a subscription service, your subscription box packaging is crucial to delighting (and retaining) your customers.
Custom subscription boxes help you fulfil recurring weekly, monthly, or quarterly subscription orders quickly and efficiently. Like eCommerce packaging, subscription boxes protect contents during shipping and provide an appealing unboxing experience. This type of packaging is particularly common for meal kits, cosmetics, books, flowers, and even clothing.
At GWP, we have a team of expert designers who can bring your subscription box packaging ideas to life. In fact, GWP only supplies packaging that is fully tailored to your specific requirements. This means your subscription packaging will be the optimum strength, size, and style and feature the most suitable print as well.

FAQs
What is subscription box packaging?
Subscription box packaging is the physical box used to deliver products to customers as part of a recurring subscription. It is used for products such as food, drinks, books, flowers, pet products, clothing, and more.
Should I print my business’s subscription boxes?
Printing subscription boxes provides several benefits. It allows your branding to be visible throughout the delivery network (effectively free advertising) and can also create a memorable unboxing experience for your customers. You can also use print to include handling and recycling instructions.
What material does subscription box packaging use?
Subscription boxes are manufactured using corrugated cardboard. The specific grade is chosen based on the weight of the contents and the likely handling and environmental conditions the pack could encounter when in transit.
Are cardboard subscription boxes suitable for food?
Cardboard subscription boxes are a popular option for food subscriptions and meal delivery kits. Some form of thermal or insulating liner is usually necessary. Boxes of this type are also known as chilled packaging.
Is subscription box packaging easy to recycle?
Cardboard subscription boxes are easy for your customers to recycle; they can simply place them in UK kerbside collections. You can also opt for recycled and FSC-certified materials, further improving sustainability.
