What are FEFCO 0427 boxes?

A FEFCO 0427 box (and its close relative, the 0426 box) is arguably the most popular form of die-cut packaging. Sometimes referred to as a pizza-style box, FEFCO 0427s can be assembled and closed without the need for tapes, thanks to their hinged lid design. There is a wide range of other die-cut layouts in the FEFCO styles catalogue too.

Are 0427 boxes easy to assemble?

Being easy to assemble and pack, 0427 boxes can help to improve packing and fulfilment times. Features such as hinged lids and self-sealing closures further enhance productivity.

Are 0427 boxes suitable for industrial transit packaging?

It is possible to design 0427 boxes so that they can provide excellent levels of transit protection, particularly when combined with additional inserts manufactured from corrugated or foam materials. This versatility makes 0427 boxes equally suited to industrial packaging applications as they are to eCommerce.

Can 0427 boxes feature printing?

It is possible to print FEFCO 0427 style boxes in several ways, typically during the actual manufacturing process (i.e., the box will be cut and printed in one pass through the manufacturing equipment). This allows for simple one- or two-colour printing using flexographic methods, all the way through to full colour, photographic imagery printed using litho-laminated or digital techniques.

Do I need to pay for a cutting tool for custom 0427 boxes?

Typically, there is a charge for a cutting tool if you are looking to use bespoke 0427 packaging at your business. However, the cost savings of using custom-sized boxes, including reduced void fill, minimised shipping costs, and less damage, means that any cost is usually offset very quickly.
