Custom Magnetic Closure Rigid Boxes

The Difference Between a Rigid Box and Everything Else

Step into any upscale retail setting – a jewelry store, a cosmetics shop, or a flagship fashion boutique – and you will notice something. The packaging is always stiff. Always big.  Magnetic, always.

This is not a coincidence. It’s an intentionally brand decision based on one simple truth: how a product is presented influences how a customer values it. A product in an affordable fold-up packaging feels like a commodity. Same with unique magnetic closing rigid packaging – it feels like a thoughtful, premium purchase.

Our custom rigid boxes are built from high-density chipboard that holds its shape permanently. They do not crease under pressure, collapse in transit, or lose their structure after a single use. They are built to last — and they carry your brand into your customer’s home and keep it there.

Who Orders Custom Magnetic Closure Rigid Boxes

Our wholesale custom magnetic closure rigid boxes are served to a variety of businesses. What they all have in common is the commitment to provide their items in packages that match their quality.

Jewelry Brands

Our magnetic closure rigid boxes are used by independent jewelers and established jewelry shops to package rings, necklaces, bracelets, earrings and whole gift sets. The strong structure protects fragile objects in shipment and the magnetic closing offers that kind of opening experience that customers remember and share.

Cosmetics and Skincare Companies

Our custom printed magnetic closure rigid boxes are used by beauty brands for skincare gift sets, makeup collections, serum launches and influencer PR boxes. The unwrapping experience is a vital element of the beauty brand story – and our robust boxes provide it wonderfully.

Candle and Home Fragrance Brands

Our magnetic closure rigid boxes are used by luxury candle makers for single jar candles, pillar candles, tealight gift sets and reed diffuser collections. The chipboard walls are thick enough that glass containers are protected in transit, while the high-end outside finish reflects the excellence of the fragrance brand.

Corporate Gifting and Onboarding

The wholesale custom magnetic closure rigid boxes are purchased by HR teams, marketing agencies and corporate gifting companies for employee onboarding kits, executive gift sets, client appreciation packages and event gifting programs. A magnetic rigid box creates a cohesive and memorable gifting experience for a set of branded items.

Fashion and Apparel Brands

Wide format magnetic closure rigid boxes are used by clothing firms to package shirts, scarves, ties, and accessories. The hard structure prevents the garments from being crushed in transit and the premium appearance adds to the perceived worth of the purchase.

E-Commerce and Subscription Brands

Online brands and subscription box companies use our custom magnetic closure rigid boxes for premium tier products and gifting options — creating an unboxing experience that generates organic social media content and drives repeat purchases.

Sizes

Every custom magnetic closure rigid box we produce is manufactured to your exact product dimensions. We do not work from a catalogue of standard sizes — we engineer each box around the specific measurements of your product, with the correct interior clearance for your chosen insert and a precisely calibrated lid depth that delivers a snug, premium-feeling closure.

Size Guide by Product Type:

Product Category	Typical Length	Typical Width	Typical Depth
Ring box	3″ – 4″	3″ – 4″	2″ – 2.5″
Earring box	4″ – 5″	4″ – 5″	1.5″ – 2″
Necklace box	6″ – 9″	4″ – 6″	2″ – 2.5″
Bracelet box	6″ – 8″	4″ – 5″	2″ – 2.5″

Corporate gift box	10″ – 14″	8″ – 10″	4″ – 5″
Large hamper box	14″ – 18″	10″ – 14″	5″ – 6″

These are indicative ranges based on the most common orders we fulfill. If your product falls outside these dimensions — larger, smaller, or an unusual shape — our packaging engineers will design a custom solution around your exact requirements.

Materials

The materials are the base for the excellence of our bespoke magnetic closure rigid boxes. We chose each structural and decorative material we employ for the contribution it makes to the overall quality, feel and look of the finished box.

Structural Board

Standard Greyboard Chipboard

The backbone of any rigid box. We use top quality greyboard in four standard thicknesses:

• 1200gsm – a lightweight thickness, suitable for small boxes of approx. 5” x 5”
• 1500gsm – our most popular thickness, suitable for most standard gift box sizes
• 1800gsm – for bigger boxes and brands wanting an especially substantial feel
• 2000gsm – maximum rigidity for giant boxes, heavy products and ultra-premium presentations

The chipboard thickness directly affects how the finished box feels in hand. A heavier board creates a more substantial, weighty box — and that weight is one of the most powerful subconscious signals of product quality.

Recycled Greyboard

For firms with a sustainability agenda, we can offer recycled greyboard, made from post-consumer waste. It has the same structural performance as virgin board and is available in all four thickness classes.

Exterior Wrap Materials

The chipboard core of every custom printed magnetic closure rigid box is hand-wrapped in your choice of decorative exterior material:

Smooth Coated Art Paper

The most extensively used outside wrap for full-color printed magnetic closure boxes.  Smooth coated paper receives ink with outstanding clarity and detail – making it the ideal surface for photographic imagery, intricate graphics, and precise brand color reproduction.

Uncoated Matte Paper

A natural, slightly textured paper surface with an organic, understated quality. Popular with artisan brands, natural product companies, and businesses positioning around authenticity and craft.

Linen Texture Paper

An embossed paper with a fine woven texture that references fine fabric. The tactile quality of linen paper communicates sophistication and craftsmanship — popular for corporate gifting, luxury fashion, and premium stationery brands.

Kraft Paper

Unbleached natural brown paper with an honest, earthy quality. Kraft wrap is the most popular exterior choice for eco-conscious brands and sustainable product companies. It accepts printing well and pairs beautifully with blind embossing and simple typography.

Pearlescent Paper

A paper with a subtle built-in shimmer that shifts quality in different lighting conditions. Popular for jewelry, beauty, wedding products, and any brand that wants a premium finish without heavy print or foil.

Leatherette Material

A high-quality synthetic leather wrap that delivers a genuinely premium tactile experience. Leatherette-wrapped magnetic closure boxes are popular for watches, high-end corporate gifts, executive accessories, and luxury spirits packaging.

Fabric Wrap

For the most premium tier of presentation, we offer exterior wrapping in genuine fabric — linen, cotton, or velvet. Fabric-wrapped rigid boxes are genuinely distinctive and communicate a level of craft and attention to detail that no paper surface can replicate.

Magnet Specification

We use neodymium rare-earth magnets embedded flush into the chipboard of both the lid and base panels. Neodymium magnets are the strongest permanent magnet material commercially available — they provide a firm, reliable closure that does not weaken over time with repeated opening and closing.

Our standard configurations:

• 2 magnets — for boxes up to approximately 8″ x 6″
• 4 magnets — for boxes up to approximately 14″ x 10″
• 6 magnets — for large format boxes above 14″ x 10″

Printing

Our custom printed magnetic closure rigid boxes are produced using professional printing processes that deliver consistent, sharp, and accurate results across every production run — from 100 units to 100,000 units.

Printing Methods

Digital Printing

Digital printing transfers your artwork directly onto the exterior wrap paper using high-resolution inkjet or laser technology. It is the ideal method for short production runs, complex photographic artwork, and designs that require fast turnaround. There are no plate costs associated with digital printing — making it the most cost-effective option for smaller orders.

Offset Lithographic Printing

Offset printing is the industry standard for premium, high-volume production. Ink is transferred from a printing plate to a rubber blanket and then to the paper surface — delivering an exceptionally sharp, consistent print quality that maintains accuracy from the first sheet to the last. For brands ordering large volumes of wholesale custom magnetic closure rigid boxes, offset printing delivers the best quality-to-cost ratio at scale.

Screen Printing

Screen printing forces ink through a mesh stencil onto the paper surface — depositing a thicker layer of ink than digital or offset methods. The result is a bold, rich, tactile print finish with strong visual impact. Screen printing is ideal for simple designs with one to four colors and brands seeking a distinctive, craft aesthetic.

Flexographic Printing

A rotary printing method suited to large volume production runs with repeating patterns or simple two-color designs. Flexographic printing is fast, consistent, and cost-effective at high volumes.

Color Systems

CMYK

The standard four-color printing process using Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Key (Black) inks. CMYK printing can reproduce virtually any color and is the standard choice for full-color photographic or illustrative artwork.

PMS Pantone Matching System

Pantone is the global standard for precise color specification and reproduction. Each Pantone color is produced from a specific ink formula — ensuring that your brand color is reproduced with complete accuracy regardless of which press, which facility, or which production run your boxes are printed on. For brands with strict brand guidelines, Pantone matching is essential.

Finishing

Finishing transforms a well-made magnetic closure rigid box into something genuinely extraordinary. The right combination of finishing techniques creates packaging that customers photograph, share, keep, and remember.

Soft-Touch Matte Lamination

Our single most popular finishing option. Soft-touch lamination applies a thin polymer film to the exterior surface that creates a velvety, non-reflective finish with an extraordinary tactile quality. Customers who pick up a soft-touch box instinctively stroke the surface — and that physical engagement with your packaging creates a deeper brand impression.

Gloss Lamination

High-shine lamination that makes colors vivid, saturated, and eye-catching. Gloss lamination is popular for bold, colorful designs where visual impact is the primary goal.

Matte Lamination

A flat, non-reflective surface finish without the velvety texture of soft-touch. Matte lamination has a clean, understated quality that works well with minimalist brand aesthetics.

Gold Foil Stamping

A metallic gold foil applied to specific areas of the box surface using heat and pressure. Gold foil is the defining luxury packaging finish — used on brand logos, product names, decorative borders, and pattern elements. It catches light beautifully and creates an immediate impression of premium quality.

Silver Foil Stamping

The contemporary alternative to gold. Silver foil is popular with tech, beauty, wellness, and fashion brands seeking a modern, clean luxury aesthetic.

Rose Gold Foil

A warm pink-gold metallic finish that has become one of the most widely used foil colors in jewelry, beauty, and lifestyle packaging over recent years.

Holographic Foil

A shifting, iridescent foil that changes color depending on the viewing angle. Popular for limited edition releases, seasonal packaging, and brands targeting younger demographics.

Spot UV

A clear high-gloss coating applied selectively — typically over a logo or brand name on a matte laminated surface. The contrast between the flat matte background and the glossy spot UV element is one of the most visually striking effects available in packaging finishing.

Embossing

A raised three-dimensional effect created by pressing your logo or design upward from the surface of the box. Embossing adds a tactile dimension to your branding — customers feel the logo as well as seeing it.

Debossing

The inverse of embossing — your logo or design is pressed into the surface creating a recessed effect. Debossing on a soft-touch matte surface is one of the most refined and elegant finishing combinations in luxury packaging.

Pearlescent Coating

A full-surface iridescent coating that gives the exterior of the box a subtle shimmer in varying light conditions. Popular for beauty, bridal, and jewelry packaging.

Interior Options

Foam Inserts

Available in EVA foam, polyurethane foam and PE foam Full range of colors including black, white, grey, navy, and custom Pantone colors.

Velvet Lining

Premium velvet fabric applied to the interior walls, base, and lid of the box. Available in any color — the most popular choices being black, ivory, blush pink, navy, and emerald.

Satin Lining

Lining: Satin Fabric Smooth, Light Catching. Popular for jewelry gift sets, cosmetics and premium gifting uses.

Suede Lining

A soft matte fabric with a modern luxury feel — popular for contemporary jewelry and executive gifting.

Cardboard Divider Inserts

Custom-cut cardboard dividers creating individual product compartments within the box. Available plain or wrapped in decorative paper or fabric.

Paper Pulp Inserts

Eco-friendly molded inserts made from recycled paper pulp. A sustainable alternative to foam that provides reliable product protection with a natural aesthetic.

Ribbon Pull Tab

A satin or grosgrain ribbon tab that allows the product or insert tray to be lifted smoothly from the box — a small detail that makes a significant impression.

Printed Interior

Full color printing applied to the interior base, lid, or both. Popular for brand story, care instructions, personal messages, or decorative pattern.
