How Our Hinged Flip Lid Boxes Are Built

Our hinged lid gift box, aka hinged lid rigid box, is made from a thick chipboard core wrapped in printed paper. The lid connects to the base through a laminated paper hinge, which lets it open and close cleanly while staying fixed to the box.

  • Rigid core: Greyboard or chipboard, 2mm thick as standard. We offer 14 to 26 pt cardstock thickness for heavier or more protective builds.
  • Printed wrap: A paper or specialty wrap bonded to the core, where all your printing and finishing lives.
  • Reinforced base option: For weightier products, a heavy-duty flip lid box uses a double-wall base that resists crushing under stacking and shipping pressure.
  • Inner lining or insert for hinged flip lid box (optional): Foam, velvet, or paperboard to hold the product in place.

We know that a cardboard box with a hinged lid built on a thin core will bow and dent. A properly specced rigid build holds its shape through transit and repeated opening, which is exactly what your premium product needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Which materials do you use to make these boxes?

A: Often we use thick, hard grey boards. We also use paper that is two millimeters thick for standard boxes, and thicker paper for rigid packaging boxes. So, in short, a hinged flip lid box is made from rigid cardstock for luxury purposes.

Q: Can I add a custom magnetic lock or custom inserts inside these boxes?

A: Yes. We offer custom options to hide magnets inside the lid so it snaps shut. We also make inserts, such as foam, velvet, or paper pieces, cut to hold your item in place. You can also ask for dividers, pull ribbons, or clear windows.

Q: Can I recycle these flip lid boxes?

A: You can recycle the main hard board and paper wrap. Some parts, like plastic coatings, foam pads, ribbons, and magnets, must come off first. If you want a box in this style that can be recycled completely, tell us and we will make one for you.

Q: How much does a custom flip lid box cost?

A: The price varies based on box size, paper thickness, print style, coatings, and the number you buy. Large orders reduce the price per box significantly. Give us your details, and we will provide you with an exact quote.
