A medicine carton is the outer package of a medicine. It is also called secondary packaging. It holds the primary package. The primary package is the blister strip, the bottle, or the vial that touches the medicine.
Please note that we do not offer such primary packaging for medicine. What we offer are the secondary carton packaging options for pharmaceutical products to:
- Protect the primary package
- Show the label information
- Hold the patient information leaflet
These pharmaceutical boxes help in:
- Protecting medical formulations
- Presenting the product in a medical store or on retail shelves
- Displaying product details for key information
- Securing products during shipping and storage
- Helps ship medicine while complying with regulatory practices

Why Do Health Companies Choose Custom Pharmaceutical Boxes?
These medicine cartons serve several purposes beyond holding the medicine:
- Keeps light away from the medicine. Some medicines change when exposed to light.
- Gives space for the label. A small bottle or blister strip has too little space.
- Holds the leaflet in the same package as the medicine.
- Can have a tamper-evident seal. A broken seal shows that someone opened the carton.
- Protects the medicine during transport.
Information With Purpose: Making Labeling Easy to Read
The Premier Packaging believes that reading labels is the key right of any patient. To serve that purpose, we empower brands that need medicine boxes to help their customers to read labels with ease. That’s the reason: if there’s any sort of nutraceutical packaging that we happen to make, our priority is product labeling done right on the custom box.
There are a ton of display items to work with on these custom pharmaceutical boxes, and here’s a quick overview for you to make an informed decision.

Aqueous Coating
A clear, water-based coating that dries quickly and protects printed surfaces to improve surface appearance.
UV Coating
A liquid coating that is cured instantly with ultraviolet light to create scuff-resistant matte surface.
Spot UV Coating
A UV coating applied only to selected areas (like logos or text). Used for contrast and visual impact.
Soft Touch Coating
A coating that creates a smooth, velvet like feel to add a premium tactile experience. Can slightly reduce scratch resistance if not laminated.
Varnish
A thin, clear liquid coating applied during printing using the printing press (CMYK process).
Lamination
A plastic film bonded to the printed surface for strong protection against moisture, tearing, and wear.
Anti-Scratch Lamination
A special BOPP film lamination designed to resist scratches and scuffs to prevent fingerprints and surface marks.
Soft Touch / Silk Lamination
A laminated film with a silky, peach-skin texture that feels soft and luxurious in hand.
Offset Printing
It utilizes metal plates and a rubber blanket to transfer ink to paper. It’s ideal for large runs to get sharp detail and color consistency.
Digital Printing
Prints directly from digital files without plates. Ideal for short runs, fast turnaround, and cost-effective small quantities.
UV Printing
Ink is cured instantly using UV light, creating durable prints with gloss or raised effects on coated and specialty surfaces.
Water-based Ink
Made with water and pigments instead of solvents. More eco-friendly than oil inks, commonly used in paper packaging.
Soy / Vegetable Ink
Uses soy or vegetable oils with pigments. Offers vibrant color and lower VOCs, but not fully impact-free.
Oil Based Ink
Petroleum-based ink that delivers rich, durable color. Traditional and effective, but less sustainable and harder to recycle.
Pantone (PMS Colors)
Standardized color system using exact ink formulas to ensure consistent and accurate brand colors across print jobs.
Pantone Metallic
Pantone inks with metallic particles for shiny finishes. Used for premium looks but can reduce recyclability.
SBS C1S
Premium bleached white board, coated on one side for sharp prints. Recyclable; biodegradable if coating is eco-friendly.
SBS C2S
Premium bleached white board, coated on both sides for quality prints inside and out. Coating affects its biodegradability.
CCNB
Duplex board with white front and gray back, mostly recycled. Clay coating may limit biodegradability.
Fully Recycled CCNB
Board from 100% recycled fiber, coated on one side. Recyclable; coating may affect biodegradability.
Natural Brown Kraft
Brown kraft board from virgin and recycled pulp. Strong, eco-friendly, mostly uncoated. Recyclable & biodegradable.
White Kraft
Bleached kraft board from virgin and recycled pulp. Coated or uncoated; recyclable, biodegradable if coating is eco-safe.
Black Kraft
Black-dyed kraft from virgin and recycled pulp. Recyclability depends on dye/coating; less biodegradable than natural kraft.
Uncoated Unbleached Kraft
Natural kraft board, no bleaching or coating. Fully recyclable, fully biodegradable, very sustainable.
Hot Foil Stamping
A printing process where metallic or pigmented foil is transferred onto a surface using heat and pressure to create a shiny, decorative effect.
Cold Foil Printing
Foil is transferred onto a surface without heat using UV-curable adhesives and a printing press. Suitable for high-speed commercial printing and flexible materials.
Blind Embossing
A design is raised on a surface without any foil or color, using a die pressed from the front side of the material. This creates a subtle, tactile effect.
Blind Debossing
A design is pressed inward into the material from the front side, creating an indented effect without foil or ink.
Registered Embossing
Embossing that aligns precisely with another printed element (like a logo or foil). Ensures the raised design matches the printed artwork.
Combination Embossing
Embossing combined with foil stamping in a single pass. Produces a raised design that also has a metallic or colored foil finish.
Window Patching
A die-cut opening on packaging is covered with a thin plastic film. Give customers a chance to see the inside of packaging for visibility purposes.
GSM
Measurement for the density of the paper stock.
PT
Measurement for the thickness of the paper stock.
Flute
Fiberboard arches sandwiched between two linerboards.
