Plain Packaging Sample
A plain packaging sample is a blank, unprinted version of your rigid packaging, ideal for testing its size and structure to ensure it fits your product.

Plain Sample Kit Includes
Every plain sample is provided with the structural basics needed for evaluation:
Included
Custom size
Custom material
Not Included
Print
Finishes (e.g. matte, glossy)
Add-ons (e.g. embossing, debossing, spot UV, foil stamping)
Process & Time
The process is straightforward and faster than printed samples since no artwork is involved. After confirming specifications, the sample is produced and shipped.
Step | Description | Time Estimate |
Specification Approval | Finalize size, style, material | 1–2 days |
Sample Production | Cutting & assembly | 2–4 days |
Shipping | Depends on location | 3–7 days |
Turnaround Time (TAT)
Production and shipping together usually take 12–14 days.
Rush Orders
Rush orders can be completed in 5–7 days, but they cost more.
Cost
Plain sample pricing starts at $100 for rigid boxes such as magnetic closure boxes, rigid drawer boxes, and two piece boxes. The cost of a plain sample may vary depending on box size, structural complexity, and material.
Reimbursement Policy
Sample costs are usually adjustable against bulk orders of 500 units or more, depending on the custom box size. If multiple samples for one item qualify for reimbursement, only the most expensive sample will be reimbursed.
Design Revisions
Before ordering a Plain Sample, carefully review all sample specifications and details. Any changes to the scope or artwork after the sample has already been made will result in additional charges.
Types of Changes
Revision (no extra fee)
These are small adjustments made when the original sample needs minor correction, such as:
The box lid is too tight and difficult to open
The box does not close properly
For inserts, the product fits too tightly or too loosely
Redesign (additional sample fee applies)
These are major changes that require a new sample, such as:
Changing the packaging type
Changing the size
Changing the material
