Product Information
Full details
This guide is for individuals and businesses needing to safely ship or gift standard-sized mugs. The key benefit is secure, stylish packaging that reduces breakage and enhances presentation. A potential caveat is that these are single-wall boxes, and double-wall variants are recommended for extra fragile items or rough transit. These boxes are constructed from strong, multi-layered corrugated cardboard with triple-thickness sides, offering excellent protection. They are also designed to be visually appealing for gift-giving and are fully recyclable, manufactured in the UK.

FAQs
What are the exact internal dimensions of the box?
The approximate internal dimensions are 100mm x 100mm x 100mm.
Can I use these boxes for items other than mugs?
Yes, they are suitable for any small items that fit within the internal dimensions, such as candles, soaps, or small electronics, especially if they require a presentable box.
Are these boxes suitable for international shipping?
While they are strong single-wall boxes, for international shipping or areas known for rough handling, consider using double-wall variants or adding extra outer protection.
How many boxes are included in this pack?
This listing is for a pack of 100 boxes.
Are the boxes waterproof?
No, the boxes are made of cardboard and are not waterproof. They should be kept dry during storage and transit. For wet conditions, external waterproof packaging is necessary.
Can I print custom designs on these boxes?
While these boxes come in white, they are suitable for custom printing or applying labels if you wish to add branding or specific designs.
Are these boxes recyclable?
Yes, these boxes are made from corrugated cardboard and are fully recyclable.
Troubleshooting
Box is difficult to assemble.
Ensure all creases are fully pressed. If creases are stiff, gently bend them back and forth a few times before folding.
Mug does not fit securely inside.
This box is designed for standard mugs. For smaller items or to prevent excessive movement, consider adding protective void fill such as tissue paper or bubble wrap.
Box arrived damaged.
As these are shipped flat, check for damage to the outer packaging. If individual boxes are damaged upon arrival, contact customer support with details and photos.
Box feels flimsy after assembly.
Ensure all flaps are correctly tucked and secured. For shipping, consider using a small amount of packing tape along the seams for added rigidity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
These boxes are designed for easy assembly. Simply fold along the pre-creased lines and tuck in the flaps to create a sturdy, self-contained box. No tape or glue is typically required for basic assembly, though additional tape can be used for extra security during shipping.
Compatibility:
These boxes are optimized for standard-sized mugs with approximate dimensions up to 100mm x 100mm x 100mm (internal dimensions). They are suitable for most common mug shapes. For mugs that are unusually large, tall, or have protruding handles, always measure carefully to ensure a fit.
Care:
Store the boxes flat in a dry environment to maintain their structural integrity. Avoid exposure to moisture, as this can weaken the cardboard. Clean the exterior with a dry or slightly damp cloth if necessary; avoid soaking the cardboard.
