What are Custom Cardboard Boxes?
Custom cardboard boxes are manufactured according to the exact specifications of the client: length, width, height, flute type, cardboard quality, closure type, and finish. Unlike standard boxes, they adapt perfectly to the product, which reduces excess material, improves protection, and optimizes shipping costs.
Types of Custom Boxes
- Custom die-cut boxes: assembled without staples or tape. Ideal for e-commerce, cosmetics, and gifts. Clean and professional finish.
- Flap boxes (FEFCO 0201): the classic industrial format. Available in any size and flute. The most economical for large volumes.
- Printed boxes: add your logo, brand, or instructions directly onto the cardboard. Flexography for large runs or digital printing for smaller orders.
- Boxes with special die-cut: for products with irregular shapes, bottles, food, or point-of-sale displays.
Advantages of Custom Boxes
- Perfect fit for the product: less void fill, less empty space, more protection.
- Shipping savings: more fitted boxes = lower volumetric weight = lower shipping cost.
- Brand image: a custom box with your logo conveys professionalism and reinforces your branding.
- Sustainability: less void fill material and less excess cardboard = lower environmental impact.
- Versatility: any size, any flute, any finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum order for custom boxes?
It depends on the type of box. For die-cut boxes, the minimum is usually 200-500 units. For standard flap boxes in special sizes, from 100 units. Consult us for your specific case.
How long does manufacturing take?
The usual lead time is 2 to 4 weeks from order confirmation. For urgent orders or sizes similar to standard, we can shorten lead times. We will confirm this with the quote.
Can I add my logo or printing?
Yes, we offer flexographic printing (for large runs, starting from 500-1,000 units) and digital printing (for smaller runs). You can print logos, text, barcodes, or a complete design.
Do you send samples before confirming the order?
Yes, for significant orders, we can produce a preliminary sample for your approval. The cost of the sample is usually deducted from the final order. Ask us when requesting a quote.
What do I need to request a quote?
The basics: interior dimensions (length x width x height), approximate quantity, and a brief description of the product that will go inside. If you want printing, send us your logo in vector format (AI, PDF, or EPS). With this information, we will prepare a quote within 24-48 hours.

If you are looking for standard cardboard boxes with 24-48h delivery, we have them ready in our warehouse in Seville. But if your product requires specific measurements, keep reading.
What are custom cardboard boxes?
They are boxes manufactured with the exact dimensions you specify — length, width, and height to the millimeter. It's not the same to pack a 120×80 cm painting as an industrial part measuring 45×22×18 cm. With the correct measurements, you reduce excess material, save on void fill, and your shipments arrive in better condition.
The difference with a standard box is clear: instead of adapting the product to the box, you adapt the box to the product. Less internal movement, less breakage, fewer claims.
Furthermore, custom boxes can carry your logo, corporate colors, or handling instructions printed directly on the cardboard. Custom packaging is not just aesthetics — it's brand identity with every shipment.
Types of custom boxes we manufacture
Die-cut boxes
Manufactured with a specific die (cutting mold) for your product. They are the most precise and offer the best presentation. Ideal for custom packaging for e-commerce, cosmetics, food, or corporate gifts. Die-cutting allows for flaps, windows, self-assembling closures, and shapes that a standard box cannot offer.
Usual minimum order: 200-300 units (depending on size). The cost of the die is amortized from the first order.
Custom flap boxes
The classic four-flap format (FEFCO 0201), but with the dimensions you need. It is the most economical option for custom packaging because it does not require a die — it is cut and folded directly. Perfect for logistical shipments, industrial storage, and palletization.
If you need standard flap boxes with immediate delivery, see our flap boxes catalog.
Boxes with printed logo
Any box — die-cut or flap — can be printed. From a single-color logo to full-color printing. Boxes with logos transform every shipment into a touchpoint with your customer. An anonymous brown box is forgotten; one with your brand is remembered.
Printing options: flexography (1-3 colors, economical for large runs), offset (high quality, four-color), or digital printing (short runs from 50 units).
Custom kraft boxes
Natural unbleached kraft cardboard, with a finish that conveys sustainability and approachability. Custom kraft boxes are a trend in e-commerce, especially for organic food brands, natural cosmetics, and sustainable fashion. They can be printed with water-based inks to maintain the eco-friendly message.

Advantages of using custom boxes for your business
Reduce shipping costs. A box fitted to the product weighs less and occupies less volume. For agency shipments, this directly translates into savings. One of our ceramic industry clients reduced their transport costs by 18% simply by adjusting box measurements.
Fewer breakages and returns. When the product is snug in the box, it doesn't move around. Less movement = fewer bumps = fewer claims. Especially important for fragile products such as electronics, glassware, or food.
Professional image. A well-presented package builds trust. And if it also has your logo, each delivery reinforces your brand. 40% of online consumers say packaging influences their perception of the brand (source: Dotcom Distribution).
Warehouse optimization. Identical boxes stack better. If you handle few product formats, having standardized custom boxes improves warehouse organization and speeds up picking.
What is the manufacturing process like?
Ordering custom boxes from TeleCajas is simpler than it seems. The entire process, from your first inquiry to having the boxes in your warehouse, usually takes between 10 and 15 business days.
Step 1 — You tell us what you need. Interior dimensions (length × width × height in cm), cardboard type (single, double, or triple wall), quantity, and whether you want printing. If you are unsure what type of cardboard you need, we will advise you based on the weight and fragility of your product.
Step 2 — We send you a quote within 24 hours. No obligation. The price includes manufacturing and shipping to your address in Spain or Portugal. Quotes are valid for 30 days.
Step 3 — Approval and manufacturing. Once you confirm, we start production. If they include printing, we send you a digital color proof for your approval before printing.
Step 4 — Delivery to your door. We ship via transport agency to any point in Spain and Portugal. Shipping in palletized boxes for large orders.

For which sectors do we manufacture custom boxes?
We work with companies from a wide variety of sectors. 80% of our custom box orders are B2B:
E-commerce and online stores — shipping boxes with product-adjusted measurements, with or without a logo. They reduce transport costs and improve the unboxing experience.
Industry and manufacturing — boxes for industrial parts, machinery, electronic components. Double or triple wall for maximum resistance.
Food and hospitality — packaging for pastries, wines, oil, preserves. With food certification when necessary.
Removals and storage — if you need specific formats, we manufacture them. For standard moving boxes with immediate shipping, visit our moving boxes section.
Art and antiques — flat boxes for paintings, telescopic boxes for delicate objects. Also check out our standard picture boxes.
Frequently asked questions about custom cardboard boxes
What is the minimum order for custom boxes? ▼
It depends on the type. For custom flap boxes, the minimum is usually 50-100 units. For die-cut boxes, it is between 200 and 300 units because the die has to be manufactured. For digital printing, we can do runs from 50 boxes with logos.
How long does manufacturing take? ▼
The standard lead time is 10-15 working days from order confirmation. If they include printing, an additional 2-3 days may be added for color proofing. For urgent orders, please consult us directly.
Can I order custom boxes with a logo for small quantities? ▼
Yes. With digital printing, we can print your logo from 50 units. For larger runs of 500 or more, flexography is more economical per unit.
What information do you need to prepare a quote? ▼
The interior dimensions of the box (length × width × height in cm), the type of cardboard (or the weight of the product that goes inside, and we will recommend it), the quantity, and whether you want printing. With this information, we can provide you with a price within 24 hours.
Do you ship to Portugal? ▼
Yes, we do. We manufacture and ship to all of Spain and Portugal. For Portugal, you can also check our store at telecaixa.com.
What is the difference between custom packaging and made-to-measure packaging? ▼
Made-to-measure packaging refers to manufacturing boxes with the exact dimensions you need. Custom packaging goes a step further: it includes logo printing, corporate colors, or graphic design on the box. At TeleCajas, we offer both services, together or separately.
Are die-cut boxes more expensive than regular slotted boxes? ▼
Yes, because they require manufacturing a die (cutting mold). However, the additional cost is quickly recouped: for orders of 300-500 units or more, the per-box difference is minimal. And the result — in terms of presentation and functionality — usually pays off handsomely.
