Custom Serum Boxes

How do I measure a serum bottle for a custom box?

Measure the full assembled bottle, including the base, widest point, shoulder, cap, dropper bulb, pump, or protective overcap. Allow enough clearance for easy packing without putting pressure on the closure, then confirm the final fit with a production sample.

Does a glass serum bottle need an insert or extra support?

It depends on the bottle profile and carton fit. An insert or other support can help control movement and keep fragile glass from striking the carton walls, especially when the bottle is narrow, heavy, or has a tall closure.

How much clearance does a dropper, pump, or airless bottle need?

Plan the carton around the bottle’s complete closed profile, not the bottle body alone. Droppers, pumps, collars, and overcaps need enough top and side clearance to avoid pressing into tuck panels or creating panel strain.

Does the serum box protect the formula from light or oxidation?

The carton can reduce light exposure while the product is boxed, but formula protection primarily depends on the primary packaging. Air exposure, leakage, material compatibility, and dispensing performance should be addressed through the bottle, closure, pump, or dropper selected for the formula.

What information should I print on a custom serum box?

Plan the carton for product identity, net contents, ingredients, directions, warnings, responsible-party information, barcode, and other required or approved product information. Keep formula names, concentrations, and key product cues easy to distinguish across the range.

Can I start with a small run and test a sample first?

Yes. Custom serum boxes start from 100 units per specification, and you can order a production sample before a larger run. Use the sample to check bottle fit, closure clearance, board feel, print, and finished presentation.
