A custom gift box is a rigid, telescoping lid-and-base packaging solution that lifts straight off rather than hinging open, giving skincare and beauty brands a clean, formal presentation for bottles, jars, and multi-piece sets. This one is built for skincare gifting specifically, with a soft pink raffia grass filling that cushions glass or plastic containers while adding a textured, gift-ready look inside the custom gift box.

It is produced by Topvisio Packaging, a rigid box manufacturer running 14+ automated production lines. Two-piece lid-and-base structures like this custom gift box run through production at approximately 1,500,000 units per month, one of the higher-volume categories the factory handles. FSC certification is available on request, alongside PPWR compliance, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and SEDEX audit standing, so the custom gift box fits both EU packaging-waste rules and general export documentation requirements.

Topvisio Packaging manufactures this product at its factory in Dongguan, Guangdong, China.

Custom Gift Box in Two Telescoping Sizes

This custom gift box is offered in two sizes built on the same telescoping lid-and-base design. The large size measures 300 x 200 x 80 mm and weighs 367 g complete, sized for multi-piece skincare sets or larger jars.

The small size measures 165 x 165 x 55 mm and weighs 169 g, sized for single bottles or compact gift sets. Both sizes share the same material build and assembly method, so switching between them does not change how the custom gift box is produced or finished. Buyers ordering both sizes for the same product line can run them as a single configuration with shared artwork and material specifications, which simplifies quoting and production scheduling compared with treating them as two unrelated SKUs.

Materials: Double-Coated Paper Over Greyboard

Both the lid and base use 157 gsm double-coated art paper laminated over 1200 gsm single-sided white greyboard. The double-coated paper takes print color evenly across both sides of the sheet before lamination, which keeps the printed surface consistent whether the artwork covers the full panel or sits as a smaller graphic on a white background.

A scratch-resistant matte lamination finishes the exterior of both pieces on both sizes, protecting the printed surface from fingerprints and handling marks during retail display or repeated gift-giving use.

Pink Raffia Interior

Inside the custom gift box, pink raffia grass fills the base around the product, providing cushioning for glass or plastic skincare containers while adding a soft, textured presentation the moment the lid is lifted. The raffia is packed by hand after the custom gift box is formed, since machine filling cannot control the even, gift-ready distribution this finish depends on.

The raffia color is matched to the pink tone of the exterior print, giving the interior and exterior a coordinated look rather than a plain cardboard interior showing once the lid comes off.

Cost-Saving Options

Two adjustments to this structure lower unit cost with a manageable trade-off. The 157 gsm double-coated paper can drop to 128 gsm across both sizes, though the price difference is modest since paper is a smaller share of total material cost.

The raffia fill quantity can also be reduced, which lowers material use but reduces the cushioning effect around the product, so this option is better suited to lighter or more stable containers than to fragile glass packaging. The 1200 gsm greyboard can also drop to 1000 gsm across both sizes, which reduces structural rigidity — noticeably more on the large 300 x 200 x 80 mm size than on the small size, since the larger panel spans a wider unsupported area and is more prone to flexing or bowing when stacked.

Two other options were reviewed and set aside. Removing or thinning the matte lamination was not adopted, since the surface would lose its scratch resistance and pick up fingerprints more easily. Switching to undyed natural raffia was also set aside, since the visual difference against the pink exterior print was judged not worth the modest saving.

Customization Options

Print artwork on both the lid and base can be updated per order, and the raffia color can be matched to a different exterior palette if pink is not the brand's primary tone. Dimensions beyond the two standard sizes can also be developed for a different bottle count or jar diameter, using the same telescoping lid-and-base method and material build described above.

For brands running seasonal or limited editions, the raffia fill and print artwork can be changed independently of each other, so a core structure can support several visual variations without a full retool.

Common Applications

This structure suits skincare gift sets, single-bottle premium packaging, and retail-ready gifting programs where a formal lift-off lid reads as more considered than a hinged or magnetic box. The two-size range covers both compact single-product gifting and larger multi-piece sets without changing the underlying material or finish.

Buyers looking for a hinged or magnetic alternative may want to look at Topvisio's magnetic closure gift boxes line, or the wider custom cosmetic boxes range for other skincare-specific structures.

Why the Telescoping Lid Suits Skincare Gifting

A lid that lifts straight off reads differently than a hinged or magnetic box the moment a customer picks it up — there is no catch to release, no lid attached at one edge, just a clean separation between the two halves. For skincare gifting, where the unboxing moment is often part of the brand experience, that simplicity tends to feel more considered than a mechanism doing the work for the customer.

The trade-off is that a telescoping lid is fully removable rather than staying attached, so it can be set down separately during unboxing. For most gifting contexts this is not a practical issue, though brands packing the custom gift box for shipment with the product already inside may want to specify a slightly closer lid-to-base fit to reduce shifting in transit.

Manufacturing and Certifications

Topvisio Packaging operates 14+ automated production lines, and two-piece lid-and-base structures like this custom gift box are one of the higher-volume categories the factory runs, at approximately 1,500,000 units per month across both sizes combined. FSC-certified material is available on request, and the factory maintains PPWR compliance together with ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and SEDEX status.

These details matter for skincare brands sourcing packaging for the EU or working with retail partners that run supplier audits. For background on what FSC chain-of-custody certification covers, see the FSC International reference site.

Packaging and Shipping

Because raffia is packed by hand after the custom gift box is formed, export cartons are packed to keep the filling settled and even rather than shifted to one side during transit. Carton counts differ between the two sizes given the size difference between them, and are confirmed once final print artwork and any material adjustments are locked in.

For brands ordering both sizes together, Topvisio can coordinate packing lists and shipment documentation across the two SKUs so a combined order arrives on a single, consistent schedule.

Order Process and Lead Times

A typical order starts with design confirmation for the lid and base artwork on whichever size or sizes are needed, followed by a physical sample delivered within 7 business days. Once the sample is approved, bulk production runs 30 to 45 business days depending on order volume and any adjustments to paper or board weight. Minimum order quantity is 1,000 units per size.

Buyers ordering both the large and small sizes together are encouraged to confirm raffia color matching across both samples before production, since minor dye-lot variation between batches is more noticeable when the two sizes sit side by side in a retail display.

Buyers finalizing artwork are welcome to request both size samples side by side before committing to full production, which makes it easier to confirm proportion, raffia color match, and print consistency across the large and small versions at once rather than relying on renders alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

What sizes does this custom gift box come in?

Two sizes are available on the same structure: a large size at 300 x 200 x 80 mm (367 g) and a small size at 165 x 165 x 55 mm (169 g). Both can be ordered under the same configuration.

What is the '157g double-tube' paper mentioned in the spec?

That refers to 157 gsm double-coated art paper, sometimes shortened informally to 'double-coated' or 'double-tube' paper in Chinese sourcing documentation. It is laminated over the greyboard core on both the lid and base.

Is this custom gift box FSC certified?

FSC-certified paper and greyboard are available on request for this structure. The standard build uses non-FSC material unless FSC sourcing is specified at order time.

How is the pink raffia grass added?

Raffia is packed by hand into the base after the custom gift box is formed, since machine filling cannot control the even, gift-ready distribution this finish depends on.

Can the cost be reduced without changing the raffia lining?

Yes. Dropping the double-coated paper from 157 gsm to 128 gsm, or the greyboard from 1200 gsm to 1000 gsm, both lower cost while keeping the raffia interior unchanged. The greyboard reduction affects the large size more than the small size.

Is this custom gift box PPWR compliant for EU sales?

Yes. Material composition and packaging-weight documentation required under the EU Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR) are available on request, alongside FSC and ISO documentation.

What is the MOQ and lead time?

Minimum order quantity is 1,000 units per size. Sample lead time is 7 business days after design confirmation, and bulk production takes 30 to 45 business days after sample approval.

What is the production capacity for this custom gift box style?

This two-piece lid-and-base structure runs across Topvisio Packaging's 14+ automated lines at approximately 1,500,000 units per month, alongside PPWR, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and SEDEX compliance.
