Common questions

Before you request a sample.

Can window boxes be made with kraft paper?

Yes. Kraft window boxes are common for handmade soap, bakery products and natural retail brands.

Does a window add cost?

Yes. Window cutting and film patching add steps, so the quote should compare a window version and a plain version.

Share the box or bag style, size, quantity and destination. Artwork is helpful, but not required for the first estimate. If your project has recycled paper, FSC paper, plastic-free packaging or supplier code requirements, send them before sampling.
