The Unique Structure of The Telescoping Box (Framed Lid and Base Box)
The global perfume industry is a vibrant arena, with Europe and the United States having a huge perfume market. The corresponding perfume packaging boxes are also very popular in various countries. Among many perfume packaging and, there is a very classic and exquisite packaging, which is the framed base and lid box. And you must be very curious about how such exquisite things are made, today we will find out. A framed lid and base box, also known as a "shoulder and neck rigid box," features a three-piece construction:
Base: The bottom box that holds the product.
Neck (or Inner Tray): A raised part attached to the base that extends upward, often visible or partially covered when closed.
Lid (Top Cover): The cover that fits over the base, usually stopping at the “shoulder” for a flush, refined finish.
Differences Compared to Standard Lid and Base Boxes
Visual Layering: The framed style provides an additional visual step (the shoulder), which creates a more premium and structured appearance.
Structural Integrity: It offers improved sturdiness and protection due to the three-layered design.
Unboxing Experience: The layered reveal enhances the luxury unboxing feel, ideal for upscale goods like perfumes or jewelry.
Customizable Neck Height: Tailor the visible shoulder part to match branding or aesthetic needs.
The Process that Attributes to its attractive Shape: Cutting Slot
In the packaging industry, V-grooving is a crucial process. The meaning of V-grooving is to cut a V-shaped groove on the cardboard. The cardboard will naturally bend and fold at these grooves, making the packaging box more vivid and three-dimensional, which can significantly enhance the three-dimensional sense of the packaging box. It gives the packaging box unique performance and charm, making it stand out among many packaging forms. This three-dimensional sense not only makes the packaging box more visually attractive but also adds a sense of dignity and uniqueness to the gift.When consumers pick up the packaging box, they can feel its unique texture and shape, which will generate higher expectations and a favorable impression of the gift inside.
The Selected material sets the tone for Modest Elegance
The material is made of coated paper mounted gray board, which is durable and not easy to deform. Coated paper has good strength, toughness and tear resistance, and the surface is very flat, which is suitable for printing design. Hua Keyi uses hot silver embossing, UV and other processes for the logo, which is simple and generous, and at the same time highlights the brand.
Well Designed Internal Lining Ensures a Safe and Sound Unboxing Experience.
Perfumes are mostly packed in fragile glass bottles, so it is particularly important to protect their safety during transportation. For this reason, we specially customize flocked EVA linings with excellent cushioning and protection properties for perfume bottles. They can be fixed in the lining and enhance the appearance. Since EVA is easily deformed under pressure, it is usually designed to be 2-3mm smaller than the inner diameter to avoid deformation, or reduce the thickness of the lining.
