Product Description
Our custom folding carton with insert tray is purpose-built for tea and coffee packaging — keeping sachets, loose-leaf pouches, tea bags, coffee capsules, and drip bags neatly organized and protected. The precision die-cut insert tray holds individual items securely in place, preventing movement during shipping while creating an elegant retail presentation. Every carton is printed on our KBA Rapida 105 4-color offset press for rich, food-safe CMYK graphics and finished on the Heidelberg Speedmaster CD 102 7+1 UV line for optional spot UV, foil accents, and protective coatings. Die-cutting on the Bobst Visioncut 106 LER delivers ±0.15mm precision for insert trays that fit perfectly every time, while the Bobst Expertfold 110 A2 folder-gluer ensures fast, reliable assembly at production scale.
Manufactured by Guangdong Bincai Color Printing Co., Ltd. with 23 years of folding carton expertise (founded 2003) across 18,000 sqm (10,000+8,000 smart factory) of production floor in Foshan, Guangdong — daily output of 1.7 million boxes under ISO 9001:2015 and FSC Chain-of-Custody certification. Our dedicated folding carton line produces 280,000+ cartons daily with a 80+ skilled workers operating three-shift production for fast turnaround.
Features
- Custom Insert Tray: Die-cut cardboard tray engineered to your product dimensions — single-level, multi-level, and compartmentalized layouts for tea bags, coffee sachets, capsules, or loose-leaf pouches. Bobst Visioncut 106 LER delivers cavity tolerances of ±0.3mm for premium fit.
- Flat-Shipping Folding Design: Cartons ship flat and assemble quickly with tuck-top, auto-lock bottom, or glue-flap closures — reducing freight volume by up to 70% versus rigid boxes. Bobst Expertfold 110 A2 ensures consistent, high-speed folding and gluing.
- CMYK Offset Printing: KBA Rapida 105 4-color press delivers sharp, food-appealing graphics at up to 200 LPI with consistent color across production runs. Pantone spot color matching available for brand consistency.
- Heidelberg 7+1 UV Finishing: Inline spot UV gloss, matte aqueous coating, or soft-touch lamination applied in a single pass for premium shelf presence with instant UV curing.
- Bobst SP 102 BMA Foil Stamping: Hot foil stamping in gold, silver, copper, rose gold, or custom metallic with ±0.15mm registration. Blind embossing and debossing for tactile brand elevation.
- Food-Safe Materials: FSC certified paperboard, soy-based inks, and water-based coatings available for direct food contact applications. Compliant with EU 1935/2004 and FDA 21 CFR.
- Window Patching Options: Die-cut windows with PET or PLA (biodegradable) film let customers see the product inside while keeping contents protected and fresh.
