FAQ

Q: What is the minimum order quantity for kraft eco soap boxes?

Our standard MOQ ranges from 1,000 to 3,000 units depending on box size, window configuration, and print complexity. For established brands scaling production, we offer volume pricing at 5,000+ and 10,000+ tiers. We are flexible with first-time customers — contact us to discuss your specific requirements and we will find an MOQ that works for your launch.

Q: Should I choose PLA or PET for the window film?

PLA (polylactic acid) is the best choice if your brand prioritizes compostability — PLA windows are certified compostable under EN 13432 and break down in industrial composting facilities within 12 weeks. PET windows offer superior moisture resistance and crystal clarity, making them ideal for products exposed to humid environments like bathrooms. PET is also 100% recyclable. We recommend PLA for organic and zero-waste brands, and PET for products requiring maximum shelf-life protection.

Q: How durable is soy-based ink on kraft packaging — will it withstand soap moisture and humidity?

Our soy-based inks are formulated for kraft substrates and pass rigorous humidity resistance testing. Printed boxes withstand 85% relative humidity at 35°C for 72 hours without color bleed, smearing, or delamination. We achieve ΔE ≤ 2.0 colorfastness and ≥50 dry rub cycles per our QC protocol. For soap products with high essential oil content, we can apply a thin water-based matte varnish over the printed areas for additional protection without compromising recyclability.

Q: Can I print the FSC logo on my kraft soap boxes?

Yes. As an FSC Chain-of-Custody certified manufacturer, we are authorized to print the FSC logo on your packaging. You will need to hold your own FSC trademark license or work through our license under a specific arrangement. We guide every customer through the FSC logo approval process, including correct logo placement, minimum size requirements, and the mandatory license code. The process typically adds 2–3 days to the pre-production timeline for FSC approval.

Q: How quickly can I receive samples, and will they work with my actual soap product?

Free pre-production samples are delivered within 5–7 business days from artwork confirmation. We strongly recommend sending us your actual soap bars (or precise dimensions and weight) so we can produce samples with a verified product fit test — ensuring the box dimensions, window placement, and insert (if any) perfectly accommodate your product. This fit-tested sample eliminates surprises during mass production and is included at no extra cost.
