This Rigid Two-Piece Cigar Presentation Box is a luxury packaging solution for premium cigar brands and tobacco retailers. Manufactured by Guangdong Bincai Color Printing Co., Ltd. (founded 2003) at our 18,000 sqm dual-factory facility in Foshan, Pearl River Delta, this humidor-style box combines traditional craftsmanship with modern production precision. The interior is lined with authentic Spanish cedar (Cedrela odorata) veneer — the gold standard for cigar storage — which naturally regulates humidity and imparts the classic cedar aroma prized by cigar aficionados. Each box is produced on our KBA Rapida 1050 4-color offset and Heidelberg Speedmaster CD 102 7+1 UV presses with a daily capacity of 1.7 million boxes, ensuring consistent quality at any scale.
The two-piece telescopic design provides a tight, friction-fit seal that maintains internal humidity while being easy to open and close. The exterior can be wrapped in premium materials — linen-textured art paper, leatherette, or matte-laminated stock — with gold foil hot-stamping for brand logos, crests, and decorative borders. Inside, individual cigar cradles hold 5, 10, 15, or 25 cigars securely in place, while a ribbon pull-tab allows effortless tray removal.

Bincai’s 22 years of rigid box manufacturing expertise, combined with our in-house CNC routing capability for precision cedar trays, means we deliver cigar packaging that performs as well as it presents. Our dedicated luxury packaging line handles the complete process — printing, foil stamping, die-cutting, cedar lining, and assembly — under one roof, eliminating the quality gaps that plague multi-vendor supply chains. From single-stick samplers to 25-count collector editions, we’ve produced over 50,000 humidor-style boxes for markets across the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific.

FAQ
Q: Is the Spanish cedar authentic and CITES-compliant?
A: Yes. We use genuine Cedrela odorata (Spanish cedar) sourced from CITES-compliant suppliers with full chain-of-custody documentation. Each shipment includes CITES export permits and phytosanitary certificates. We can provide documentation for your customs clearance.
Q: What cigar capacities can you manufacture?
A: We produce boxes for 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 cigars. Tray routing is CNC-cut to your specific vitola dimensions — Robusto (50 ring × 124mm), Toro (52 × 152mm), Churchill (47 × 178mm), Corona (42 × 142mm), Lancero (38 × 190mm), or any custom gauge. MOQ is 500 units per size configuration.
Q: How does the humidity seal work without a traditional humidor clasp?
A: The two-piece telescopic lid design creates a precision friction-fit seal. The lid’s internal dimension is calibrated to be 0.3–0.5mm smaller than the base exterior, creating an interference fit that maintains a stable microclimate. For enhanced sealing, we can integrate a thin silicone gasket into the lid rim or add magnetic closures. We also offer an integrated Boveda or humidity pack holder as a built-in feature.
Q: Can I get gold foil stamping on textured or linen-wrapped surfaces?
A: Absolutely. We’ve developed specialized foil stamping techniques for textured substrates including linen, leatherette, and embossed papers. Our Bobst hot-foil press achieves ±0.15mm registration even on textured surfaces. We recommend combination embossing + foil (sculpted foil) for the most premium effect — the foil sinks into the embossed depression, creating a tactile, three-dimensional brand mark.
Q: What about international shipping — will the cedar lining cause customs issues?
A: We provide full CITES documentation, phytosanitary certificates, and FSC Chain-of-Custody certificates with every export shipment. Our logistics team handles customs clearance documentation for the Americas (USDA APHIS), EU (EU Timber Regulation), and Asia-Pacific markets. The cedar veneer is kiln-dried and treated to meet ISPM 15 standards where applicable. Typical air freight transit time is 5–7 days; sea freight 18–25 days.
