Folding rigid versus lid-and-base versus MDF — pick the structure first

Collapsible grey-board boxes ship flatter. Lid-and-base and MDF cores present better and cube more. Freight follows the choice.

Folding rigid

Wrapped grey-board cores, typically 1.5–3 mm, fold for outbound freight. Cyan, orange, navy, black, and white palettes on this site are structure references, not SKUs. Good for brand colour, foil, and UV.

Lid-and-base and book-style

Heaven-and-earth and book-style boxes present on shelf. Magnetic or ribbon closures belong on the RFQ. They cube more in the container than a collapsible wrap.

MDF cores

Catalog MDF cores run 1.5–7 mm. Use them when lid stiffness and weight matter more than cube. They are not interchangeable with grey board on the same dieline without a new sample.

Catalog ranges only. Confirm on sample, board lot, and destination spec. Certificate numbers are not invented here — request current scans on the RFQ.
