Custom Box Dividers
Interlocking dividers separate multiple items inside one carton. Cell dimensions and divider height are matched to the products and packing method.
Standard MOQ: 500 pcs per style, size and artwork. Higher quantities may apply to special specifications. Sample timing and production timing are quoted for the project.
Specification for Box Dividers
| Specification | Project input |
|---|---|
| Product dimensions and weight | Use the complete product, including protrusions and accessories, when defining support. |
| Contact points and cavities | Mark load-bearing points, delicate surfaces and areas that must remain clear. |
| Insert material | Identify the material or grade and review the required contact and handling conditions. |
| Removal access | Allow a practical way to insert and remove the contents without forcing sensitive parts. |
| Outer-box fit | Check the insert-to-box interface with the actual board, product and closing arrangement. |
| Quantity | Quantity per style, size and artwork design. Standard MOQ is 500 pieces; higher quantities may apply. |
| Artwork | PDF, AI or CDR artwork where available; JPG/PNG references and Excel specifications can support the brief. Files are reviewed for their intended use. |
| Delivery | Destination, target date and whether packaging should arrive assembled or flat, where applicable. |
Insert materials and contact surfaces
The quotation confirms the selected grade and compatible options.
| Material option | Specification and confirmation |
|---|---|
| Product-contact material | Select the insert material for the product surface and support needed. Paperboard, corrugated board, moulded pulp, foam and formed plastic are different constructions. |
| Thickness and support | Review the cavity depth, supporting walls and contact areas together. Supply the actual product weight and profile before confirming the design. |
| Visible surface | Specify the exposed colour, paper face or lining, where applicable. Keep decorative choices separate from fit and retention requirements. |
Cell size and divider height
Cell count, cell dimensions, product height and the outer-box cavity.
- Measurement reference: Give units and label product, internal or external dimensions. Include a drawing or reference sample if available.
- Multiple sizes: List quantities by size. A size change may require a revised structure, artwork or sample.
Visible divider panels
Use supplied identification or orientation marks only where they assist assembly or packing.
| Print preparation | Specification and confirmation |
|---|---|
| Print areas | Mark printed faces, unprinted areas, text and codes. The material and order requirements determine the printing method. |
| Colour reference | Provide CMYK artwork or a Pantone reference where available. Approve colour on the agreed material and sample; screen previews show layout. |
| Files and versions | Send PDF, AI or CDR artwork if available; JPG/PNG references and Excel specifications or data can support the brief. Files are reviewed before production. |
Visible surfaces and coverings
Availability depends on the material, structure and intended use.
- Contact surface: Identify delicate coatings, edges and areas that should not be rubbed or compressed. Review them with the proposed insert sample.
- Visible presentation: Describe the colour and appearance needed around the product. Printed paper faces or separate branded cards can be assessed where appropriate to the insert type.
- Edges and access points: Review cut or formed edges, finger access and the way the product is lifted out. A decorative surface must not obstruct removal or support.
Cavity layout and component fit
Set each cell around the widest product section and any protective wrap. Partition height and assembly sequence affect contact between adjacent items.
Choose divider height, slot arrangement and material around the products; check assembly and contact between adjacent units.
- Working layout: Send a drawing, reference or actual product. Identify fixed requirements and options to compare.
- Supply and assembly: Agree stacked, nested or fitted supply where the insert design allows it. Identify matching outer boxes and the assembly work expected at the packing site.
- Component matching: For a multi-part pack, list component sizes, assembly order and which parts the quotation includes.
Sample checks: cell layout and partition assembly
Load every cell and inspect the outer pack during handling. Compare shaped inserts where parts need contour support rather than simple separation.
- Structural sample: Check dimensions, assembly, fit and opening or application with the actual contents where relevant.
- Printed sample: Check print areas, colour and finish. Record any differences between the sample process and bulk production.
- Production reference: Approve the sample and artwork version before production. Recheck affected parts after changes to dimensions, materials or functional components.
Sample fees, shipping and timing are quoted per project. A visual proof cannot replace physical checks.
