Drawer Box is a foreign trade packaging term referring to a rigid paper box with a pull-out inner box, usually composed of an outer sleeve and an inner drawer (tray), similar to a matchbox or drawer structure. Usage scenarios: widely used for packaging high-end goods such as gifts, jewelry, electronics, and cosmetics; because of its elegant opening method and good display effect, it is often used for retail display and gift giving. Notes: 1. Material (such as gray board, art paper, specialty paper) and surface process (hot stamping, UV, lamination) must be specified; 2. Dimensions must be precise, and the gap between the drawer and the outer sleeve should be moderate: too tight makes it difficult to pull out, too loose makes it easy to fall off; 3. Pay attention to transport protection during export to avoid deformation from squeezing; 4. Difference from Lid-and-Base Box: the latter has separate top and bottom lids, while the drawer box is pulled out from the side; difference from Flip-top Box: the latter has a hinged flip cover. In foreign trade, 'Drawer Box' should be stated in the contract and drawings or samples attached to avoid disputes caused by structural misunderstanding.
📝 Examples
1. Please produce 5,000 drawer boxes according to the design drawings we provided. The outer box should use 128g matte art paper mounted on 2.0mm gray board, and the inner drawer should use black flocking cloth, and ensure smooth pulling. (Note: specify material, process, and functional requirements.)
2. The dimensions of this batch of drawer boxes are 2 mm larger than last time, causing the inner box to be too loose. The customer complained. Please readjust the mold and send 200 replacement pieces. (Note: emphasize the impact of dimensional precision on function and after-sales handling.)
