★★★★★
“PackagingSmith nailed our corrugated boxes on the first proof. The print quality beats our old supplier and the dieline was free — exactly what a growing brand needs.”
MR
Maria R.Founder, Indie Beauty Co.
★★★★★
“We reordered four times in six months. The board feels solid in hand and the closures stay tight every time. Customers think the box costs more than it does.”
JT

★★★★★
“Switched from a local printer and saved around 22% on landed cost. The free dieline caught a structural issue before we hit tooling. Worth it on the first run alone.”

Corrugated board that survives delivery bikes and trucks

Takeout packaging has to survive stacked bags, temperature swings and the last mile, so we build from B, C or E-flute kraft corrugated with reinforced corners and crush-resistant flutes. The result is a box that holds its shape from kitchen counter to customer doorstep without collapsing. Tell us your typical bag weight and we will calibrate flute and board grade.

Liners that keep sauces where they belong

We line our takeout boxes with FDA-compliant polyethylene or PLA barriers to handle hot, oily or saucy food without soak-through. The barrier is bonded to the corrugated during manufacturing, so there are no separate inserts to fail or forget. Request a grease-penetration test report with your samples.

Print that turns every delivery into a billboard

Corrugated takes bold CMYK + Pantone print beautifully, so your logo, tagline and QR code travel with every order. We can also produce handled gable carriers and die-cut drink holders that match the box for a cohesive to-go system. Get a quote for a full takeout packaging suite.
