How the Print Process Works

Send your artwork or brief

Supply your logo, brand colours and any copy. No print-ready artwork? Our design team can prepare it. We accept PDF, AI, EPS or high-res PNG.

Digital proof approval

We send a digital proof for sign-off before any plates or dies are made. For flexo and litho runs a physical printed sample is available on request.

Die-cut & manufacture

Once approved, your box is die-cut to your exact dimensions and printed using modern flexographic machinery and water-based inks at our ISO-certified partner factory.

Delivery to your door

We send a digital proof for sign-off before any plates or dies are made. For flexo and litho runs a physical printed sample is available on request.

Eco-friendly printing: We exclusively use water-based inks, substantially more environmentally friendly than solvent or lead-based alternatives. Our corrugated board is made from up to 87% recycled fibre, and every box is 100% recyclable.

No design team? Send us a brief and we’ll create print-ready artwork for your box. Ask about artwork fees when requesting your print quote.

Custom-Sized Cardboard Boxes

If none of our stock sizes are right, we can arrange a box made to your exact internal dimensions. The right box reduces void fill, lowers shipping weight, and protects your product better.

Exact internal dimensions

Tell us L × W × H of your product (plus inserts or void fill) and we design a box that fits perfectly, no wasted space, no excess material cost.

Right board grade for your product

We recommend single wall, double wall or triple wall based on your product weight, fragility and shipping route, protection without over-engineering.

Full range of FEFCO styles

Tell us L × W × H of your product (plus inserts or void fill) and we design a box that fits perfectly, no wasted space, no excess material cost.

Exact internal dimensions

We can supply all standard FEFCO box styles - 0201 RSC, 0215, 0217, 0427, 0713 display, and more. Custom sizes and styles also available.

Physical sample before full run

We produce a sample box so you can test fit, assemble it on your packing line, and approve the spec before committing to a full production order.

Cardboard Box FAQ

Common questions about our cardboard boxes

Single wall vs double wall - which do I need?

Single wall corrugated has one fluted layer between two flat liners, suitable for most eCommerce parcels up to around 15kg. Double wall has two fluted layers, making it significantly stronger and better for heavy goods, fragile items, or palletised freight. If you're unsure, tell us your product weight and we'll advise you.

Are the dimensions internal or external?

All dimensions listed in our stock range are internal (L × W × H). This is the usable space inside the box. The external dimension is typically 8-12mm larger on each face depending on board grade. When measuring for a custom box, always measure the product plus any inserts or void fill you intend to include.

What is the minimum order for custom-sized boxes?

Plain custom boxes start from 50 units. Printed custom boxes start from 250 units for flexographic print, or 50 units for digital print. Litho-laminated boxes require a minimum of 500 units. The unit cost reduces significantly at higher volumes, contact us for a tiered quote.

How long does a custom box order take?

Plain custom boxes typically take 5-8 working days from order confirmation. Flexo printed boxes take 10-15 working days from artwork approval. Litho-laminated boxes take 15-20 working days. We provide a physical sample for approval before the full run, which adds 2-3 working days.

Do you deliver across all of Ireland?

Yes — we deliver to the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland. Stock orders placed before 1pm on a working day typically ship the same day, with 1–2 working day delivery. Free delivery on orders over €150. Pallet deliveries available — contact us for a freight quote.

Can I get a sample before ordering?

For stock boxes, we recommend ordering the smallest available bundle to test fit and quality. For custom orders, we always manufacture a physical sample for your approval before starting the full production run. Sample charges apply but are credited against your order.

Can you supply inserts and void fill too?

Yes. We can supply custom corrugated inserts, dividers and cell packs alongside your boxes - particularly useful for fragile, glass or electronic products. We also stock bubble wrap, packing paper, and packaging tape. Ask about full packaging bundle quotes.

Are your boxes recyclable?

Yes - 100%. All our corrugated cardboard boxes are made from up to 87% recycled fibre and are fully recyclable in kerbside collections. Printed boxes use water-based inks which do not interfere with recycling. Corrugated cardboard has the highest recycling rate of any packaging material in use today.

Buying Cardboard Boxes in Ireland

Ventamac supplies corrugated cardboard boxes to Irish businesses, offering a wide stock range of common eCommerce sizes and next-day nationwide delivery. All boxes meet FEFCO standards and are made using corrugated board from ISO 9001:2015-certified manufacturers, with up to 87% recycled fibre.

Our stock range covers everything from 250 x 250mm small flat boxes to 540mm XXL cubes and Euro pallet boxes, in both single-wall and double-wall grades. For sizes outside our stock range, we can arrange a box made to your exact internal dimensions – with or without flexographic or digital printing.

Getting the right box matters – oversized boxes lead to excess void fill, higher shipping costs, and a poor customer experience. Undersized or underspecified boxes risk product damage and returns. Our team can advise on the ideal box size and board grade for your product and shipping route.

For high-volume buyers, trade accounts with credit terms are available. Contact us to discuss your monthly needs and get a custom pricing structure for your business.
