All of our box closure methods are created to keep the box securely closed until it is time for the final customer to open it. For extra security, we recommend choosing a box that includes adhesive to close it permanently.

Additionally, we recommend against putting any key information extremely close to the closure area. This way you don’t have to worry about anything getting cut off once the sleeve is secured around your product. You can choose between ¼” and ½” adhesive to be placed on the closure.
