Custom Retail Packaging Sleeve Printing, answered.

File setup, options, paper, and pricing. Still unsure? A print specialist is one message away.

To get a correctly sized sleeve, it’s important to give us the correct measurements of your food container. Here are a few simple steps to find these measurements using your container:

  1. Decide what the width of your sleeve should be. Do you want it to cover most of your container or only a small area?
  2. Trim a piece of paper down to this width. You made need to put multiple sheets together in the next steps if your container is larger.
  3. Wrap the paper band around your container where you want the sleeve to go. Make sure to wrap tightly and run your finger over the edges to form creases.
  4. Mark where the band ends meet and cut off any excess. Measure the total length of the band. Write this down. This length will eventually change depending on the closure method you choose.
  5. Measure the length of each panel formed by the creases you made. Write this down too!

All of this information will influence your sleeve design and is needed so that we can print your sleeves perfectly.

Yes!

These sleeves are perfect for displaying your branding and important product information in retail settings.

These sleeves work great for either purpose. They are durable enough to be primary packaging and can fit snugly over multiple layers to become secondary packaging that provides extra protection.

These sleeves are made from sturdy recycled paper, so they are very durable. They will stand up to the regular wear and tear found in retail environments.

Of course!

We offer a free paper sample pack where you can request a generic booklet sample.

1) Select ‘Hard Proof’ as your proofing option on our product order page.

You can choose which sides of your packaging you would like printed, including the interior.

Packaging without tape, stickers, or foil is completely recyclable.

If your packaging does include one of these features, please remove the affected part before recycling the remaining packaging.

Packaging without adhesive, tape, stickers, foil, or glue is compostable. We recommend shedding the packaging before adding it to a home compost pile.

If your packaging does include one of these features, please remove the affected part before composting the remaining packaging. We offer specific compostable packaging sleeves!

Yes!

We recommend choosing an uncoated paper stock to ensure easy and smudge-free handwriting.

All of our packaging is made with eco-friendly paper and ink, so there are no wrong choices!

In particular, our kraft boxes or kraft packaging sleeves can help provide a more natural aesthetic that may be helpful in showing off the sustainable nature of your products.

Yes!

Our boxes are very durable, no matter which paper stock you choose. They can be stacked and stored without fear of them getting crushed. To ensure the boxes stay in great condition, we recommend not placing large, heavy objects on top of them.

Of course!

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.

Please remember that score lines are areas where your packaging sleeve will be folded over your product. We recommend against having key information crossing these lines.

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.

Our customer service team is more than happy to answer any additional questions you might have. They can be reached via email at csr@greenerprinter.com or via phone at 1-800-655-5833 Monday through Friday 8:30 am to 5:30 pm.
