Price calculation standard for large-volume packaging box printing

Jul. 21, 2023

The calculation standard of box printing is usually calculated based on multiple factors, including:


1. Size and material: The size of the box and the material chosen will directly affect the cost. Larger sizes and high-quality materials usually increase the cost.


2. Printing technology: Different printing technologies have different prices. For example, offset and gravure printing may be relatively inexpensive, while special effects such as screen printing and hot stamping may add cost.


3. Number of colors: The number of colors printed will also affect the cost. Using more colors will increase printing costs.

4. Decoration and special effects: If special decorative effects are required, such as bronzing, embossing or screen printing, these will increase the cost.


5. Order Quantity: Generally speaking, it is relatively more economical to print large quantities of packaging boxes, because the cost can be reduced through mass production.


6. Design complexity: The complexity of the box design will also have an impact on the price. Complex designs may require more platemaking and production processes, increasing costs.


7. Production lead time: If a printing order needs to be completed urgently, an expedited production may be required, which may result in additional costs.


8. Shipping and Delivery: Shipping and delivery charges also need to be taken into consideration, especially for high volume orders.
