From structural design through finished, palletized product — every capability under one roof, with one team accountable at every stage.
Every successful folding carton starts with the right structural design. Our in-house engineering team works directly with your brand and operations teams to develop a carton that performs on shelf, on the pack line, and in the supply chain.
We design for material efficiency, shelf appeal, and compatibility with automated pack-line equipment — balancing aesthetics with the practical demands of high-speed production. Physical prototypes and 3D mockups are produced before a single production sheet hits the press.
Our pre-press team manages all graphic file preparation, colour separation, and plate-making in-house, ensuring what you approve is exactly what gets printed.
Substrate selection is one of the most important decisions in folding carton production — affecting print quality, structural performance, shelf life, and regulatory compliance. We work with a comprehensive range of food-safe, FDA-compliant board grades sourced from certified suppliers.
Our materials expertise spans standard Solid Bleached Sulfate (SBS) and Coated Recycled Board (CRB) through to specialty moisture-resistant grades for frozen and refrigerated applications, and FSC-certified stocks for brands with sustainability commitments.

Wider colour range for premium brand reproduction
Multi-color offset lithography is the foundation of everything we produce. Offset delivers the sharpest detail, most accurate colour reproduction, and most consistent results across long runs — making it the right choice for food and beverage packaging where brand colour accuracy is non-negotiable.
Our Heidelberg Speedmaster press lines are among the most advanced offset presses available. They deliver high-fidelity print across every substrate we run, at the speeds and run lengths enterprise food and beverage brands require.
In-line UV and aqueous coating options are available for functional protection and surface enhancement directly off the press.
Converting is where printed sheets become finished cartons. Our Bobst converting lines handle the full range of folding carton conversion in-house — from precision die-cutting and automated blanking through gluing, windowing, tray forming, and case packing.
The Bobst Expertcut flatbed die-cutter and blanker delivers exceptional cutting accuracy across all board grades. The Bobst Expertfold folder-gluer handles high-speed folding, gluing, and automated carton packing — with integrated quality inspection throughout.
Windowing and tray-forming capabilities allow us to produce more complex carton formats without outsourcing any stage of the process.

Premium finishing is what separates a good carton from one that commands attention at shelf. Every finishing capability at E.B. Box is in-house — which means faster turnaround, tighter quality control, and no outsourcing delays when your program has a launch date.
From the understated elegance of soft-touch laminate to the high-impact drama of hot foil stamping, we deliver the finishes that premium food and beverage brands require to differentiate their packaging in a competitive retail environment.
Gold, silver, holographic, and custom metallic foils applied with precision for premium shelf presence.
High-speed foil application in-line for metallic effects across larger surface areas.
Tactile surface effects that add depth, texture, and a premium hand-feel to any carton.
A velvety matte finish that elevates perceived quality and protects print from scuffing.
High-gloss varnish applied to specific areas for contrast and visual punch against matte backgrounds.
Full-surface lamination for durability, moisture resistance, and consistent surface finish.
Quality at EBBOX is not a final check — it is built into every stage of production. Our GFSI-recognized quality management system governs material intake, press approvals, in-line inspection, and pre-shipment review, ensuring every pallet that leaves our facility is to spec.
Our certifications are the baseline credentials that enterprise food and beverage procurement teams require — and we maintain them to the highest standard through continuous training, process review, and third-party auditing.
