The quoted dimensions on a Product detail page for boxes are internal dimensions.
 
Some product descriptions may also include the product’s external dimension. 

To measure a box, you will need to use a ruler or measuring tape to measure the length, width and depth (height) of the box. Listed dimensions are always internal dimensions and measured in millimetres. When providing dimensions, it needs to be in the correct order of Length x Width x Height. This is industry standard (L x W x D) Units are always in millimetres

Claycoat White is our recommended choice of stock when looking to make colours “pop” with exceptional quality. Kraft/Brown is well-suited to designs that utilise dark bold colours. Using bright and vibrant colours on Kraft/Brown may dull the colour resolution.

All our boxes are manufactured and printed in Victoria or New South Wales, Australia.
Fun fact. Abbe is an Australian family-owned and operated business for over 30 years!

At present, our digital printing process for our custom-printed mailers cannot print white ink.
If you want to include white in your design, we suggest you start with our Clay/White boxes and incorporate white in your design using “negative space” (i.e. leave the areas you want to be white as blank space). You can also add objects and colour them white and our software will automatically turn these objects into negative space. Warning: on a brown box white objects will allow the brown colour of the box to show through.
 
Or alternatively, we can offer white ink printed box via our flexo/litho printed solution… submit quote request here 

Depending on the product and material you select, it will be printed on a gloss white claycoat board or a matte white board. Under Material Options on the product page, you will note the Materials attributes.   
All brown boxes are matte finish.  

Once you have completed your design, placed your order and completed payment your job enters an automated processing system and cannot be cancelled. We request you check and double-check your order before you finalise, as once the order has been placed it cannot be cancelled.
