Start with the candle and its vessel
A jar candle, tin and freestanding candle do not need the same box. Measure the finished item, including the lid, and note its weight. If the candle will be packed with a care card, dust cover or gift item, include those parts in the measurements so the proposed fit can be reviewed together.
Decide whether it is retail, gift or dispatch packaging
A shelf-ready pack, a gift presentation and an outer dispatch box solve different problems. If the product is fragile or needs an insert, describe the requirement; protection should be confirmed for the actual candle rather than assumed from the box name.
Send a useful candle-packaging brief
- Candle and vessel dimensions, weight and quantity
- Single item or gift-set layout
- Artwork and preferred print or finish
- Any insert or handling requirement to review
Confirm the details before ordering
Material, structure, print, finish, price and delivery are confirmed in the quote for the chosen specification. A sample or drawing can help check the fit before artwork is signed off.
