A sleeve needs a base or product to fit around

The EFB-18 Rectangular Sleeve is an outer wrap, not a complete box on its own. Share the tray or item dimensions it must slide over, including the finished height and any lid, rim or lip that changes the fit.

Set the overlap and the direction of movement

If you already have a base tray, send a sample or drawing so the sleeve can be checked against the actual construction.

Details for the sleeve brief

  • Base tray or product dimensions
  • Slide direction and overlap preference
  • Artwork, quantity and material choice
  • Any insert or outer-pack context

Proof the sleeve with its matching component

Check movement, clearance and panel alignment before approval. Board, print, finish, price and delivery are confirmed in the quote.
