Postal Boxes for E-commerce

Why choose a cardboard postal box?

Are you selling jewellery online? This category contains our range of high quality, Eco-friendly postal boxes that keep your jewellery safe during transportation. We offer postage boxes in a variety of sizes and several beautiful colours as well as with different types of closing mechanisms - making it easy for you to choose an e-commerce box that matches your requirements!

Postal boxes – sometimes referred to as shipping boxes, postage boxes and mailing boxes – are a convenient and practical choice. They are delivered “Plano”, which means they are flat packed, so they take up a minimum of space in your warehouse. They are very easy to assemble, and when assembled, they become very sturdy and robust – a perfect choice for shipping smaller items, not only jewellery but also glasses, watches etc.

Choose between two types of closing mechanisms for your postal packaging boxes:

• Peel and seal; easily closed thanks to an adhesive strip – some of the boxes have two strips - one for shipping and one for returns.
• Locking tabs; easily closed and opened thanks to the built-in locking tabs (wings).

Common to both types of postage boxes is that you don’t need tape to assemble them. You could consider sealing them with tape or a sturdy sticker to make sure no one can open the box.

Personalised postal boxes

We offer to customize the postage boxes by printing them with your logo or a small greeting. Custom postal packaging is a great branding opportunity and it is easy to transform a plain brown box into something extraordinary! By default, we are printing inside the box, giving your customers a lovely surprise when they open the box - but if you prefer, we can print on the outside of the boxes.

We can print anything from a small greeting, a clever message, or simply just your logo. You can use beautiful fonts or perhaps small icons inviting your customers to share, like, and tag your brand on social media.

There are many amazing possibilities for you to personalize your postal packaging. All we need is a graphic layout from you to create the cliché. You are very welcome to contact our sales department for more information about our shipping boxes, logo printing etc.

Postal Boxes & Packaging FAQ

Are your postal boxes eco-friendly?

The corrugated cardboard used to make our shipping boxes are made from FSC-certified raw materials. The boxes are sturdy enough to be reused many times. At the end of their lives, they can be composted easily.

Do you deliver postal boxes within the UK?

Westpack delivers postal boxes to the UK every day. Our shipping boxes can be branded with your company logo – and the MOQ is very low. We have postal boxes in many sizes.

Can I order postal boxes with logo print?

Yes, you can. When you have selected the postal boxes you need, upload your brand logo at checkout. Our sales department will then send you a logo proof. Once you approve this, the production process is initiated.

Where can I buy e-commerce packaging?

If you are a goldsmith, a jeweller, or a jewellery designer, you simply must check out Westpack.com. We have everything you need to make your jewellery look (extra) good. You can even order free samples if you want to get a feel of the packaging before you order.

What is e-commerce packaging?

When online stores ship products to customers, they need proper packaging to protect the contents. Add to that the growing emphasis on the unboxing experience, and you see why e-commerce packaging is more important than ever. We have everything you need to ship your jewellery pieces safely.

How to package jewellery and accessories for shipping?

First of all, you must ensure that jewellery is protected. You do that by adding void filling to your shipping box. You should also ensure that the postal box you choose is of good quality, not too thin and fragile. If you use bubble mailers, you could place your jewellery inside a zipper bag first – just for good measure.

How to fold a postal box?

It is easy to fold a postal box. And we have made a video that demonstrates it: "How to fold a postal box"

Generally, you need to use the folding lines and fold the cardboard in the correct order. As a rule-of-thumb, the flaps at the sides should be folded over (clinching) the other sides. But it depends on the type of shipping box.
