What Are Coloured Gable Boxes?
Coloured gable boxes are a one-piece folding carton with an integrated carry handle and tuck-in top flaps, commonly used for packaging takeaway items, gift sets, or promotional products. These boxes are distinguished by their gable-shaped top and wide colour range, making them a vibrant alternative to plain packaging.
They are delivered flat, easy to assemble, and can be custom printed or pre-coloured with a variety of finishes. Their built-in handle makes them especially convenient for events, foodservice, and retail packaging.

- Food takeaway and catering (sandwiches, desserts, snacks)
- Event and wedding favour packaging
- Promotional kits and giveaways
- Retail packaging for cosmetics, accessories, and apparel
- Gift packaging for holidays and seasonal promotions
- Subscription and e-commerce packaging
