Mini Gable Boxes – Compact, Convenient & Customisable Packaging for Small Treasures
Mini gable boxes are the perfect blend of charm, functionality, and eco-conscious packaging—especially when your product requires something compact, lightweight, and eye-catching. With their signature pitched roof design and integrated carry handle, mini gable boxes offer the same convenience and visual appeal as standard gable boxes but in a much smaller, portable form. At Print Custom Box UK, we specialise in manufacturing high-quality custom mini gable boxes ideal for favours, samples, gifts, and retail packaging.
Whether you’re showcasing a handmade item, giving out a party favour, or delivering a high-end product sample, mini gable boxes provide a professional yet delightful presentation. Their reduced size makes them cost-effective, easy to handle, and suitable for a wide range of industries in the UK.
What Are Mini Gable Boxes?
Mini gable boxes are small-scale folding cartons with a built-in handle and tuck-in flaps at the top, designed for portability and easy assembly. They retain the gable-style pitched top associated with standard gable boxes but are scaled down to suit smaller items. These boxes are typically used for party favours, samples, small gifts, cosmetics, or promotional giveaways.
Mini gable boxes can be flat-packed for shipping and storage efficiency and assembled quickly when needed. Their compact footprint makes them ideal for on-the-go packaging, while still offering a generous branding surface.
