Pillow boxes are an elegant, space-efficient packaging solution known for their unique curved design and minimal assembly requirements. Their distinctive shape, resembling a pillow when folded, makes them ideal for both gift and retail packaging. At Print Custom Box UK, we offer fully customisable pillow boxes tailored for businesses seeking impactful presentation and sustainable packaging practices in the UK market.
Whether you’re packaging jewellery, apparel accessories, wedding favours, or promotional items, pillow boxes provide a charming and professional way to enhance your product offering. Lightweight, durable, and highly brandable, they’re a go-to packaging choice for brands that value both aesthetics and practicality.
What Are Pillow Boxes?
Pillow boxes are foldable cartons made from paperboard or card stock, curved on both sides to form a capsule-like shape. They’re typically used for small to medium-sized items and are known for their sleek form and simplicity. These boxes are easy to assemble—simply pop open and fold the ends inward—and can be sealed with stickers, ribbons, or custom tabs.
Compact, affordable, and lightweight, pillow boxes are ideal for point-of-sale presentation, gifting, or e-commerce shipping.
