Colorfully printed and without any annoying visible closure: magnetic boxes are unique, noble and suitable for many products. How does the practical packaging box make your product outstanding? Follow us to check out the top design ideas for the magnetic box, as well as its features.

What are Magnetic Boxes?

Magnetic boxes are so-called cardboard packaging boxes with magnetic closure because they are closed with one or more magnets. Basically, one could also say boxes with magnetic closure or folding boxes with magnetic closure. Because that’s exactly what they are: hollow wall boxes that are closed with a hinged lid. In contrast to normal folding boxes with a hollow wall, the lid is not a lid with insertion tabs, but a lid with hidden magnets, which together with magnets in the bottom part form a stable closure.

Which Products are Magnetic Packaging Boxes Used For?

Magnetic boxes are multi-sensory all-rounders! Because they not only have a haptic and visual effect but also appeal to the acoustic senses: When opening and closing, the magnets generate an exciting attraction that can also be heard in a quiet “plop”.

Through additional finishes, the magnetic board can receive further attention-grabbing icing on the spot, which can be seen and felt.

By the way, magnetic boxes are suitable for a wide range of products that require high-quality and stable cardboard packaging boxes:

• Customer Gifts
• Product sets (with individual inlay, even multi-part sets are safely stored)
• Product Presentations
• artistic, delicate products
• Glasses, bottles
• Jewelry
• Chocolates
• Advent calendar

How Do Custom Printed Magnetic Boxes Become Highlights?

Magnetic boxes, colorfully printed and impressively striking, we will show you how to take advantage of custom printed magnetic boxes with these design ideas:

1) Boxes without annoying tabs

Since the magnetic box lid has no plug-in tabs, there are also no disturbing details that distract from your print image. The magnets, which provide a secure closure, are located in the folded down front part of the lid. Minimalistically designed magnetic boxes are thus even more noble and modern. Colorfully printed cardboard packaging can take advantage of the extra space on the lid that results from this.

2) Coloured printed – from all sides

Magnetic folding boxes can be printed on all visible parts. A total of six sides of the box can be printed. Magnetic boxes consist of three parts: the lid, the bottom insert, and the lower part. For each part, you can decide separately whether it should be printed or remain unprinted.

3) Strong design pulls

Three of our cardboard grades can be printed in four colors: chromo board white, chromo board natural side, and brown cardboard. Use this opportunity for your purposes, because the power of colors is one of the strongest means to draw attention to your product.

If you want to be really extraordinary when it comes to colors, it’s best to use special colors. You can order these from Luxury-Paper-Box.Com.

4) The inner values also count

Because the inside – your product – is particularly important for boxes, the design inside the cardboard box should also be carefully thought out. Whether you choose eye-catching printing, finishing, or an individual inlay is up to you. It is important that the design fits the product.

Other Design Ideas for Your Magnetic Box

Your magnetic box should match your product because that’s what it’s for! The example above does not fit your product? The following small collection of other box options can also serve as inspiration:

1) Unprinted: Less is more

In this case, a colorful print fits perfectly with the product, because here it gives a foretaste of the colorful cards inside the box. However, the opposite may be true for your product. If you have a clean, modern product or one that sparkles and shines itself, it might be good if the box recedes a little into the background and gives the product the space to shine. In such a case, it makes sense to leave the magnetic box unprinted. In combination with a natural cardboard box, you create a high-quality box that radiates elegance and quality.

2) Black natural cardboard: noble alternative

The colorful pictures from the example look so radiant because they were printed on cardboard GC1 white. Pictures are displayed on this cardboard box in the most beautiful and radiant way. If you are looking for a noble alternative that looks completely different, how about a chic black natural cardboard? This can be printed online in silver or white and thus receives a discreet and high-quality look.

3) Custom inlay for more safety

In the example, the card set is simply inserted into the box. However, for other products that are fragile, an individual inlay makes sense. We build this completely according to your wishes around your product. Nothing off the shelf – completely individual! An inlay ensures that the product stays in place and does not fly around in the box. In addition, it presents individual parts of a set exactly as you imagine it.

4) Refined magnetic boxes  

The example presented convinces above all by a colorful and artistic design. An equally effective and convincing design can be created by the use of finishes. Particularly noteworthy are the finishes of hot foil embossing, partial UV printing, and blind embossing, which set small but fine highlights through selective use.
