Custom Subscription Boxes
Custom subscription boxes are curated packages that deliver personalized products to subscribers on a recurring basis—monthly, quarterly, or at another set interval. Unlike standard subscription boxes, they’re tailored to each customer’s preferences, needs, or lifestyle. Businesses use them to provide convenience, surprise, and a sense of exclusivity, while customers enjoy discovering items handpicked just for them, from snacks and beauty products to books, hobbies, or niche goods.

Cut Lines
Indicate the exact path where the packaging will be cut to its final size. These lines are usually solid and are used to trim the material.
Fold Lines (Crease Lines)
Mark where the material will be folded. These lines are often dashed or dotted, guiding where the cardboard or paper will be bent to form the box.
Perforation Lines
These are dotted lines that define where small holes are punched into the material. Perforation lines allow for easy tearing, which is often used for coupons, product access points, or removable parts.
Bleed Area
This is the area extending beyond the cut lines where the artwork or design elements are placed to ensure that there are no white edges when the packaging is cut. Artwork is extended into the bleed area to avoid unwanted gaps in the final product.
Safety Margin
A buffer zone inside the cut lines where no critical text or artwork should be placed. This ensures that important elements aren't cut off during the trimming process.
Registration Marks
Small marks outside the cut lines used to help align the printing plates and ensure colors are printed accurately and consistently.
