Tray and sleeve boxes, also called drawer boxes or slide boxes, turn opening a product into an experience. The inner tray slides out of a printed outer sleeve, revealing your product in a smooth, satisfying motion. Our custom tray and sleeve boxes are made to your exact size and printed with your branding for a premium presentation.
A tray and sleeve box has two parts. The tray is an open-top box with four walls that holds the product. The sleeve is a printed tube, open at both ends, that slides over the tray. Customers push or pull the tray to open the box, just like a drawer.
The tray folds up from a single sheet, with its side walls locked in place by corner flaps or glued corners. It forms a firm, stable base that keeps products secure and presents them neatly when the drawer slides open.
The sleeve is a single printed panel folded into a tube and glued along one seam. It wraps tightly around the tray, protecting the contents and providing a large surface for your branding, artwork and product information.
The sliding drawer creates anticipation and makes products feel special. This style is widely used for luxury and gift products because it looks elegant, feels sturdy and gives a memorable first impression that customers share on social media.
Makeup palettes, skincare sets, lip kits and beauty gift sets look premium in drawer boxes. Custom inserts hold each item in place, while a printed or foiled sleeve shows off your brand.
Rings, necklaces, bracelets and watches are often presented in small drawer boxes. A card insert inside the tray holds each piece securely and makes the reveal feel luxurious.
Truffles, macarons, bonbons and gourmet sweets look irresistible when the drawer slides open. Paperboard inserts with individual cavities keep each piece separate and fresh.
Socks, scarves, ties, underwear and small accessories fit neatly in drawer boxes. Tissue paper or a printed tray interior adds to the unboxing experience.
Tea sachets, coffee samples, spice kits and gourmet gift sets are popular in this style. Dividers and food-safe materials keep products organized and protected.
Earbuds, phone accessories, smart devices and chargers are often packed in drawer boxes with fitted inserts. The structure feels premium and protects delicate items.
Corporate gifts, subscription boxes, wedding favors and seasonal gift sets benefit from the elegant drawer style. A printed sleeve can be personalized for each event or campaign.
We make tray and sleeve boxes from folding paperboard for a lightweight, cost-effective option, or from rigid chipboard wrapped in printed paper for a heavier, luxury feel. Kraft and recycled boards are also available.
Tell us the length, width and height of your product, and we will size the tray and sleeve for a smooth slide and secure fit. The sleeve is sized just large enough for the tray to glide without being loose.
Custom inserts made from paperboard or molded pulp hold products in place inside the tray. Dividers separate multiple items and give gift sets a neat, organized look.
A ribbon pull or die-cut thumb notch makes the tray easy to slide out. Ribbon pulls add a luxury touch, while thumb notches keep the design simple and cost-effective.
A die-cut window in the sleeve, covered with clear film, lets customers see the product without opening the box. This is ideal for chocolates, cosmetics and retail display.
We print the sleeve in full-color CMYK or exact Pantone shades, and we can also print the tray inside and out. A contrasting tray color creates a striking reveal when the drawer opens.
Matte and soft-touch lamination give a smooth, modern feel. Foil stamping, embossing, debossing and spot UV make logos and patterns stand out on the sleeve.
The double layer formed by the tray and sleeve makes this style sturdy. For shipping, we can pack drawer boxes in fitted outer cartons so they arrive in perfect condition.
Choose recyclable paperboard, kraft board, recycled content and soy-based inks. Paper inserts and plastic-free windows make the box easy to recycle.
With a minimum order of 100 units, you can create drawer boxes for holidays, launches and limited collections. Keep the same tray and change only the sleeve design to save costs.
Our tray and sleeve boxes serve cosmetics brands, jewelry designers, chocolatiers, tea and coffee companies, apparel brands, tech accessory sellers, corporate gift companies and subscription box businesses.
Our designers prepare dielines for both the tray and sleeve, place your artwork and check that everything lines up perfectly. You receive a free digital proof and can request changes until everything looks right.
Order from just 100 units. Production usually takes 8 to 10 business days after proof approval, with rush service available for launches and events.
Brands with several products can use one standard tray size and change only the sleeve for each variant, scent or flavor. This keeps costs low, makes reordering simple and gives your whole range a consistent look on shelves and in online photos.
When drawer boxes are sent by mail, a snug sleeve fit keeps the tray from sliding open in transit. For extra protection we can add a sticker seal, a belly band or a fitted outer mailer so every box arrives looking perfect.
