Key Features
Custom Die Cut Boxes — Any Shape Your Brand Demands
Die cut boxes are defined by their departure from standard rectangular geometry — they use custom steel rule dies to cut corrugated or paperboard into any shape the brand requires. This can mean custom structural shapes like auto-lock bottoms and display configurations, or it can mean completely custom outline shapes that create distinctive shelf presence through geometric uniqueness.
Custom die cutting opens packaging possibilities that standard box styles cannot achieve. The shape of the box can echo the product inside, reference brand symbols, create functional features like display handles or tear strips, or simply differentiate the brand through visual distinctiveness at shelf. Our die engineering team works from your design brief or structural requirements to develop die layouts that achieve your objectives within material constraints.
Custom Die Engineering Process
Custom die development begins with your structural brief or design intent. Our engineers develop a die layout that achieves the desired shape within the technical constraints of the substrate — minimum bend radius, material grain direction, structural performance requirements. The die layout is reviewed in digital form before physical tooling is produced. First-article samples from the die are tested before the full production run begins.
Die Cut Features Beyond Outline Shape
Die cutting is used for much more than outline shapes. Perforations create tear strips, vent slots, and easy-open features. Score lines create fold lines for box construction. Slit cuts create hanging tabs and interlocking panels. Cutouts create window openings and handle holes. A single die can incorporate all of these features simultaneously — the die is a comprehensive cutting and scoring tool, not just a shape cutter.
Custom Packaging for Louisiana's Unique Culture
Louisiana has one of America's most distinctive cultural identities — and its food, music, and artisan products command premium pricing nationally and internationally because of it. Packaging for Louisiana brands must communicate the state's rich cultural heritage: Creole and Cajun culinary traditions, New Orleans' vibrant arts scene, and the authentic provenance of Louisiana's seafood and agricultural products. Generic packaging destroys the Louisiana premium; authentic packaging preserves it.
New Orleans Food and Artisan Brand Packaging
New Orleans is one of America's great food cities, and its food brands — hot sauces, pralines, coffee and chicory, seafood, and artisan spirits — are sold in specialty retail nationwide. Packaging for New Orleans food brands must communicate the city's culinary authenticity and premium quality. We produce food packaging for New Orleans brands with FDA compliance, bold design, and the premium finishes that justify specialty food pricing.
Louisiana Seafood and Agricultural Packaging
Louisiana's Gulf seafood — crawfish, shrimp, oysters, crab — is among the most sought-after in US food markets. Packaging for Louisiana seafood brands must communicate wild-caught Gulf provenance authentically to command the premium pricing these products deserve in national and international markets.
Baton Rouge Industrial and Corporate Packaging
Baton Rouge hosts major petrochemical, healthcare, and university institutions requiring professional packaging for industrial products, marketing materials, and corporate communications.

Die Cut Boxes in Louisiana — FAQs
How much does custom die tooling cost?
Steel rule die tooling for standard packaging sizes ranges from $300-800 for simple shapes. Complex structural dies with multiple features range from $800-2,000+. The die is a one-time investment stored at our facility and reused on every reorder at no additional charge.
How long does custom die development take?
Die engineering and tooling production typically takes 5-7 business days after design approval. This is in addition to the standard production lead time for the printed box run.
