Key Features
Custom Mailer Boxes — The Unboxing Format That Built the DTC Revolution
The mailer box is the format that redefined what packaging could mean for direct-to-consumer brands. Before the mailer box, e-commerce packaging was purely utilitarian — brown boxes that protected products in transit and nothing more. The mailer box changed that: a self-locking corrugated box printed inside and outside, creating a brand experience that starts when the customer sees their doorstep delivery and continues through the reveal of every product inside.
Our mailer boxes are produced on B-flute or E-flute corrugated board with full inside and outside printing. The self-locking closure design requires no tape, speeds fulfillment, and creates a clean, premium presentation. Tear-strip options add an easy-open mechanism that customers appreciate.
Inside Printing: The Brand Impression at Peak Excitement
The inside of a mailer box is seen by your customer at the moment of peak excitement — when they first open their delivery. This is the moment when brand impressions are formed, when social sharing decisions are made, when repeat purchase intent is created. Printing the inside of your mailer box with brand colors, messaging, product context, or artwork maximizes the brand value of this pivotal moment.
Flute Selection: B vs E for Mailer Applications
B-flute (3mm) is the standard for most mailer box applications — it provides strong protection-to-weight ratio and good printing surface for most artwork styles. E-flute (1.5mm) is thinner and lighter, reducing box weight and dimensional weight carrier charges for lightweight products, while providing a superior print surface for detailed, photographic-quality artwork. We help brands select the right flute based on product weight, protection requirements, and artwork complexity.

Mailer Boxes in Alaska — FAQs
What is the difference between B-flute and E-flute mailer boxes?
B-flute is 3mm thick and provides stronger protection for heavier products. E-flute is 1.5mm, lighter, and has a smoother surface for higher-quality printing. E-flute reduces box weight and DIM weight carrier charges for lightweight products. Most products ship well in B-flute; fragile or heavy items benefit from B-flute or double-wall construction.
How does the self-locking closure work?
Self-locking mailer boxes use interlocking dust flap panels that tuck into each other when the box is closed, creating a secure closure without tape. The geometry of the closure distributes force across the full box width, preventing the lid from popping open during transit.
Can mailer boxes include a tear strip for easy opening?
Yes. A perforated tear strip along the box opening creates an easy-open mechanism that customers appreciate, particularly for subscription brands where customers open a new box every month. Tear strips are engineered for clean, one-motion removal.
