Key Features
Custom Telescope Boxes — Adjustable Depth Packaging for Variable Product Heights
Telescope boxes solve a packaging engineering challenge that fixed-depth boxes cannot: accommodating products of variable height within the same box format. The telescoping lid slides over the outside of the base to whatever depth the product requires, then holds by friction — no closure mechanisms required. This adjustable depth makes telescope boxes ideal for product lines with height variation, archival and storage applications, and flexible packaging programs.
Telescope boxes are used extensively in archival and library applications, pizza box formats for food service, and industrial packaging where variable content height is the norm. In consumer applications, telescope boxes provide a professional, clean presentation for products that vary in height or require a fully enclosed, seamless appearance.
Full Overlap vs Partial Overlap Telescope Boxes
Telescope boxes are produced in full overlap (lid completely covers the base when closed, creating a seamless cylindrical profile) and partial overlap configurations. Full overlap telescope boxes create a uniform rectangular cross-section regardless of the depth setting — the lid and base appear as a single seamless box. Partial overlap configurations expose a portion of the base when the lid is at standard depth.
Archival and Library Applications
Telescope boxes in archival grade materials — acid-free board with lignin-free construction — are the standard storage format for document preservation, artifact storage, and library collections. We produce archival telescope boxes in standard library formats and custom dimensions for institutions requiring precise sizing for their collections.
Custom Packaging for Kansas's Diverse Economy
Kansas is defined by three dominant economic pillars: aerospace and aviation centered in Wichita — the self-proclaimed 'Air Capital of the World' — agriculture anchored by wheat, cattle, and sorghum, and a growing suburban Kansas City economy in Johnson County. Each requires packaging with different technical and aesthetic specifications. Branded Boxes serves all three with expertise built on understanding each sector's specific requirements.
Wichita Aerospace and Aviation Packaging
Wichita is home to Cessna, Beechcraft, Spirit AeroSystems, and a dense supply chain of aerospace component manufacturers. Packaging for aerospace components requires specific performance standards — anti-static materials for sensitive electronics, foam inserts engineered to FAA and customer specifications, and documentation meeting AS9100 aerospace quality management requirements. We produce aerospace-grade packaging for Wichita's aviation sector.
Kansas Agricultural and Food Brand Packaging
Kansas is the nation's leading wheat producer and a major cattle state. Value-added agricultural brands — artisan grain products, specialty beef, wheat-based foods, and Kansas honey — command premium pricing in national markets when packaging communicates the state's agricultural heritage authentically. Kraft board, natural papers, and FSC-certified materials communicate Kansas farm-to-table values.
Overland Park and Johnson County Retail Packaging
Johnson County's affluent suburban communities support a strong retail, healthcare, and professional services economy. Premium retail packaging for Johnson County brands competing in the greater Kansas City market requires quality consistent with Kansas City's sophisticated consumer base.

Telescope Boxes in Kansas — FAQs
How does the telescope box lid stay in place at the desired depth?
The lid stays in place through friction fit between the outer surface of the base and the inner surface of the lid. The fit is engineered with 0.5-1mm clearance — enough for smooth adjustment but with sufficient friction to hold position without a closure mechanism.
Can telescope boxes be used for shipping?
Yes. Telescope boxes in corrugated construction are used for industrial and e-commerce shipping applications. The variable depth allows the same box format to accommodate products of different heights, reducing SKU complexity in packaging inventory.
Are archival telescope boxes available?
Yes. Archival telescope boxes on acid-free, lignin-free board meeting PAT (Photographic Activity Test) standards are available for document preservation and artifact storage applications.
Can telescope boxes be printed?
Yes. Both the lid and base of telescope boxes can be printed with full-color artwork. Printing is applied before assembly for consistent color registration.

Custom telescope boxes start at 100 units. Standard library and archival formats are available with shorter lead times from existing die tooling.
