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 Washington's Technology-Driven Economy
Washington State is home to Amazon, Microsoft, Boeing, and Starbucks — four of the world's most consequential brands — giving it a technology and consumer brand DNA that shapes the entire state's packaging market expectations. Seattle's startup ecosystem is one of the world's most active. Washington's cannabis market is one of America's most mature. And the Yakima Valley's wines and Columbia Basin's agriculture create strong specialty food packaging demand. Branded Boxes serves Washington's exceptional economy with matching quality.
Seattle Technology and DTC Brand Packaging
Seattle's technology ecosystem — Amazon, Microsoft, Expedia, Nordstrom, and hundreds of high-growth startups — creates a packaging market that understands brand design, sustainability, and premium consumer experience at the highest level. Amazon's presence has also made Seattle one of the world's most sophisticated e-commerce packaging markets. Premium mailer boxes, sustainable packaging programs, and startup launch packaging for Seattle's tech community from 50 units.
Washington Cannabis Compliance Packaging
Washington was one of the first two states to legalize recreational cannabis, making its cannabis market one of the world's most mature and competitive. Washington LCB-compliant child-resistant packaging with required warning statements for Washington dispensaries and cannabis brands. Premium brand finishes — soft-touch lamination, foil stamping, sustainable materials — are standard in Washington's sophisticated cannabis market.
Washington Wine and Agricultural Packaging
Washington State is the second-largest wine-producing state in the US, and Columbia Valley Cabernets and Rieslings command international premiums. Agricultural packaging for Washington's apples, hops, cherries, and specialty crops creates significant demand for food-safe, brand-forward packaging.

Telescope Boxes in Washington — 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.
