Why Choose Our Corrugated Boxes
Custom Corrugated Boxes That Protect Products and Build Brands
When your products need to survive warehousing, freight, last-mile delivery, and the customer's doorstep — corrugated boxes are the engineering solution. Branded Boxes manufactures custom corrugated packaging using A, B, C, E, and F-flute board in single, double, and triple-wall configurations. Each specification is selected based on your product's weight, fragility, and stacking requirements.
Corrugated That Markets as Hard as It Protects
The biggest shift in corrugated packaging over the last decade has been the rise of brand-printed shipping boxes. Today's brands understand that the corrugated box is the first physical touchpoint with an online customer — and they're investing in print quality to match. Our high-definition flexographic and digital printing brings your brand to life on corrugated board with crisp lines and accurate colors.
Construction Options
- Single-wall B-flute: Standard e-commerce and retail shipping
- Single-wall C-flute: Heavier consumer products
- Double-wall BC-flute: Industrial and fragile goods
- E-flute: Retail-ready corrugated with superior print surface
- Triple-wall: Bulk industrial shipping applications
Flute Selection: The Foundation of Corrugated Performance
Choosing the right flute is the most important corrugated decision you'll make. B-flute (3mm) is the e-commerce standard — strong, light, and cost-efficient. C-flute (4mm) handles heavier products with superior stacking strength. E-flute (1.5mm) delivers the smoothest print surface for retail-quality graphics on corrugated. Double-wall BC-flute combines both for maximum protection. Our packaging engineers help you identify the right specification for your product and shipping environment.
Printing Technologies for Corrugated Packaging
Corrugated printing has evolved dramatically. Our flexographic presses deliver consistent color across large runs at speed, while our digital corrugated press handles short-run and variable data jobs without tooling costs. Both produce sharp, vibrant results that turn your shipping box into a marketing asset. Water-based inks are standard across our corrugated production, keeping your supply chain sustainable.
RSC, Die-Cut, and Mailer Box Styles
Regular Slotted Containers (RSC) are the cost-efficient workhorse for shipping. Die-cut boxes enable custom shapes, auto-lock bottoms, and display configurations. Mailer boxes with self-locking designs eliminate tape at the packing station while creating a premium unboxing experience. We produce all three — and engineer the right style for your fulfillment workflow.
Custom Packaging for Maine's Premium Brands
Maine has built one of America's most powerful state-of-origin brand premiums — 'Made in Maine' commands significant price premiums for lobster, blueberries, maple syrup, craft beer, and artisan goods in national markets. Packaging that authentically communicates Maine provenance is not just a nice-to-have for Maine brands — it is a core component of their pricing strategy. Branded Boxes produces packaging that makes Maine's origin premium visible and credible.
Maine Lobster and Seafood Packaging
Maine lobster is arguably the most recognized seafood product in the United States, commanding premium prices in specialty retail, high-end restaurants, and direct-to-consumer markets nationally. Packaging for Maine lobster and seafood brands must communicate the state's pristine ocean environment, sustainable harvesting practices, and authentic Maine heritage. We produce seafood brand packaging for Maine fisheries competing in premium national and international markets.
Portland's Artisan Food and Craft Scene
Portland, Maine has emerged as one of America's great food cities — its concentration of James Beard award-winning chefs, artisan food producers, and craft breweries creates demand for premium packaging that matches the culinary quality of the products. We produce premium food packaging for Portland's artisan brands with kraft materials, natural aesthetics, and the premium finishes appropriate for specialty food retail.
Maine Tourism and Artisan Gift Packaging
Maine's tourism industry drives significant demand for gift packaging — the state's artisan crafts, specialty foods, and branded merchandise require premium packaging that communicates Maine's natural beauty and craft quality to visitors and gift recipients across the country.

Corrugated Boxes in Maine — FAQs
What ECT rating do I need for my corrugated boxes?
ECT (Edge Crush Test) measures stacking strength. A 32 ECT single-wall box handles most standard e-commerce applications. Heavier or stackable products benefit from 44 ECT or double-wall construction. We'll recommend the right rating based on your product weight and pallet configuration.
Can you print full color on corrugated boxes?
Yes. We offer high-definition flexographic printing for large runs and digital printing for short runs. E-flute provides the smoothest surface for photographic-quality printing. B-flute and C-flute deliver solid color and line graphics with excellent results.
What is the minimum order for custom corrugated boxes?
Minimum orders start at 50 units for standard sizes with digital printing. Flexographic printing runs typically start at 500 units due to plate costs. We'll recommend the right process based on your quantity.
Do corrugated boxes qualify as sustainable packaging?
Yes. Corrugated is one of the most sustainable packaging formats — over 90% of corrugated produced in the USA contains recycled fiber, and it's recovered for recycling at a higher rate than any other packaging material.
Can corrugated boxes be used for retail display?
Absolutely. E-flute corrugated with litho-laminated printing is a popular choice for point-of-purchase displays and shelf-ready packaging. The rigid structure holds its shape on retail floors and shelves without bowing or collapsing.

Yes. We ship to all Maine cities. Ground delivery to Portland is 2-3 business days from production.
