Question 2

What is the minimum order quantity for custom packaging?

Accepted Answer

Our minimum order quantities vary depending on the product type and complexity of customization. For most standard gift boxes and paper bags, we typically require a minimum order of 500-1,000 units, though this can vary based on the specific product specifications and finishing requirements.

For simpler products with standard sizes and minimal customization, we can sometimes accommodate smaller orders starting from 300 units. More complex products with custom die-cuts, special finishes, or unique structural designs may require higher minimums of 1,000-2,000 units to ensure cost-effectiveness in production.

We understand that startups and small businesses may need smaller quantities initially, so we offer sample programs where you can order prototypes and small batches before committing to larger production runs. This allows you to test designs, verify quality, and gather customer feedback before scaling up.

For large-volume orders exceeding 10,000 units, we offer significant volume discounts and priority production scheduling. Contact our sales team to discuss your specific requirements and we will provide a detailed quotation based on your product specifications and order quantity.

Question 3

How long does production and delivery take for custom orders?

Accepted Answer

Standard production time for custom packaging orders is typically 15-25 business days from artwork approval to shipment. This timeline includes material preparation, printing, die-cutting, assembly, quality inspection, and packing. Rush orders can be accommodated in 10-15 business days depending on production capacity and order complexity.

The design and pre-production phase usually takes an additional 3-7 business days, during which our design team creates production-ready artwork, prepares printing plates, and manufactures a pre-production sample for your approval. We strongly recommend reviewing the pre-production sample carefully, as changes after production begins can significantly impact timelines and costs.

Shipping time depends on your location and preferred method of transport. Sea freight to the United States typically takes 20-30 days, while air freight can deliver in 5-7 days at a higher cost. We work with established logistics partners to provide door-to-door delivery service with full tracking capabilities.

For recurring orders, we maintain customer specifications on file, which can reduce lead times by 5-7 days on subsequent orders. We recommend planning 6-8 weeks in advance for your first order and 4-6 weeks for repeat orders to ensure smooth production and delivery schedules.

Question 4

What materials are used in Ibis Packaging products?

Accepted Answer

We use a wide range of premium packaging materials carefully selected for quality, durability, and visual appeal. Our primary materials include rigid board (1.5mm-3mm thickness), corrugated cardboard (E-flute, B-flute, AB-flute), kraft paper (120gsm-350gsm), art paper (128gsm-300gsm), specialty paper, and food-grade materials for food packaging applications.

For gift boxes and premium packaging, we typically use high-quality greyboard or MDF board wrapped with printed art paper or specialty paper, creating a rigid structure with a luxurious finish. Surface treatments include matte and gloss lamination, soft-touch coating, hot foil stamping in gold, silver, or custom colors, embossing, debossing, and spot UV varnish.

Our paper bags are produced from kraft paper or art paper with reinforced handles made from twisted paper, cotton rope, or ribbon, depending on the product tier and intended use. Food packaging products are manufactured using FDA-approved food-contact materials with appropriate barrier properties to maintain freshness and safety.

All our materials are sourced from established suppliers and undergo rigorous quality testing for consistency, printability, and structural performance. We also offer eco-friendly options including FSC-certified paper, recycled materials, and biodegradable packaging solutions to support your sustainability initiatives.

Question 5

Does Ibis Packaging offer design services for custom packaging?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we provide comprehensive design and artwork services to help bring your packaging vision to life. Our experienced design team can work from your existing brand guidelines, rough concepts, or start from scratch to develop packaging designs that align with your brand identity and product requirements.

Our design services include structural design with 3D mockups, graphic design and artwork creation, dieline preparation for production, color matching and print proofing, and material selection consultation. We use industry-standard design software and can work with files in AI, PSD, PDF, CDR, and other common formats.

We provide complimentary basic design services for orders meeting our minimum quantity requirements. This includes creating a production-ready dieline, adapting your existing artwork to our production specifications, and producing a digital proof for your review. Advanced design services including original graphic design, product photography integration, and complex structural engineering may incur additional design fees.

Throughout the design process, we maintain open communication and provide regular updates, ensuring the final product meets your expectations. We also offer physical prototyping services so you can evaluate the look, feel, and functionality of your custom packaging before committing to full production.

Question 6

What quality certifications does Ibis Packaging hold?

Accepted Answer

Ibis Packaging maintains several international quality certifications that demonstrate our commitment to manufacturing excellence and regulatory compliance. Our primary certifications include ISO 9001 for quality management systems, REACH compliance for material safety within the European market, and RoHS compliance ensuring our products meet restrictions on hazardous substances.

Our ISO 9001 certification covers our entire manufacturing process from material sourcing through production, quality inspection, and delivery. This systematic approach to quality management ensures consistent product quality, continuous improvement, and customer satisfaction across all order types and volumes.

Beyond formal certifications, we implement comprehensive quality control procedures including incoming material inspection, in-process quality checks, final product inspection using AQL sampling standards, and pre-shipment verification.
