Material and thickness selection of plastic clear pillow boxes
We usually choose to use PVC, PET or PP material to produce pillow box
PVC is not an environmentally friendly material, but PVC is flame retardant and weather resistant. The surface hardness is high, compared to the abrasion resistance. The printing paper is high and can highly reproduce the printed color.
PET is an environmentally friendly material that is biodegradable and recyclable. PET is a biodegradable, recyclable and environmentally friendly material. In recent years, many customers pay more and more attention to environmental protection, so PET material is becoming more and more popular. In addition, PET material has very high transparency, so it is suitable for making transparent pillow gift boxes.
PP material is also an environmentally friendly material, biodegradable and recyclable, the transparency of PP is slightly lower than PVC and PET. But the flexibility is better, mostly used for cosmetic boxes. It is also commonly used to make frosted surface. Frosted pillow boxes are often made of PP material. If you want a translucent frosted effect, you can choose PP material.
Recommended thickness of PVC and PET material is 12# (0.30MM) PP material is usually recommended 16# (0.4MM).

Paper pillow boxes VS clear pillow boxes
Although many plastic materials have been recycled and degradable. However, if you pursue better compostable materials. At this time, I suggest you choose paper pillow boxes.
Kraft paper pillow box
In addition to clear plastic pillow boxes, we can also provide paper pillow boxes. The paper pillow box can be made of kraft paper or cardboard, which is more suitable for packaging some simple products, which will match very well. Paper is an environmentally friendly material, so many customers choose to order custom kraft pillow boxes. However, paper is not waterproof, and its anti-compression effect is not as strong as plastic. If your product is relatively fragile, we recommended choosing plastic pillow boxes with environmentally friendly PET materials.
Paper is better than plastic for manual operation, there are many pillow box templates available online. Many people can make pillow boxes by themselves based on templates
Pillow boxes with clear window
gold pillow boxes and silver pillow boxes
If you want your packaging to stand out on shelves and many products, the gold and silver pillow box is definitely a creative idea. It can be completely covered with gold and silver, or it can print colors on laser gold foil, which is more dazzling.
The structure of the pillow packaging boxes
The structure of the pillow packaging box is relatively singleness, you can choose whether you need to increase the hanger hole/ hook structure. If you need to put the goods on the shelf for sale, we recommend that you add a hanger hole on the top or the side of the box. If your pillow box is large, you can custom with a handle.
Because the surface of the pillow box has a curvature and is not flat, it can’t be placed upright like other boxes. But you can use the hanger hole at the top to hang it on the shelf to save more space. If you want to use a pillow box to wrap a gift, you don’t need to add a hanger hole. You can tie the pillow box with a ribbon to make a perfect gift box. If your product is clothes, what you need is to customize large pillow boxes with handles, which can be convenient for customers to carry.

F.A.Q.
Problems worthy of attention in customizing transparent plastic boxes
- There are two main reasons:
The design of the size ratio is wrong, because both ends of the plastic pillow box are curved, and the ratio of the curvature needs to be adjusted according to the needs of different sizes to ensure easy folding. The wrong proportion design is the main reason for the difficulty of folding, and even the uneven force will cause the corners to crack. - The depth of the fold line indentation is not uniform, because the density of the plastic material is relatively large, and the production time requires a relatively large design accuracy and experience. If during the cutting process, the pressing depths of different areas in the same crease are different, the force will be uneven during the folding time, and the two sides will not fit tightly and be twisted.
- Talk to our sales Engineer
The direct reason why the plastic material is not transparent enough is that the raw materials used are inferior products, and the light transmittance of the material itself is relatively low. Another situation is that, in order to reduce costs, some manufacturers use informal recycling plastic processing procedures, causing foreign matter to be mixed in and reducing transparency.
The problem of scratches on the surface of transparent plastic materials is fatal. The reason why we like to use transparent pillow box packaging is that consumers can intuitively feel the goods inside. Scratches and scratches will not only reduce the transparency of the material but will also greatly affect the sensory of the entire packaging, which will have a negative impact on sales.
Avoid scratches and white spots. Production plants must protect surface cleanliness and material surfaces. The first step is to add a protective film or scratch-resistant coating on the transparent material.
If the surface of the packaging box provided by your supplier has no protective film or anti-scratch coating on you, then under normal circumstances, the cleanness and scratches of the plastic box cannot be guaranteed.
Yes, there is no problem. We can not only customize the size, print, and emboss on the surface. At the same time, it is also an international transportation expert, you only need to sit at home and wait for the goods.
Cracking of pillow cases is caused by improper selection of materials or poor quality of materials. In addition, if the material is too hard, it can’t be used to make a pillow box because the lid of a pillow box has a downward curve. If the lid is too hard, it will be difficult to close the box.
The assembly of a regular pillow case package is very simple, just put the pillow case on and close the lid and you’re done. The most important thing here is to close the lid with a semi-circular slit first. When you want to open the inner lid next time, you can easily use the gap to open the lid.
If the pillow case is difficult to assemble, it is most likely the result of improper or poor quality materials. Also, if the structure of the pillow case is not well made, it can be difficult to assemble because it is not coordinated.
When the material of the pillow case is thicker, assembly can be even more difficult. There is a solution though, and that is to add a soft crease when making the pillow box. It will make the box easier to fold. Regardless of the type of plastic box, adding a soft crease process can save a lot of assembly time.
Generally, the box bonding is completed by an automatic gluing machine, so the glue overflow problem rarely occurs. If you have unfortunately purchased a batch of boxes with overflowing glue, you will find that using tap water will not clean the glue on the boxes. Glue can’t be removed by cleaning and erasing, once the pillow box has overflowed glue, it can only be scrapped. So you need to choose a supplier with better quality control.
