Vial packaging needs to more than just provide a space for your products. The right box can be customized with the size, number, layout, and brand presentation of the vial(s) to provide increased control over the look and function of the completed package.
Custom vial boxes can be developed for single vials, multiple vials and various inside layouts. The boxes can also be customized in various sizes and configurations, such as with inserts or dividers, to accommodate different products and packaging needs.
Select from a variety of box styles, paperboard materials, printing techniques, colors and finishes to design the box for your product and brand. Customization offers greater flexibility than a one-size-fits-all package, whether you’re ordering a simple cardboard box or a more in-depth box featuring your company’s branding.
Depending on the configuration of the vials, various box designs may be required. The right style will depend on the number of vials required, the desired presentation, the opening method and the internal layout.
| Box Style | Suitable For | Customization Options |
| Tuck-End Boxes | Single or multiple vial processing. | Size, artwork, printing |
| Straight Tuck-End | Clean retail-style presentation | Dimensions, graphics, finishes |
| Reverse Tuck-End | Individual product packaging | Artwork and sizing to your requirements. |
| Auto-Lock Bottom | Structured packaging | Dimensions, printing, finishing |
| Boxes With Inserts | Single or multiple vials | Personalized inserts and layouts |
| Boxes With Dividers | Multiple-vial configurations | The distance from the divider and the spacing between dividers. |
For products that require a simple opening/closing mechanism, tuck-end structures offer a simple packaging form. Straight tuck-end and reverse tuck-end constructions can be tailored to various product size and artwork needs.
Vial boxes with dividers can provide spaces within a product package. The layout in the divider varies according to the number of vials and how many sets of vials you wish to have in the box.
Individual or multiple vials can also be organized with custom vial boxes with inserts. The insert may be configured to fit the vial size as well as the internal configuration as desired instead of using a standard opening.
When deciding on packaging dimensions, the capacity of a vial cannot always be the deciding factor. All the factors, including actual vial sizes, number of products, layout and space inside the box, have an impact on the final design.
Vial packaging can be designed for varying vial sizes such as 1ml, 2ml, 3ml vial packaging, 5ml and more bespoke sizes.
| Vial Configuration | Packaging Approach | Insert Option |
| Single vial | A box that fits the product, but is small. | Individual insert |
| 2–3 vials | Custom internal spacing | Fitted insert |
| Multiple vials | Larger internal arrangement | Dividers or multi position insert |
| Custom arrangement | Product-specific dimensions | Custom-shaped insert |
It is possible to use inserts to make individual vials dedicated. The internal layout can be modified to suit the number and pattern of products for multiple products.
For custom vial boxes with inserts, the box can be viewed as a single entity with the interior structure. This results in a more streamlined pack with little space around the products.
Packaging too can also be a means to extend your visual identity beyond your website and other marketing assets. Custom printed boxes for vials can feature all the elements that make your product packaging recognizable.
Depending on your requirements, artwork can include:
Your colors, typography, product information, and other design elements can all be placed inside of the box artwork, with your logo in the mix. Vial boxes can be customized to be printed with a logo for better consistency between products or vial sizes.
The choice of printing technique will be determined by the artwork, order required, material and production specifications. Options may include:
| Printing Method | Potential Application |
| Offset Printing | The packaging needs to be detailed and printed, and the production volume needs to be increased. |
| Digital Printing | Artwork is detailed and appropriately shorter runs. |
| Flexographic Printing | The suitable packaging applications for flexographic production |
| Screen Printing | Designs chosen & specialty applications |
| Rotogravure Printing | High-volume printing applications |
Printing should be chosen based on the specific packaging project, and not just for the sake of using techniques that are not relevant.
Packaging can be a big part of the shelf appearance, product photography or as an extension to the product line.
Some of the options can be:
You can use consistent colours throughout your packaging, which can help give your brand a recognisable presentation, but also leave each of your vial products with its own packaging design.
The material is used to shape the appearance of the package, the print surface and the package structure for cardboard vial boxes. Paperboard will vary according to box style, artwork, structure and presentation.
| Material | Appearance | Suitable For |
| SBS Paperboard | Smooth and clean | Detailed printed packaging |
| FBB Paperboard | Lightweight and versatile | General paperboard packaging |
| Kraft Paperboard | Natural and textured | Minimal/natural appearance decorating. |
| Coated Paperboard | Smooth printing surface | Colourful and detailed painting |
| Recycled Paperboard | Recycled-content option | Relevant recycled-material packaging |
| Rigid Board | Firm and substantial | Rigid premium-style boxes |
SBS and FBB paperboard can provide a smooth surface for printable work and kraft paperboard can provide a natural surface style. If the printing surface is a key component to the desired look, coated paperboard can be used.
Rigid board should not be considered as a board element for all rigid box constructions as it should only be used when required.
The look and feel of your packaging can be altered by finishing. It can come in any one of a variety of materials, and with various box structures, such as:
The right blend can be used to differentiate product lines and ensure consistency of the packaging system.
With custom vial packaging, you have control of the size and shape of the box, inserts, materials, printing and finish of the vial.
