White Shipping Boxes
White shipping boxes give you a clean, bright parcel without paying for a print run, which is why brands applying their own labels or stickers order them unprinted. The coated liner can still take full color later. It shows handling marks sooner than kraft, though, so anti-scuff film is worth adding when boxes travel unwrapped. Orders start at 100, with shipping included.

White Shipping Boxes Left Plain on Purpose
A plain white box says very little, and for some brands that is exactly the brief. It looks clean on a doorstep, photographs well, and doesn't commit you to artwork you might change next quarter. White shipping boxes are made for that kind of seller: shops that brand with a sticker, a stamp or a printed insert, marketplaces selling many brands under one roof, and new businesses that haven't settled their identity yet. The box is specified with the same board, sizing and fit as any other shipper. What's left out is the print run, along with all the artwork decisions that come before one.
White Shipping Box Board, Liners and Interior Options
The white face comes from a coated liner. For the material itself, see how bright coated stock is made and graded.
| Spec | Options |
|---|---|
| Outer liner | Coated white, unprinted or lightly printed |
| Inner liner | White or brown kraft |
| Flute | B-flute (about 3.2mm), C-flute (about 4mm) or BC double-wall |
| Rating | About 32 ECT single-wall, 44 ECT and up double-wall |
| Size | Cut to your product's dimensions |
| Tolerance | About ±1/16" (1.5mm) |
Because nothing is printed, you can hold one or two sizes in stock and use them across every product that fits inside them, whatever its branding.
Why Some Brands Skip the Print Run Entirely
A printed box locks your artwork in until the stock runs out. A plain white box doesn't, and that flexibility is worth more to some sellers than a logo on every panel. If you sell dozens of products, one white box with a product label replaces a printed design per item. If your branding is still changing, you avoid throwing out boxes with an old logo on them. A sticker or stamp applied at the bench can change with the season at almost no cost. The trade-off is consistency: hand-applied labels drift, and the box itself says nothing about you. That's why white boxes are usually ordered as a plain mailer build, with a flat lid that takes a label squarely.
Labels, Stickers and Light Print on White Shippers
Most white boxes ship blank, but light print is available if you want a little more than a label. A single-color logo on the lid keeps the clean look and costs far less than full coverage. Interior print, such as a one-line message under the lid, adds something the customer sees without changing the outside. If you plan to label the box, leave the lid clear and size the label area to the labels your printer produces. Gloss or matte lamination is possible on the coated face, though on a box meant to look plain it rarely adds much. Free design help covers even a one-logo job, including where to put the logo so a shipping label doesn't land on top of it.
White Shipping Boxes for Multi-SKU Stores and Seasonal Sticker Swaps
Clean white suits brands whose product packaging is already doing the talking, and skincare and makeup sellers often use it as the outer shipper around printed product cartons. Online stores with large catalogs use one or two white sizes for everything and identify the contents with a printed label. Gift shops add a seasonal sticker in December and a different one in spring. Startups use white boxes for their first few hundred orders before committing to a print run. Fulfillment centers handling several client brands keep white boxes as a neutral default that suits any of them.
Ordering Plain White Shipping Boxes
Plain doesn't mean unchecked. On a blank white face, a crushed corner or a misaligned fold is the first thing anyone notices, so the three-stage check on every box matters as much here as on a printed run. You still approve a proof of the structure and size before production, and if the bulk doesn't match it, we reprint at our cost. Production takes 8–12 business days from approval. Rush is available at extra cost and quoted upfront. Shipping is included. The minimum is 100 boxes, the same as any other shipper, and reorders run from the spec we keep on file, so the second batch matches the first.

What brands say about this box
They live there rather than here, where we can't edit them, delete them, or pick which ones you get to see. That is exactly what makes them worth reading.

Does white stock stay clean through a parcel network?
It shows marks more readily than kraft or a dark stock, particularly along the edges. That's the trade for a bright printable surface. If your boxes ship unprotected and appearance matters on arrival, we'd suggest an anti-scuff film over the print.
Can white boxes be printed in full color?
Yes, and white is the best of the three liners for it. Because the coated surface holds ink on top rather than absorbing it, colors stay saturated and detail stays sharp. If accurate brand color matters, this is the stock for it.
Can I have white outside and kraft inside?
Yes. The two liners are specified separately, so a white printable exterior with a kraft interior is a common combination — and it's a good one if you want a clean outside without paying to bleach a surface nobody sees.
How long do white shipping boxes take?
Around 8–12 business days once you approve the proof. Rush is available at a premium we'll quote upfront. Shipping is included, and there are no die, plate or setup fees added to your quote.
Can white boxes ship unprinted?
Yes. Plain white boxes are a common choice for brands applying their own labels or stickers, and they cost less without a print run. You still get the same board options, sizing and 100-box minimum.
