💬 Customer Needs
A medical enterprise mainly engages in R&D and production of disposable medical consumables, covering various specifications of catheter and tubing products. Due to the large variety of products but low demand per SKU, the client's original plate-making production model could not adapt to the flexible needs of new product trial sales and multi-SKU inventory preparation. The client needed a small-batch packaging solution that could control packaging costs while ensuring product protection and appearance quality.
💡 Solution
In response to the client's multi-SKU, small-batch needs, Lexiang recommended a combined solution of lock-bottom boxes and self-locking boxes. Lock-bottom boxes are integrally formed through die-cutting and creasing, ready to use without gluing, suitable for rapid packaging operations. Self-locking boxes have a built-in locking structure, allowing the lid to open and close repeatedly, convenient for warehouse management and terminal access.
✅ Project Results
Color boxes for each SKU are independently designed according to product dimensions, achieving precise packaging by specification. The printed information on the box surface is clear, with unified label positions, facilitating warehouse management and product traceability. The small-batch delivery solution allows the client to flexibly replenish stock based on actual sales, reducing inventory backlog.

❓ FAQ
What are the material requirements for medical consumables packaging boxes?
Medical consumables packaging boxes usually use full white F flute corrugated board or white cardboard, requiring clean materials, no odor, and smooth surface suitable for printing. If direct product contact is involved, compliance with relevant hygiene requirements must be confirmed. Lexiang can provide small-batch packaging box customization services that meet industry requirements.
What is the difference between lock-bottom boxes and self-locking boxes?
Lock-bottom boxes are formed through die-cutting with interlocking tabs, requiring no glue at the bottom, suitable for rapid packaging operations. Self-locking boxes have a locking structure, allowing the lid to open and close repeatedly with good sealing, convenient for access and storage. Both are folding box types, shipped flat after die-cutting, saving storage space.
Can multiple specifications of consumables be produced together?
Yes. Digital printing requires no plate-making. Each specification can be independently laid out and produced simultaneously, without sharing plate costs. Multiple SKUs can be completed in the same production cycle with unified delivery for more efficient management.
What is the minimum order quantity for medical consumables color boxes?
Lexiang supports small-batch customization. The specific MOQ depends on box type, size, and material. Folding box types like lock-bottom boxes and self-locking boxes have cost advantages in small-batch production, suitable for new product trials and multi-SKU inventory scenarios.
Can product information and barcodes be printed on the packaging?
Yes. Through digital printing, product names, specifications, batch numbers, and other information can be directly printed on color boxes, while barcode and QR code generation is also supported. Label information can be different for each version to meet multi-SKU management needs.
How long does it take from confirming the solution to getting samples?
Digital printing requires no plate-making, so samples can be produced quickly after file confirmation. The prototyping cycle depends on box complexity and process requirements. Lexiang will complete prototyping delivery according to the agreed timeline.
Can these color boxes withstand logistics transportation?
Full white F flute corrugated board has good cushioning and compression resistance, suitable for medical consumables logistics environments. If enhanced protection is needed, inner lining structures or outer boxes can be added. Lexiang can provide customized solutions based on product weight and transportation method.
What are the considerations for medical device labels?
Medical device labels must include statutory information such as product name, model/specification, batch number, expiration date, production date, manufacturer, and registration certificate number. They must be clear, durable, and not easily detached. Lexiang has mature experience in medical label production and can provide label solutions that meet industry standards.
Does the packaging surface need moisture-proof treatment?
Matte lamination can effectively improve the moisture-proof and wear-resistant properties of packaging boxes, protecting the printed surface and extending packaging lifespan. For medical consumables moisture-proof needs during storage and transportation, lamination is a practical surface treatment option.
How are packaging box dimensions determined for different specifications of consumables?
Based on the product dimensions, quantity, and protection requirements of each consumable, the inner cavity dimensions of each box type are designed to ensure products fit and stay fixed inside, reducing transportation shaking. Lexiang provides packaging structure design services, with prototyping confirmation to ensure each specification's packaging is suitable.
