❓ FAQ

What content does LeXiang Knowledge Base share?

LeXiang Knowledge Base covers packaging box encyclopedias, small-batch packaging, digital printing, label customization, and industry packaging knowledge to help brands understand packaging selection and customization processes.

What is small-batch packaging?

Small-batch packaging refers to packaging production with a low minimum order quantity (typically starting from 50 units), leveraging digital printing technology to enable rapid prototyping and personalized customization.

What is the difference between digital printing and traditional printing?

Digital printing does not require plate-making and is suitable for small-batch and multi-SKU production; traditional printing is better suited for large-volume orders, offering lower unit costs but requiring higher minimum order quantities.

What is the typical minimum order quantity for packaging boxes?

LeXiang supports a minimum order quantity of 50 units, ideal for new product trials, holiday-limited editions, and small-batch multi-SKU requirements.

How to choose the appropriate packaging material?

Select based on product characteristics: food items are recommended to use food-grade white cardboard; cosmetics are suggested to use art paper with gold foil stamping; industrial products are best suited for corrugated or kraft paper.
