Most brands discover their rigid box supplier is not built for their scale the hard way. At the third reorder, when colour has drifted, lead times have stretched, and compliance documentation does not survive a procurement audit. Kumar Printers was built to be the last rigid box manufacturer and supplier you need to evaluate.
Over 60 years of certified, export-ready rigid box manufacturing, delivering to global brands across pharmaceutical, FMCG, alcobev, personal care, and lifestyle categories.
We manufacture. We export directly. We document everything.
Rigid Box Structures and Formats
As a full-service custom rigid box manufacturer and direct rigid box packaging supplier, every format we produce is engineered to specification from the brief. Nothing comes from a standard range.
Printing and Finishing for Rigid Box Packaging
We deliver luxury rigid box manufacturing and supply services to global brands; our finishing capability is built around precision, consistency, and brand impact. We offer hot foil stamping in metallic and custom shades, 3D embossing and debossing, spot and raised UV, soft-touch, gloss and matte lamination, and specialist gravure printing for distinctive colour and metallic effects.
​
We also engineer functional details such as magnetic closures, custom inserts, ribbon pulls, and window patching at the structural design stage. Each element is tested during sampling to ensure accurate registration, reliable performance, and a consistent finish before production.

MOQ, Sampling, and New Packaging Development
Minimum order quantities for custom rigid boxes start at 1,500 units for formats with complex finishing, multi-process surface treatments, or precision internal fitments. Pricing at multiple quantity tiers is provided on every quote, including the quantity threshold at which full container load freight pricing becomes available on your specific box dimensions.
Free Physical Sampling: Physical sampling on all new rigid box briefs is provided at no cost before any production commitment. Sampling covers structural design, prototype production, golden sample approval, and drop-test evaluation. For export clients, transit trial testing is available on briefs where the distribution chain requires it. Approved samples, locked artwork, and confirmed specifications are kept on file for all active SKUs to ensure subsequent reorders move directly to production.
New Packaging Development at No Cost: Structural design on die-line creation, material and substrate specification, prototype production, finish sampling across foil, UV, lamination, and embossing options, and pre-press colour proof approval are all provided at no cost to all clients on new briefs. This is standard practice, not a promotional offer.
Development timeline for a new custom rigid box brief with new tooling: 5 to 7 weeks from brief to approved golden sample. Reorders on established specifications: 15 to 20 working days from purchase order.

Independent industry recognition through back-to-back PrintWeek Innovative Printer of the Year awards, a 60-year track record as a rigid box supplier to global brands including P&G, Gillette, Glenfiddich, and Grant's, and a certification stack covering ISO 9001:2015, BRC IOP Grade 6, FSC COC, GMI G7, and Sedex that meets the procurement audit requirements of major retail buyers in every market we supply.
3. What finishing options are available on luxury rigid boxes?
We offer hot foil stamping, 3D embossing, debossing, spot UV, raised UV, gloss lamination, matte lamination, soft-touch lamination, gravure printing, metallic inks, magnetic closures, custom die-cut paper inserts, ribbon pulls, and window patching. Multiple finishing techniques are available in combination on a single brief.
4. Do you offer FSC-certified rigid gift boxes?
Yes. FSC Chain of Custody certification covers all paperboard used in our rigid gift box production. FSC-labelled rigid gift boxes with full chain-of-custody documentation are available across all formats, for brands in any market that carry FSC claims on their retail packaging.
5. What is the minimum order quantity for custom rigid boxes?
Minimum order quantities for custom rigid boxes start at 1500 units for formats with complex finishing or multi-process surface treatments. Pricing at multiple quantity tiers is provided on every quote. We confirm MOQ at the brief stage for formats with specific tooling requirements.
6. How do you ensure colour consistency as a rigid box packaging supplier across reorders?
All production runs are under GMI G7 Master Colourspace certification. Approved shade cards and reference samples are confirmed before production begins. Every batch is spectrally tested against the approved standard before dispatch. As a rigid box packaging supplier operating under GMI certification, colour drift between reorders is eliminated at the production level, not managed retrospectively.
