18pt SBS, label-panel layout300 minimum · 10 to 12 business daysA CBD box is a folding carton sized for a tincture bottle, gummy jar, or topical container, laid out with panel space for the compliance labeling this category typically carries. We produce them on 18pt SBS from 300 units, ready in about 10 to 12 business days after proof.
When to choose it, and when not to
Choose a CBD box when your product needs a structured carton with dedicated panel space for the labeling this category carries, and you want a box that fits your specific bottle or jar exactly rather than a generic size.
Choose a stand-up pouch instead if your product is a topical or edible in flexible packaging rather than a bottle or jar, since the carton format here is built around rigid containers, not flexible fill.

Questions people ask
Do you handle the required compliance labeling and wording?
We lay out the panels with space for whatever labeling text you provide. Confirming the correct required wording, warnings, and QR code or batch information for your product and state is entirely on your side; we don't advise on compliance content.
Can the box include a spot for a QR code linking to a certificate of analysis?
Yes, a printed QR code is straightforward to include on any panel. Just send us the code image or the destination link and we'll place it.
What's the difference between a tuck-top and an auto-lock bottom for this product?
A tuck-top is the simpler, lower-cost closure and works fine for most CBD products. An auto-lock bottom sets up faster on a packing line since the bottom folds into place on its own, so it's worth it if you're filling at volume.
Can I get a smaller box for a sample-size or trial product?
Yes, we can size the carton for a smaller sample bottle or jar. The 300-unit minimum still applies regardless of the box's physical size.
Does the board itself need to be a specific type for this product category?
No, standard 18pt SBS is fine structurally. There's no special material requirement tied to the product category itself; the labeling and compliance side is separate from the board choice.
CBD box or hemp box: which should I choose?
They share a board and a build, so choose by what goes inside. The CBD box is sized for extracts: tincture bottles, gummy jars and topical tins, with panels laid out for the batch code, the QR code to your certificate of analysis and the label text CBD products usually carry. The hemp box is for hemp itself: flower jars, pre-roll packs, hemp seed oil, hemp tea and hemp foods, where the panels carry sourcing and ingredient text instead. Both start at 300 units in 10 to 12 business days after proof. If one line covers both, one carton size can serve both with a variant label.
