In-House Production
Turn every press send-out, influencer delivery, or product-launch handoff into a coordinated brand encounter that feels considered before the recipient reaches the first item. PR recipients often move through several deliveries, campaign messages, and product samples in a short time. A custom rigid PR kit brings your products, printed story, and campaign cues into one visible system. Proportions, wrapped surfaces, branded panels, finishes, and an organized interior work together to signal the standard you want associated with the launch. That value becomes clear at delivery, during the first opening, and as each item is lifted out, helping the message feel easier to follow and the collection feel intentionally connected. We help you shape a rigid PR kit around the contents, the campaign objective, and the recipient journey. The goal is a box that introduces the launch with confidence, keeps the brand recognizable across exterior and interior surfaces, and gives each product a purposeful place within the overall story. That result is supported through structure and proportion planning, rigid greyboard and selected wrap materials, exterior and interior printing, purposeful finishes, and foam or paper-based inserts. Artwork checking, dieline support, digital proofing, and production planning connect the creative idea to an approved box specification, so you can move from campaign concept to a coordinated physical kit with clearer decisions at each stage.

MATERIALS THAT SET THE TONE
Match the Structure to the Campaign Journey
A PR kit should follow the way its contents need to be introduced, not force every campaign into the same opening. Some launches need a broad first view, some benefit from a staged reveal, and others require separate spaces for products, samples, or printed collateral. The right rigid format helps the recipient understand the kit quickly while supporting the level of formality, portability, and access the campaign requires. Choose the route by considering item count, product shape, insert needs, recipient context, and the order in which the story should unfold.
➜

Customize NowBUILD THE PHYSICAL IMPRESSION
Choose a Material Character That Fits the Campaign
The material should establish the campaign’s physical character before print or finishing begins. Rigid greyboard can give a multi-item kit the substantial, composed feel expected from a planned launch or high-value handoff. The wrap then shapes how that structure is interpreted: a smooth printed paper can support crisp campaign graphics, while linen, textured, colored, foil, or pearlescent wraps can create a more tactile or distinctive identity. Select the combination by the brand standard, recipient context, handling needs, and the impression the kit should carry from delivery through opening.
Smooth Printed Paper Wraps
A smooth or coated paper wrap gives detailed graphics, photography, color systems, and campaign messaging a controlled surface. It supports launches where visual clarity and close brand consistency matter most.
Linen and Specialty Wraps
Linen, textured, colored, foil, or pearlescent wraps can make the material itself part of the brand signal. Choose them when tactile character or a distinctive surface should support the campaign before added finishes are considered.
Rigid Greyboard for Presence
Use rigid greyboard when the kit needs firm physical character and a unified base for several products or campaign components. The structure can help the collection feel deliberately assembled rather than loosely grouped.
CAMPAIGN IDENTITY IN VIEW
Make the Campaign Recognizable From Every Angle
A PR kit must make the campaign understandable before the recipient studies every item. Use printed design to connect the master brand, launch theme, product names, and supporting information across the lid, sides, base, and relevant interior surfaces. Full-color, CMYK, Pantone or spot-color, digital, and offset printing provide practical routes for building that system, while inside printing can continue the message after opening. The business value is a kit that feels connected across its touchpoints and helps recipients see how each product belongs within the same campaign.
- Keep the master brand visible
- Give each launch its own system
- Connect outer and inner messaging
- Organize products with printed cues
- Build recipient-specific campaign versions
- Stay consistent across handoff moments
SURFACE SIGNALS WITH PURPOSE
Direct Attention to the Campaign’s Key Message
Finishes should help the recipient read the campaign, not compete with it. A matte, gloss, or soft-touch surface can set the overall mood before selective details guide the eye toward the brand name, launch message, or hero product. Foil, embossing, debossing, spot UV, and raised effects are most useful when they create a clear order of attention or add tactile weight to a chosen element. Use contrast selectively so the kit communicates intention rather than decoration for its own sake.
-
Set the Campaign ToneMatte or soft-touch treatment can support a calmer, more considered identity, while gloss can strengthen color energy and surface clarity. The right overall treatment should match the campaign rather than follow a generic luxury formula.
-
Give Key Details Priority
Foil, embossing, debossing, spot UV, or raised effects can bring selected names, marks, or messages forward. Concentrating the effect helps the recipient understand what matters first without overwhelming the rest of the artwork.
-
Separate Special Editions
Selective finish changes can distinguish a launch, event, or limited campaign from the core brand system. Keep familiar brand cues in place so the edition feels special without becoming visually disconnected.
PLAN THE REVEAL INSIDE
Turn Product Arrangement Into a Clear Campaign Story
The inside of a PR kit should make the campaign easier to explore, not simply hold the contents. When products, samples, accessories, and printed materials arrive in a clear arrangement, the recipient can understand the collection without searching through a loose assortment. Interior printing can preserve the brand context after the lid opens, while foam or paper-based inserts, dividers, trays, and ribbon pulls can organize the reveal and support product lift-out. The result is a guided introduction that carries the campaign idea from the first view to individual product discovery.
-
Continue: Keep the Brand Context Present
Continue relevant colors, artwork, or short campaign messaging inside the box so the visual identity established on the exterior remains active when the kit opens.
-
Guide: Make Every Item Easy to Read
Use foam or paper-based inserts, dividers, and trays to give products and supporting pieces purposeful positions. Clear separation helps the recipient see what belongs together and what to explore next.
-
Reward: Control the Order of Discovery
Plan what appears first, what is revealed beneath or beside it, and how each item is removed. Ribbon pulls and considered spacing can support a smoother, more deliberate discovery sequence.

Plan Your Rigid PR Kit With Fewer Unknowns
A successful rigid PR kit begins with clear decisions about contents, fit, campaign use, artwork, quantity, and timing. The planning steps below help turn a creative concept into an approved production specification without inventing sizes or forcing the campaign into a standard box.
-
Plan the Contents Before the Outer Size
Start with everything the recipient should find inside the kit: products, inner containers, samples, accessories, printed cards, booklets, or other campaign materials. Record the length, width, and height of each item, including any wrapping or retail packaging that will remain in place. Irregular shapes should be measured at their widest, longest, and tallest points. Next, define the pack count and intended arrangement. Decide which item should lead the reveal, which pieces need separate positions, and how much removal clearance the recipient will need. This information allows the outer dimensions, insert layout, and opening direction to be planned around the real contents rather than an estimated box size. When product specifications may change, identify that early so the structure is not approved against an outdated sample.
-
Match the Structure to the Campaign Journey
Choose the box style by how the kit will be packed, handed off, received, opened, and explored. A magnetic or book-style format may suit a connected cover-to-interior story. A two-piece box can support a broad top-down view. A drawer format can stage discovery, while a handled format may be useful when the recipient will carry the kit at an event or meeting. The insert decision belongs in the same conversation. Foam can create dedicated cavities for products and components. Cardstock, paperboard, kraft, corrugated, or cardboard inserts, dividers, and trays can organize groups of items and printed materials. The selected route should reflect product shape, weight distribution, access, and campaign sequence—not style preference alone.
-
Build Artwork Around the Approved Dieline
Prepare the visual system only after the structure and dimensions are confirmed. A dieline or template is available for the approved format, with support for artwork checking, resizing, bleed, and safe zones. Accepted production files include AI, PDF, PSD, and EPS. Plan artwork by surface: lid or cover, sides, base, and any relevant inside panels. Mark the primary campaign message, master-brand elements, product identifiers, and supporting information so each has a clear role. Keep essential text and logos within the approved safe area, extend backgrounds through the bleed, and check that interior content follows the real opening orientation. Buyer-supplied legal, regulated, or required information remains the buyer’s responsibility.
-
Review the Proof Before Production
A digital proof is available for every approved order. Use it to check the final size reference, panel orientation, artwork position, colors identified in the file, insert layout, and the relationship between exterior and interior graphics. Production should not begin until the artwork and structure are approved. A digital proof is not a physical prototype. A physical prototype may be available for a qualifying bulk or wholesale project, and its cost may be adjusted into the resulting order where approved. This should be confirmed for the specific project rather than treated as an unrestricted free sample.
-
Set Quantity, Schedule and Distribution
Supported rigid PR kit orders may start from 25 boxes, including rigid formats with foam inserts. That starting quantity can still include relevant custom sizing, wrap, printing, finishing, and insert choices where they suit the approved structure and production specification. Per-unit pricing generally improves as quantity increases, with more visible differences often appearing around 500 units; the actual quotation depends on the final design and order details. Production normally takes 4–6 business days after payment, final artwork approval and structure confirmation. Production-ready jobs are generally planned to print and ship within 7 business days. Shipping transit time is separate, while complex multi-design orders may require a separately confirmed schedule. Build distribution into the quote request. The same order can be shipped to multiple addresses, which can support press, influencer, client, or event programs. Provide quantities by destination and any delivery requirements early so packing, labeling, shipment planning, and the project schedule can be reviewed together. Because rigid jobs require their full production process, confirm any deadline before approving the order rather than assuming a rush schedule. The clearest quotation comes from a complete content list, product measurements, preferred arrangement, campaign artwork status, quantity, destination plan, and required in-hand date. With those inputs, the team can recommend an appropriate structure and identify any decisions that must be resolved before approval.
RIGID PR KIT QUESTIONS
Answers Before You Plan, Print, and Order
Yes. A rigid PR kit can be planned around products, samples, accessories, cards, booklets, and other campaign pieces that belong in the same send-out. Foam inserts can create dedicated product cavities, while cardstock, paperboard, kraft, corrugated, or cardboard inserts, dividers, and trays can separate groups of items. The final structure depends on the actual contents, arrangement, weight distribution, and removal clearance, so provide a complete item list and measurements before sizing begins.
Yes. Exterior and interior surfaces can carry coordinated but different artwork, allowing the outside to introduce the campaign and the inside to continue the message, identify products, or guide discovery. Full-color, CMYK, Pantone or spot-color, digital, and offset printing are available routes, depending on the approved specification. Plan each surface on the final dieline so the artwork follows the real opening direction and remains correctly positioned after the box is assembled.
The best style depends on how the recipient should meet the campaign. Magnetic and book-style boxes support a connected cover-to-interior story. Two-piece boxes can create a broad top-down reveal, while drawer formats introduce the contents in stages. Handle formats may suit event or meeting handoffs, and window formats can preview a selected item. Share the contents, recipient context, packing method, and desired reveal so the structure can be recommended around the actual use.
Yes. Supported rigid PR kit orders may start from 25 boxes, including rigid formats with foam inserts. At that starting quantity, relevant custom sizing, wrap materials, exterior or interior printing, finishes, and insert choices can remain available where they suit the approved structure and production specification. This gives a smaller brand room to prepare a focused launch, media send-out, or influencer program without defaulting to a generic stock box or committing to a much larger first run.
Start by measuring every product and any inner container, retail pack, or protective wrapping that will remain inside the kit. Record length, width, and height, and measure irregular items at their widest, longest, and tallest points. Then confirm pack count, preferred arrangement, insert type, opening direction, and the clearance needed to lift each item out. The outer box and insert should be developed from those inputs; exact dimensions should not be guessed before the full configuration is reviewed.
AI, PDF, PSD, and EPS files are accepted for production preparation. Dieline or template support, artwork checking, resizing, bleed guidance, and safe-zone assistance are available for the approved structure. A digital proof is available for every approved order, giving you a final review point for panel orientation, artwork placement, and the relationship between exterior and interior graphics. Production should begin only after the artwork and structure are approved. A digital proof should not be confused with a physical prototype.
Production normally takes 4–6 business days after payment, final artwork approval, and structure confirmation. Production-ready jobs are generally planned to print and ship within 7 business days. Shipping transit time is separate, and a complex order with several designs may need a separately confirmed schedule. Share the required in-hand date, design count, quantity, and destination plan early so the production and shipping stages can be reviewed without presenting the timing as guaranteed delivery.
Yes. The same order can be shipped to multiple addresses, which can support press lists, influencer groups, client programs, or event destinations. Provide the quantity for each address, recipient or labeling requirements, and any timing priorities during planning. Multi-address shipping affects packing and distribution details, while shipping transit remains separate from production time. A complete destination list helps the team review the quotation and schedule before the project moves into production.
