Box Templates & Structural Box Styles
If you want smart, no-nonsense ideas to make your packaging stand out and actually work for your business, you’re exactly where you need to be. Here’s how our box templates at Healey Packaging can help you plan smarter, faster, and more cost-effectively.
Why Box Templates Matter?
Before any printing or gluing, packaging needs structure. Templates (also known as dielines) are the blueprint that makes your box:
- Fit its contents perfectly — whether it’s a single slice, bulk pack, or bespoke shape
- Stand up through handling and transit — no crushed corners or warped folds
- Print beautifully — ensuring logos and artwork sit exactly where they should
It’s all about avoiding surprises — a poorly interpreted template can mean the difference between perfect packaging and a production headache.
Meet Our Most Popular Styles
Here are a few key styles we often customise for UK brands:
1. Straight Tuck End (STE)
It’s a classic, no-fuss design with tuck-in flaps at both ends — easy to use, budget-friendly, and great for lightweight products that don’t need heavy-duty support.
2. Auto-Lock Bottom
Lifts open and locks into place — great for heavier contents as you build the bottom as you fold it.
3. Lid & Base
Also known as set-up boxes. Separate lid and base (like a cake box) that work well for premium items or gifting.
4. Reverse Tuck End (RTE)
Similar to STE but the flaps tuck the opposite way, helping prevent accidental opening.
5. Snaps-Shut / Flip-Top
Convenient for re-sealing — great for subscription boxes or products that need a second look.
How Healey’s Templates Make Your Life Easier?
- Starter files in Illustrator or CAD — just drop your artwork in
- Smart folding guides and scoring lines — to prevent cracking at folds
- 3D mock-ups on request — handy when you’re trying new sizes or complex shapes
- Templates that work for print runs and automation — you can scale from short runs to full production
Choose the Right Style for Your Brand
Here are a few ways to decide:
- Stand-up display (e.g. position on shelves)? Try lid & base or auto-lock
- Single-use vs re-sealable? Snap-shut gives that “come back again” feel
- High print quality and flat surfaces needed? Straight tuck layout helps
- Heavy or fragile items? Auto-lock bottom or specialised inserts
Still not sure? We guide customers through a few quick questions:
- What size and weight is the product?
- Will it be displayed standing, hung, or stacked?
- Is it a one-and-done box or meant to open multiple times?
- Do you need product protection or show-off style?
Flexible, Friendly Support Every Step
Templates are only part of the story. Here’s how we make sure it all works beautifully:
- We double‑check dieline fit and artwork registration
- Offer sample prototyping before full print
- Adjust for board type, print method, and folding axis
- Keep turnaround smooth — most template and prototype setups are ready in a few days.
Ready to Grab a Template?
You don’t need to be a packaging pro to work with templates. Send us your product dimensions, or ask for a style based on your use case, and we’ll:
- Send a template file you can open in Illustrator or CAD
- Help you drop in your design (or guide you on placement)
- Provide a 3D proof so you can see it before it’s glued and printed
