SBS Board
Smooth white board for premium printed retail packaging.
Most brands who make large 50cl candles say the same thing: the jar looks beautiful, but finding a box that actually fits and protects it isn’t easy. Off-the-shelf packaging never matches the weight or size properly. That’s why we build custom 50cl candle boxes shaped around your jar, printed the way you want, and sturdy enough to stop returns caused by cracks, movement, or scuffs.
Product details
The 50cl jar is heavier, wider, and more premium than most candle sizes, so it needs packaging with proper structure and stronger board. At Healey Packaging, we design custom 50cl candle boxes that match the specific glass you use, whether it’s straight-sided, rounded, or a designer jar. This avoids pressure points and stops the candle knocking around during delivery.
We’ve been making candle packaging for well over a decade, working with independent makers and large home-fragrance brands across the UK. That hands-on experience is what shapes the way we design these boxes — not theory, but real production feedback from people who pour hundreds of candles every month.
A candle this size usually sits at the higher end of a collection, so the packaging needs to reflect that. You can choose rigid 50cl candle boxes for a luxury feel or folding carton styles if you prefer something budget-friendly but printed. Both can be fully customised with foiling, embossing, soft-touch finishes, or simple clean artwork.
If you sell alongside 30cl candle packaging, we can match colour tones, layout, and branding so the whole range feels consistent on retail shelves.
A large candle is risky to ship without the right build. We reinforce the structure using thick board and optional inserts that hold the jar firmly in place. These inserts are tailored to your jar shape rather than a generic cut-out, which makes a huge difference in preventing cracks and transit damage.
Your customers get a candle that arrives intact, and you avoid those frustrating refunded orders.
We offer several packaging materials depending on your brand style:
Every option is food-safe, compliant with UK packaging standards, and suitable for candle jars that generate heat after burning.
Measurements matter with a heavy jar. We work from your exact candle dimensions — height, diameter, and lid depth — so the box is built to fit properly. If you’re currently using 30cl candle packaging as a reference, our team can guide you through the difference in board strength and insert style needed for the 50cl format.
Some brands prefer a minimal print, others want detailed artwork. We cover both with:
Both allow tight colour matching to help you maintain brand consistency across jars, boxes, sleeves, and gift sets.
We’ve supplied candle packaging for more than 10 years, producing everything from small trial batches to full retail collections. Our team handles design proofs, dielines, production, and quality checks in one place. This avoids delays, misprints, and sizing errors — the issues candle makers complain about most.
We also work with FSC®-certified materials and keep waste low during production, something many eco-led candles brands value in their supply chain.
