4. Key Advantages

1. Maximum Protection: The corrugated structure effectively cushions against compression and impact during transit, providing perfect protection for delicate products such as false eyelashes and gift boxes.

2. High Cost-Effectiveness: Compared to laminated gift boxes, air-cushioned boxes are extremely cost-effective, making them ideal for high-volume e-commerce shipments.

3. Warehouse-Friendly: Stored flat when folded, they take up minimal space, significantly reducing warehousing costs.

4. Brand Promotion: Custom-printed air-cushioned boxes serve as mobile brand advertisements, boosting customer repeat purchase rates.

5. Eco-friendly: Made from recyclable paper, these boxes meet environmental standards and align with the beauty industry’s sustainability trends.

5. Suitable Applications

Outer packaging for e-commerce shipments of eyelash and beauty products

Packaging for customer orders at eyelash studios

Shipping packaging for brand samples and promotional gifts

Courier delivery of various lightweight and small items

6. Customisation Tips for the Eyelash Industry

- For eyelash products, we recommend a 3-layer E-flute white cardboard display box, which offers clear printing, sufficient rigidity and moderate cost.

- Bubble wrap or foam padding can be placed inside the box to further protect the shape of the eyelashes and prevent deformation during transit.

- When customising, you can reserve space for an inner tray to accommodate eyelash trays, thereby improving packing efficiency.
