Snap Lock Box Printing for Food & Drinks Packaging

Our custom printed snap lock bottom boxes will give your products an extra visual boost on-shelf whilst protecting your product during transit. Snap lock boxes (aka auto lock and 1-2-3 bottom boxes) are a cost-effective way to show off your brand and help it stand out from the crowd.

Our snap lock boxes are totally customised to fit your food and drink products. We can also design the print-ready artwork for you.

What is a Snap Lock Box?

Snap lock boxes are a very cost-efficient way to produce a locking base, only requiring a single glue-line. However, these do tend to be more fiddly to assemble at the packing end, so it’s advisable to consider this when choosing a snap lock box.

The snap lock base is assembled by hand as the box is filled, and these boxes are supplied flat for easy storage. This is a very popular style of box due to the low print and production costs.

About Our Snap Lock Bottom Boxes

These printed packaging boxes come in a range of board weights and finishes including gloss, matt and uncoated. We also have a range of speciality papers and boards including Kraft, metallic, GF Smith and many more.

We are a Carbon Balanced Printer, certified with CarbonCo and the World Land Trust – you can read more about what that means for you here. We produce in-house and machine-glue our boxes to ensure accuracy, speed and cost-efficiency.

We deliver locally in the UK and around the world to your processing plant, co-packers or hold in stock for call-off to enable a fast and seamless operational flow.
