We engineer the fit that protects your product.
Custom Box Inserts makes custom-cut foam and die-cut cardboard inserts for the brands and manufacturers who ship things that break, scratch, or shift. Send us your product dimensions, a CAD file, or a photo. Our engineers spec the material, design the cavity layout, cut a sample, and scale it to production. The result is an insert built to your product and your box — not a stock tray you have to make work.
Why We Exist
The premium end of a commodity category.
Packaging inserts are usually treated as a throwaway line item. Generic foam, guessed densities, no testing, and a vendor who disappears after the invoice. We built the opposite.
Better material spec
We don’t default to whatever is cheapest on the shelf. We match PE, PU, EVA, or ESD foam and the right board grade to your product’s weight, fragility, and handling — so protection is engineered, not assumed.
Real drop-test guidance
We translate fragility and weight into cushioning that survives the truck, the belt, and the last mile. ISTA-informed recommendations and physical samples mean you validate the fit before a full run, not after a return.
Actual customer service
Free design help, unlimited proof revisions, and a team that picks up the phone. You work with people who understand inserts, not a form that routes to nobody.
How We Work
Quote, proof, approve, ship.
Four steps from your specs to inserts on your line. Design proofs land in 24–48 hours. Production runs in 7–10 business days.
Quote
Send dimensions, a CAD file, or a photo. We scope material, quantity, and price — minimums start at 25.
Proof
Our engineers return a free CAD proof and cut layout in 24–48 hours, with unlimited revisions until the fit is right.
Approve
Review the proof or a physical sample, test the fit and protection, and sign off before anything runs.
Ship
We produce and deliver in 7–10 business days, quoted per order nationwide. Rush options are available.
Who We Serve
Built for the products that can’t arrive damaged.
The same engineered process, tuned to the demands of each category.
Static-safe and snug
ESD-safe foam cavities that hold boards, devices, and accessories without shift and survive parcel handling.
Clean, validated nests
Precise foam nests for instruments and diagnostics, spec’d for cleanliness and drop-test requirements.
Heavy parts, held firm
High-density foam and double-wall board that carry weight and resist repeated open-and-close in the field.
Premium unboxing
Printable paperboard trays and clean foam nests that make a set feel considered and arrive unbroken.
Precision retention
Convoluted and routed foam that locates optics, components, and accessories exactly where they belong.
Repeatable and brand-forward
Die-cut board inserts that stage every item on the reveal and keep unit costs low at volume.
Built by Quokka Prints
One focus, backed by a parent that ships custom goods daily.
Custom Box Inserts is one of roughly twenty niche custom brands under Quokka Prints. Box inserts are the singular focus here — it is all we design, cut, and ship. But behind that focus you get the sourcing leverage, production capacity, and service team of a parent company that produces custom goods every day. That means better material access, steadier lead times, and a partner that has done this thousands of times before your run.
