Frequently Asked Questions

Are your inks safe if a dog chews on the box?

Yes. We use soy-based inks and water-based adhesives exclusively. They're non-toxic and pet-safe — though we still recommend supervising your pup's box-chewing adventures.

How do you handle monthly theme changes for subscription boxes?

We keep the dieline and box structure consistent. You provide new artwork each month (or we can design it for you). Setup costs after the first design are minimal — just the printing plate change.

Can the box ship directly without an outer carton?

Yes! Our subscription boxes are designed for direct shipping. We use B-flute corrugated for durability, and the exterior printing is scuff-resistant.

What's the minimum order for monthly themed boxes?

100 units for the initial design. Once your dieline is established, monthly reorders with new artwork start at 50 units.

Can you do double-sided printing — outside theme + inside surprise?

Absolutely. Many pet box brands print the monthly theme on the outside and a fun 'thank woof' message or puzzle on the inside. It's a subscriber favorite.
