Overview

What Are Custom Sports Boxes?

Custom sports boxes are printed boxes for sports and fitness products, from balls, gloves and resistance bands to apparel, bottles and small training equipment. They have to cope with heavy or awkward shapes and a lot of handling, so strength comes first.

The box also sells the product. Bold colours, clear sizing and a window or product image help shoppers choose quickly in store, while a branded mailer makes an online order feel premium when it arrives.

  • Mailer boxes for online orders
  • Hang-tab boxes for peg display
  • Moulded pulp or card inserts for awkward shapes
  • Size and product details on clear panels

Good to know

Matching the Box to the Product

Heavier items such as weights, balls or boxed equipment need corrugated board and an insert that spreads the weight. Lighter items such as bands, straps, socks and grips can go in folding cartons or hang-tab boxes.

If you sell mostly online, a printed mailer that ships without an extra outer box saves packing time and cost. For retail, think about how the box will be displayed: on a shelf, a peg or a counter. We size and design the box for the way you sell.

Send us the product size and weight and we will recommend the right board.
