A folded insert is one die-cut board folded into a block that holds the goods still inside a box: a bridge with holes, a sunken pocket, steps, half-round cradles, card slots. One sheet, little or no glue, in place of foam.
Yes, commercial use included; Free adds a watermark grid at 1K, Pro exports 4K without it.
Yes — 3 sizes from 200 × 120 × 30 to 200 × 200 × 40 mm, or type yours, with the dieline redrawn.
Yes, with Pro: the die files (SVG, PDF / AI, DXF / CF2) and the CMYK print PDF; designing on the die is free.
The sample is ivory (C1S board) 300 gsm with matte lamination, on a dieline drawn at the size you type.
A holed insert is a single die-cut board: the top deck is cut with round, square or product-shaped apertures, and four walls fold down as legs that hold the deck at the right height, locked by tabs or a glue flap. Products drop into the holes, resting on the box floor while the deck grips their bodies to stop movement. Variants such as cradles, lying bottle supports, display risers, slot-together blocks and zigzag inserts use the same fold-a-block principle with little or no glue.
C1S ivory at 300–350 gsm is the default for gift, cosmetic and bakery inserts; inserts for glass bottles or heavy liquor move to 350–400 gsm, two-ply laminated board, or E-flute corrugated. Inserts that touch cakes or chocolate directly should be food-grade board or carry a greaseproof liner, with no ink on contact areas. Take-away cup carriers use kraft or moulded pulp to handle condensation.
Inserts are usually plain or printed in one colour, sometimes in the brand colour so the reveal matches the box; matte lamination keeps them clean and grease-resistant but stiffens the board, so creases crack unless scored deeply. Foil and spot UV are rare because the insert is only seen on opening; if wanted, put a small logo on a flat area between holes.
Size the insert to the box's inside dimensions minus 1–2 mm each way, and each hole to the product's diameter plus 1–3 mm; around cup or bottle holes add star or radial slits so the board grips. Leg height sets how far the product sits up, plus floor thickness if needed. Keep cut, crease and slit lines on separate layers and colours, and leave at least 5–8 mm of board between holes and between holes and fold lines so it does not tear.
The deck is cut to the device outline plus 1–2 mm, with folded walls below giving depth; the walls stop the device sliding inside a hinged box.
Yes — a finger notch or ribbon pull beneath the product makes lifting out easy, especially for snug phones and watches. Three sizes from 200 × 120 × 30 to 200 × 200 × 40 mm.
Usually 300–350 gsm ivory; heavy goods like liquor, ceramic mugs and large glass bottles use 350–400 gsm, two-ply laminated board or E-flute; take-away cup trays use kraft.
About 1–3 mm over the measured diameter; for glass or ceramic with wide tolerances add slits round the hole so the board flexes to fit several sizes.
For medium, light products yes — it is cheaper, easy to recycle and printable; very fragile or heavy items like premium perfume or crystal glass sets still deserve EVA foam or multi-ply laminated inserts.
