How to use this mockup

  1. Start from the 300 × 300 × 40 mm sample or type your own size.

  3. Turn it in 3D, export a picture or video, or stage a scene.

This mockup’s dieline: FEFCO 0426

Trade tips

  • For e-commerce mailers, printing inside the lid is a cheap way to make the unboxing feel special.
  • Print the logo on two adjacent sides so the name shows however the cartons are stacked.
  • White-lined corrugated gives brighter colours than brown for the same inks.
  • Unlaminated paper keeps its natural feel but scuffs easily: fine for short-lived packs.

Questions

Is the pizza box with window mockup free?

Yes, commercial use included; Free adds a watermark grid at 1K, Pro exports 4K without it.

Can I use my own size for the pizza box with window?

Yes — from the 300 × 300 × 40 mm sample or your own size, with the dieline redrawn.

Can I get the pizza box with window dieline for printing?

Yes, with Pro: the die files (SVG, PDF / AI, DXF / CF2) and the CMYK print PDF; designing on the die is free.

What is the pizza box with window sample printed on?

The sample is white-liner corrugated board with no lamination, on a dieline drawn at the size you type.

Construction

The whole box is cut from one sheet of corrugated board in the FEFCO 04xx family: the base is the centre panel, the front and side walls stand up and fold double inward, corner flaps tuck into the sides or hide inside the walls, and the lid hinges off the back wall with a deep tuck flap that drops into a slot at the front. Variants add lid lock tabs, a zipper tear strip, pre-applied tape, carry holes, push-in handles, windows or loose dividers. Boxes ship flat and a packer erects them by hand in seconds, with no gluing.

Choosing board and material

E flute (about 1.2–1.8 mm) is the standard for gift, cosmetics, bakery and small mailer boxes; B flute (about 2.5–3 mm) for shoe boxes and mailers carrying more than 3–5 kg; F or N microflute, thinner than E, when you want crisp folds close to folding carton. Kraft liners suit 1–2 colour flexo, white liners print cleaner, and for photography and exact brand colours the sheet is printed offset on coated paper and laminated onto E or B flute. Cake and pizza boxes with food touching the board need a food-contact inner liner or a greaseproof sheet.

Finishing

Litho-laminated boxes should get matt or gloss film against scuffing in transit before any foil or spot UV on the lid logo; kraft flexo boxes look best left natural, with one colour printed inside the lid for the opening moment. Windows are patched with PET or OPP film after die-cutting, while carry holes, push-in handles and zipper strips are cut by the same die and cost no extra pass.

Preparing the print file

On the flat dieline every doubled wall shows two faces side by side, the inner face turned 180° to the outer; the lid, tuck flap and inside of the lid run in one strip, so artwork must be rotated panel by panel. The lid is the hero face and the front wall is what people read on a shelf or in a delivery carton; put barcodes and shipping labels on the base or a side. Keep 3 mm bleed and hold type 3–5 mm clear of cut and crease lines, and never on corner flaps or tuck flaps.

Common mistakes

  • Placing the logo across the crease between the lid and back wall: every opening cracks the film and splits the logo in two.
  • Sizing the inside to the product without allowing for doubled walls: each E-flute wall takes about 3 mm, B flute about 6 mm, and the product jams.
  • Running a pattern continuously from lid to front without allowing for the tuck flap: once closed the flap goes inside and the pattern loses a strip as deep as the flap.
  • Large solid areas in direct flexo on kraft: the colour mottles and the flute shows through; switch to litho-lam or redesign with line work and type.

Questions and answers

What pizza size fits a 300 × 300 × 40 mm window pizza box?

An 11-inch (28 cm) pizza with room to grip it; a 30 cm pizza needs about 320–330 mm; four mooncakes fit only if they are flat ones under about 35 mm tall, with a divider tray.

Does a window on a pizza box fog up?

Yes, hot pizza gives off a lot of steam: add vent holes in the walls, use heat-resistant anti-fog window film, or make a small corner window instead of a central one.

Does a corrugated flip-top box need tape?

Not necessarily: the deep tuck flap and doubled walls keep the lid shut. For courier shipping add a seal sticker, or pick a version with lock tabs or a tear strip that shows the box hasn't been opened.

E flute or B flute for a flip-top mailer?

E flute for goods under about 2–3 kg where you want a neat, well-printed box; B flute for heavy or sharp-cornered goods, or boxes longer than about 350 mm, accepting thicker folds.

Can a flat-shipped flip-top box be re-erected several times?

A few times, since there is no glue, but the creases weaken; boxes meant for returns or for customers to keep and store things in should be B flute or litho-laminated for durability.
