How to use this mockup

  1. Start from the 180 × 140 × 60 mm sample or type your own size.
  2. Design straight on its real dieline.
  3. Turn it in 3D, export a picture or video, or stage a scene.

Trade tips

  • Dark colour over the box edges cracks at the corners: choose a light ground or a dyed-through paper.
  • Foil and embossing on a textured paper feel more premium than more ink colours.
  • Coated (couche) paper prints photos sharply; laminate it so the folds do not crack.
  • Soft-touch lamination feels velvety; pair it with few colours and foil or spot UV.

Questions

Is the rigid box with velvet insert 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 rigid box with velvet insert?

Yes — from the 180 × 140 × 60 mm sample or your own size, with the dieline redrawn.

Can I get the rigid box with velvet insert 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 rigid box with velvet insert sample printed on?

The sample is coated (C2S) 150 gsm with soft-touch lamination, on a dieline drawn at the size you type.

Construction

Two separate pieces: a base and a lid that slips over it. Each is a greyboard tray V-grooved at the four corners, folded up and taped square, then wrapped in printed paper that turns in 15–20 mm over the inner edge. The lid can cover the base fully (deep lid) or partly (shoulder showing a band of the base). Inside, an insert of EVA foam, wrapped board or velvet holds the product.

Choosing board and material

The core is greyboard: 1.5–1.8 mm for cosmetics, jewellery and light goods; 2–2.5 mm for wine, porcelain and heavy gift sets. The wrap is 120–157 gsm: coated paper for sharp photographic print, or a textured, pre-coloured fine paper when the feel matters more than ink. The inside is lined with plain coated or matching coloured paper.

Finishing

Laminate the wrap (matt or soft-touch) so corners don't scuff or crack. Hot foil, metallic foil and embossing are done on the wrap before it goes onto the board. Spot UV works best on matt lamination. On fine papers, foil and debossing usually look better than many printed colours.

Preparing the print file

Design two wraps, one for the lid and one for the base, each with its top, four walls and the 15–20 mm turn-in. Let the pattern run across the fold so no white shows at the edges. Keep the logo at least 8–10 mm from the lid edge, because wrapping can drift 1–2 mm. Every finish (foil, emboss, spot UV) is its own vector file in 100% black, in place.

Common mistakes

  • Sizing the inside to the exact product: the 2 mm board and the insert take room, so the product won't fit or the lid won't close. Add the insert's thickness and 1–2 mm of tolerance.
  • Small type or thin borders close to the lid edge: the wrap shifts when folded and the border shows the drift.
  • Unlaminated wrap on a dark box: corners crack and lose ink after a few openings.

Questions and answers

How is a rigid lid-and-base box different from a paper one?

A rigid box has a 1.5–2.5 mm greyboard core wrapped in print, so it keeps its shape, carries weight and gets reused; a paper lid-and-base box is folded from 300–400 gsm ivory or duplex board — far lighter and cheaper, but not as stiff.

Deep lid or shoulder lid?

A deep lid covers the whole base and looks like one solid block. A shoulder lid shows a band of the base, which suits a two-colour look and makes the lid easier to lift.

Can a rigid lid-and-base box ship flat?

No — it is glued for good. For big shipments over long distances, a collapsible rigid box (fixed with magnets, set up on arrival) saves volume.
