Multi Crease Cartons - One Box, Five Depths
We are excited to introduce our brand-new Multi Crease Cartons — adjustable depth cardboard boxes (also known as variable depth cartons or adjustable mailing boxes) designed for ecommerce shipping and retail packaging. Whether you are packing a single item or doubling up, one clever carton handles it all. No more ordering multiple box sizes for multiple product heights.
What is a Multi Crease Carton?
A multi crease carton is an adjustable-depth cardboard box with multiple pre-scored fold lines, allowing one box to fit different product heights (typically 10–50mm). These cartons — also called multi crease boxes or variable depth cartons — are commonly used in ecommerce fulfilment, retail packaging, and gift box applications where product sizes vary.
Each carton is flat-packed and features five built-in crease positions. Simply fold at the line that matches your item's depth, tape closed, and done. One product in your storeroom replaces what would otherwise be five separate box SKUs.
Available in A5, A4, A3, and A2, these foldable cartons suit everything from small jewellery and cosmetics through to books, clothing, and stationery.
Available Sizes
Click any size to shop — all sizes accommodate depths of 10, 20, 30, 40 & 50mm from the same box:
