ORDER-LEVEL PACKING RULE

SKU A receives Box V2 + Care Card EN

Packaging inventory is counted separately. If one component runs low, the warehouse follows the approved fallback instead of substituting silently.

MOQ, material, lead time and unit cost are confirmed for the exact format and quantity.

Review fit, finish, protection, barcode placement and the complete customer-facing presentation before packaging enters live fulfillment.

Keep product-level decisions separate from packaging decisions so the quote, sample and

QC checklist stay clear.

Inspect the real product inside the finished package. Artwork can look correct on screen while

the barcode, fit, weight or protection fails in use.

Is there one MOQ for custom packaging?

Can I approve a physical sample?

What happens when packaging runs low?

Should I start with a custom box?

Do you store packaging inventory?

What if I also need product changes?

No. MOQ depends on the format, dimensions, material, printing method, finish, supplier and quantity.

Yes. Color, finish, fit, protection and customer-facing details should be checked against the actual product.

Define a reorder point and an approved hold, neutral-pack or substitute rule before live orders depend on the material.

Not necessarily. An insert, label, bag or mailer can create a useful first branding step with less inventory and parcel impact.

Packaging can be stored and counted with the fulfillment operation when thatarrangement is included in the approved workflow.

Product-level logo application or modification belongs in the Private Label workflow, with its own feasibility, sample and QC plan.
