So you’re running an Ecommerce business: designing products, communicating with manufacturers, managing accounting, updating your social media, acting as customer support and more! This is an exciting and sometimes stressful venture, and it can be daunting to consider the last piece of the puzzle – shipping boxes. Buying and designing the most efficient shipping boxes for your Ecommerce business may seem overwhelming, but with a trusted and experienced manufacturer like Jetbox this process is made easy!
The best thing for you to do when preparing to order your Ecommerce boxes is to measure your products and protective packaging and ensure you have the perfect measurements for your boxes. For example, if you order a box the exact size of your products you leave no room for bubble wrap or void fill. Too big of a box, and you might end up paying extra for shipping – and will use more void fill than necessary to protect your items, which adds to your overall bill. Once you have these measurements, it’s easy to use our website to design and order your Ecommerce boxes.

Buying Packaging Optimised for Ecommerce Use
If you have ordered from an Ecommerce business, you will have noticed a wide range of box styles and qualities. A positive first impression is key to creating long-lasting customers, and a flimsy box will never provide that. So what are the best types of packaging for Ecommerce? And what makes a package design good for Ecommerce businesses, from assembly through to delivery and beyond.
For most business owners, boxes are the packaging of choice. Corrugated cardboard boxes, like those at Jetbox, provide protection and durability without breaking the bank. Cardboard is an environmentally friendly, recyclable material that can be reused or turned into compost. Unlike plastic padded bags, or other packaging alternatives, cardboard boxes are eco-friendly and business friendly.
What Packaging We Recommend for Ecommerce Business Owners
There are a few styles of custom box we offer at Jetbox that are ideal for Ecommerce businesses. You need a box that is durable, can handle all types of transit and creates a dramatic reveal when opened.

How to Create Successful Packaging for your Store
The key to creating successful Ecommerce packaging is understanding your customers, and the journey your products will take. Streamlining your packaging process is an important part of running a successful Ecommerce business. By ordering boxes that are easy to store and easy to assemble, you save hours assembling and taping together fiddly boxes. If you have the same size boxes each time, you can cut your bubble wrap, tissue paper and other products to the same size and have them pre-prepared to simply place inside your boxes, tape them up and send them on their way!
Successful Ecommerce packaging is also reliant on the statement it makes. By creating boxes with your logo, using stickers or custom printing, you advertise your businesses to everyone whose eyes come across your package. It also creates excitement for your customers when their packages arrive!
