Ask whether design consultation is included in the quote or charged separately. A good structural designer can reduce material cost while improving protection.
Die tooling is a one-time cost, typically $200–$800 for standard die-cuts and $600–$1,500 for complex shapes or multi-piece designs. The die belongs to you and is reusable for all future orders. Amortized across 1,000+ units, tooling cost per box becomes minimal.
Before committing to a production die, request a cut sample or digital prototype. Many die-cut suppliers offer plotter-cut samples (from a digital cutter, not production tooling) at low cost — this lets you test fit, fold, and function before investing in a steel rule die.
Die-cut boxes require more press setup than standard RSC boxes. At lower volumes (250–500), setup cost is a larger share of per-unit cost. If you have multiple SKUs, grouping them in a single production run with the same supplier can reduce aggregate setup charges.
