Box dividers, also known as box partitions, are primarily used to create compartments in your packaging to separate and store multiple products in one box. Box partitions can be corrugated for extra protection of fragile products during transit, or made with lightweight paperboard for smaller items. Box dividers can be fully customized and are perfect for organizing your products inside your packaging. Whether you're looking to separate lightweight products such as cookies or fragile items such as glass bottles, we've got just the solution.
All box dividers can be fully customized by size and number of compartments. Get them fully printed with your brand for a beautiful unboxing experience.
