Custom Box Dividers & Inserts
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.

Available in 2 Standard Styles
The style of divider to use would depend on the size and number of compartments you're looking for.
- One Piece Box Dividers: These dividers come as 1 piece of paperboard or corrugated material that's folded up to create compartments. These types of dividers are best for single row compartments or compartments that have varying sizes.
- Interlocking Partitions: These partitions are made up of separate pieces of paper or cardboard that's interlocked together to form compartments. Multiple piece partitions are best for creating equal sized compartments spanning multiple rows.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can't find what you're looking for? Check out our help center.
What is the minimum order quantity for custom box dividers?
Minimums start from 300 units when dividers are ordered with the outer box. Standalone dividers start with an MOQ of 500 units.
Where is your packaging produced?
We manufacture all of our packaging through a vetted network of trusted production partners in China, and ship everything directly from the factory to your doorstep.
What are your lead times?
Our standard production lead times typically take 12-16 days, though larger bulk orders can take 3-4 weeks depending on the overall volume and complexity of your packaging. Total delivery timelines will vary based on the shipping method you select.
How long does shipping take?
Shipping times depend entirely on the transport method you choose for your packaging. Air freight generally takes 1-3 weeks, while ocean freight ranges from 4-8 weeks. If you are on a tight deadline, you can split your shipment to send an initial batch via air and the remainder by sea.
What information do I need to provide to get a quote for custom box dividers?
In addition to the specs of the outer box, we'll need to see a rough sketch/mockup of the compartments you're looking to create, which includes the total number of compartments, number of rows/columns, etc.
Can I purchase a sample before placing an order?
Absolutely. We offer several different sample types depending on what you need to test. Whether you just want to verify the physical size and fit of your packaging or need to check final colors and printed artwork, we've got you covered. You can explore all of our sample options here.
Can you provide me with a dieline template?
Yes, we provide custom dieline templates after you place an order for either a custom sample or a full production run.
Should I use corrugated or non-corrugated materials for my box divider?
This would depend on the function of the dividers and your products. We suggest corrugated dividers if your products are heavy, fragile, and will be shipped. Non-corrugated dividers are best for lightweight and non-fragile items. Let us know your use case and we can recommend the ideal material for you!
What format should I provide my artwork to you in?
Please submit your artwork using the custom dieline template we provide, ideally in an editable PDF or Adobe Illustrator (AI) format. To ensure your file is production-ready, keep the design on a separate artwork layer and review our dieline design guide before uploading.
