Creative Skillet Box Printing

A skillet box or end loading carton is similar to a tuck-end box and perfectly suited to larger runs and mechanical in-line gluing applications for the food industry. The two ends are glued after packing, this makes skillet end boxes one of the most cost-effective carton styles available for larger volumes. If your co-packer or production plant has the end loader machinery to auto-fill cartons, skillets are usually the most cost-effective packaging option.

We pride ourselves in our exceptional customer service, passionate team and innovative printing to create quality packaging that is sustainable and retail-ready.

All of our skillet boxes are fully customised to fit your food and drink products. Not sure where to start? We can also design the print-ready artwork for you from start to finish.

Excellent quality and great service

Very happy to have chosen Newton Print to get our new product boxes printed. We had quite a complex requirement... 2 box sizes, split between 15 variations, with varying quantities of each. Tristan (at Newton Print) was extremely helpful (and patient ) whilst we were going through the process of finalising designs and determining the best print options for our products. The final product looks fantastic... and our customers and resellers have said the same! Box card and print quality is excellent and they do our products proud! Would highly recommend Newton Print. Great job guys! Phil T Director EMIAS THERAPEUTICS

Very happy with quality service

Newton Print developed a printed mailer wrap for our sample packs, significantly reducing our plastic packaging and resulting in a stunning mailer that really grabs the attention. We are very pleased with it and have had so many comments from customers who love getting our sample packs through the door now!

More information

What is a skillet packaging box?

A skillet packaging box, also known as a skillet end loading carton, is similar to a tuck end box but it has been designed for high-volume, automated packaging lines. This folding carton arrives pre-glued and flat-packed ready for in-line gluing at both ends once the product has been placed inside.

An end loading carton is open at one side instead of at the top. The product is then inserted into the pre-assembled packaging from the side and sealed by the end loading machine ready for shipping. This process is ideal for rigid products. Alternatively, for fragile products, top loading cartons are a more suitable choice.

 

What can skillet boxes be used for?

Due to their specific design to suit end loading machines, we’ve found that skillet packaging is ideal for:

  • Pre-packed Chilled, Ambient or Frozen Food
  • Cereals and Biscuits
  • Snacks
  • Charcuterie, Smokehouse and Deli Foods
  • Food Kits and Meal Kits
  • Candles, Soaps and Cosmetics
  • Direct-to-Consumer and Retail Packaging

In addition, we offer a wide range of skillet box printing options to suit your requirements including full colour printing, pantone spot colour printing, recyclable materials, matt and gloss finishes, with or without windows and low MOQ’s down to 1,000 units.

Our skillet box packaging is produced in-house for fast turnaround and cost-efficiency. Talk to our team to find out how we can produce your packaging from your artwork, or help you create your own designs.
