Everything below is made in corrugated board at Flint's Woodbridge facility. If you do not see your product, ask. Custom structures are a large part of the work.
Standard packaging
Everyday boxes for shipping and storage. When a stock style does not fit your product, Flint can design a custom solution.
-
RSC boxes
A regular slotted carton is today's most common box design. It has four top and four bottom flaps, and the outer flaps meet at the center when folded.
-
HSC boxes
A half slotted container is similar to an RSC but has no top flaps, which suits open-top assembly.
-
FOL boxes
Full overlap style boxes, part of Flint's everyday standard range alongside RSC and HSC.
-
Bulk packs
For shipping bulk items or irregular loads, or for consolidating several small shipments into one container.
-
Retail-ready packaging
Designed to survive shipping while helping the product stand out on the shelf. Flint handles design, engineering, manufacturing and printing.
Custom packaging
Custom work starts with the product. Flint's structural and production designers engineer the package, then manufacture it and handle fulfillment.
-
Structural engineering
A package built around your product's size, weight and how it ships.
-
Custom package design
Design by Flint's in-house team, with your signature on everything created.
-
Manufacturing
Printed and plain corrugated packaging made in Flint's 60,000 square foot facility.
-
Fulfillment
Specialized assembly, kitting and shipping requirements handled to your specification.
Diecut packaging
Diecut work covers products that do not fit a standard box. Inserts hold a product in place, fitted to its size and contour.
-
Custom diecuts and inserts
Inserts that hold a product in place inside an outer shell. They can be printed with custom artwork or messaging.
-
Hymes bottoms
User-assembled boxes for low-volume shipping. You assemble one by squeezing the side panels together.
-
1-2-3 bottoms
Four diecut bottom flaps that fold together and snap into place without tools. Suited to lighter, small-volume shipments.
Retail displays
Displays are designed, manufactured and printed in-house, using Flint's graphic design team or your own artwork. Flint's consultants recommend the form, substrate and print method for structural soundness and cost.
-
Countertop displays
Give products extra visibility in stores.
-
Floor display boxes
Freestanding merchandising, with the form, substrate and print method recommended by Flint's structural display experts.
-
Product display units
Designed, manufactured and printed in-house.
-
PDQ displays
PDQ stands for pretty darn quick. Low-cost displays for shelves and checkout areas, designed to assemble quickly.
Packaging protection
Supplies that help products arrive in one piece, from pallet to carton.
-
Corrugated pads
Placed between items in a palletized stack. Available in standard-duty, heavy-duty double-wall and triple-wall.
-
Corrugated partitions
Separate items inside a box to prevent damage from contact. Designed for existing boxes or as an all-in-one solution.
-
Moisture barrier boards
For shipping and long-term storage. They resist mould, mildew, water and dust.

Product questions
What is the difference between an RSC and an HSC box?
An RSC, or regular slotted carton, has four flaps on the top and four on the bottom. An HSC, or half slotted container, is similar but has no top flaps, which suits open-top assembly.
Can Flint make a box that is not a standard size?
Yes. Flint's custom packaging covers structural engineering, design, manufacturing and fulfillment, so the box can be built around your product instead of the other way around.
How fast can I get packaging from Flint?
Typical turnaround is three to five working days. Flint says it can provide 24 to 48 hour service and same-day delivery when raw inventory is available. Ask about your date when you request a quote.
Does Flint make retail displays?
Yes. Flint designs, manufactures and prints countertop displays, floor display boxes, product display units and PDQ displays in-house, using its graphic design team or your artwork.
