Custom packaging, made by agents.

Describe the box in one sentence. Tuckra draws the dieline, gets three converters to bid, and ships you a sample before a single sheet is printed.

Say what it holds.
One sentence is enough. Product, size, finish, quantity. Tuckra reads it like a packaging engineer would.
Step 02 / 05
Drawn to the millimetre.
Agents draw a production dieline for your product: cut lines, creases, dust flaps and a 3 mm bleed, checked against the board you picked.
Step 03 / 05
Hold a sample first.
A plain folded sample ships to your desk in 4 days. Check the fit with the real product before a single sheet is printed.
Step 04 / 05
Three quotes, one click.
Converters bid on the job. You see price, lead time and carbon side by side, then approve the one you want.Pressed 0 / 2,000
Step 05 / 05
Flat-packed to your door.
Boxes are quality-checked, flat-packed and delivered with tracking. Reorders take one tap and keep the same dieline.

The unboxing

Your customers open the box.

Make it worth filming.

A printed inside, a lid that lifts slowly, a note where the product sits. Brands that switch to Tuckra boxes see their packaging tagged in customer posts three times as often.

@petalandpost

Opened, filmed, posted.

People post the box.

Maya Okafor

@mothhour

Our boxes used to arrive cracked one time in forty. It has been zero for 1,400 orders now. Also the foil is unreal.

Owen Hale

@hale.ceramics

Sent a one-line brief at 11pm, had three quotes by breakfast. That never happened with our old supplier.

June Park

@kilncoffee

Café staff keep asking where we got the tubes. The honest answer: I typed a sentence.

Ida Lindqvist

@nordvik.oslo

Nineteen days from sketch to a rigid box on a department store shelf. I still don’t fully believe it.

Tom Adeyemi

@sproutandoat

The tear-strip display saved every one of our stockists a job. Reordering is one tap now.

Hanna Berg

@oddbirdtea

The carbon number on each quote made the choice for us. Recycled grey, 0.11 kg a box.

Elise Laurent

@petalandpost

Flowers now arrive standing up. Our unboxing videos tripled in a quarter.

Rafa Moreno

@hush.audio

We swapped plastic trays for pulp without touching the box design. 4.1 tonnes of plastic, gone.

Noa Bennett

@littlefable

70% of parents say their kids still play in the box. Best marketing we have ever done.

Tuckra vs. the usual way

Every box.

None of the chasing.

Most small brands buy packaging one of three ways. Here is how they compare for a run of printed mailers.

Questions

Asked before

every first order.

Still wondering about something? Email hello@tuckra.co and a person, not an agent, replies within a working day.

250 boxes for mailers and shippers, 100 for rigid boxes. Below that, printing plates cost more than the boxes. We'll tell you where the price drops, so you can decide.

A plain sample reaches you in 4 working days. Printed production takes 9 to 15 days after you approve the proof, depending on the converter you pick. Every quote shows the date.

Independent converters: the factories that print, cut and glue board. We work with 212 of them in 31 countries. You see who made your order, where, and their QC photos.

Every order is checked against your approved proof before it ships. If it doesn't match, the converter reprints at their cost and we cover the delay. It's in writing, on every order.

No. Upload a logo and we set it on a dieline drawn for your product. If you have artwork, drop the PDF in and we check it for bleed, colour and fold lines.

All kraft board is FSC-certified with 70 to 100% recycled content, printed with soy- or water-based inks. Every quote lists the carbon per box so you can compare converters.
