Pentagon Boxes

Present Your Products with Pentagon Boxes

In a retail landscape dominated by cubes, a pentagon is distinctive. It signals that the product inside is different, special, or advanced. This shape is particularly effective for limited-edition runs or promotional kits where the goal is to stop the customer in their tracks. Functionally, the pentagon offers unique internal volume. It can accommodate round objects with less wasted corner space than a square box, or it can be used to house five distinct items in a sampler set, with each item resting against one of the walls.

Considerations for Pentagon Boxes

Packaging Material for Pentagon Boxes

We select materials that support the angular design without cracking at the folds.

• SBS Cardboard: The standard for folding cartons. It offers a smooth, white print surface and folds crisply, making it ideal for retail shelves.

• Rigid Board: For a premium feel. We use sturdy chipboard wrapped in art paper to create a solid, non-collapsible pentagon box that feels like a keepsake.

• Kraft Board: A natural choice for organic brands. The unbleached look pairs well with the geometric shape for a “modern rustic” aesthetic.

• Corrugated Board: Used for larger or heavier pentagonal displays, providing extra crush resistance.

Accurate Size and Style of Pentagon Boxes

The pentagon boxes can be extruded into different forms.

• Pentagonal Prism: A tall box with a pentagon base and top. Great for rolled t-shirts or posters.

• Flat Pentagon Box: A shallow box (like a pizza box but five-sided) perfect for chocolates, jewelry, or software discs.

• Tapered Pentagon: A box that starts with a pentagonal base and tapers to a point or a smaller top, creating a pyramid-like effect.

• Two-Piece Pentagon: A separate lid and base style, offering a premium “lift-off” unboxing experience.

Common Dimensions

• Small Prism (3” side width x 6” height): For cosmetics or candles.

• Flat Gift Box (5” diameter x 1.5” height): For jewelry or coasters.

• Large Display (8” side width x 10” height): For toys or multi-item sets.

Get Pentagon Boxes That Angle for Attention

The five faces offer a unique layout challenge and opportunity.

• Sequential Storytelling: Use the five panels to tell a story or list five key benefits of your product as the customer rotates the box.

• Panoramic Art: Wrap a continuous landscape or pattern around the entire box for a seamless 360-degree view.

• Top-Down Branding: The pentagonal lid is a distinct shape; place your logo in the center for a powerful geometric focal point.

Premium Finish for Geometric Brands

Enhance the sharp lines with high-end finishes of pentagon boxes.

• Foil Stamping: Gold or silver lines along the edges of the pentagon emphasize the unique geometry.

• Spot UV: Use gloss varnish on specific panels to create contrast with a matte background.

• Embossing: Raise your logo or a pattern on the lid for a tactile effect.

• Window Patching: A custom-shaped window on one or more panels lets the product inside be part of the display.

Pentagon Boxes in a Nutshell

• Uniqueness: A silhouette that stands out from the competition.

• Versatility: adaptable for both tall prisms and flat gift boxes.

• Engagement: Encourages customers to pick up and rotate the package.

• Quality: Precise die-cutting for sharp, professional angles.
