🕯️Featured Project Case Study

Client: Aroma & Co. (Indie Candle Maker — Brooklyn, NY)

Turning a Kitchen Concept into a Luxury Retail Shelf Brand

The Challenge: The client was losing 15% of glass candle jars during shipping due to loose internal packaging, and broad "standard retail boxes" lacked luxury appeal.
The XCustomBox Solution: We engineered a Custom Matte Black Box with a thick, internal custom-die-cut insert that permanently locked the glass jar base. We printed using soy-based inks for an elegant velvet-matte finish that repels fingerprint oils.
The Result: Shipping damage dropped to 0%. Starting with just our 100 MOQ, they expanded to a 5,000 bulk order within 3 months.
