Apparel Boxes
A hat needs packaging shaped like a hat box, not squeezed into a square shipping carton.
Tailored pricing within 24 hours — no obligation.
A hat box is a round or oval carton, sized to a hat's diameter and crown height, built to protect its shape from crushing or deforming during transit and storage. Unlike most apparel, hats cannot simply be folded flat, which makes shape-specific packaging genuinely necessary rather than a purely stylistic choice.
A hat squeezed into a standard square carton risks losing its shape, particularly around the brim. A properly sized round or oval box gives the hat room to sit as intended, protecting both the crown and brim through handling.
We build classic round hat boxes with a lift-off lid, sized to your hat's diameter and height, along with sturdier corrugated versions for shipping heavier or structured hats.
Folding carton or corrugated board is used depending on the hat's weight and how it will be shipped, with rigid board available for premium millinery ranges.
Custom hat boxes are available from around 50 to 100 units, suiting milliners and hat brands launching a seasonal range.
As a general guide, hat boxes typically cost between £0.60 and £2.20 per unit, depending on size, material and finish.
Recyclable folding carton and corrugated board options are available, along with FSC-sourced material on request.
Send us your hat's diameter and crown height, and we will suggest a suitable box size and material. We build a proof before production and UK-wide delivery.
