Food Boxes Printing in Dubai, UAE

A food box has to fit the meal before it can carry the brand.

Packaging is often the last thing a new restaurant orders and the first thing a customer holds. A box is chosen from a photograph, the artwork is drawn without a dieline, and a logo is placed across a fold or under a glueing flap. The order then arrives in a quantity the kitchen did not plan for or on a board that softens under hot food. The box looks like a rushed addition to the meal, not a considered part of the brand.

Exprintmart prints food packaging boxes backward. Each box in the range has a stated size, board weight, and flat dieline, plus a published quantity and fixed turnaround, so you can match the box is to the menu first and the design second. The sections below set out how the range is built, which box suits which dish, and what we need from you to print.

Sizes and dielines published before you design

Every food box in the range lists its size in centimetres and its flat dieline in millimetres; for example, 690 × 227 mm for the fried chicken box and 314 × 217 mm for the cone French fries box. The dieline shows the trim line, folds, and glueing area, so your designer can place a logo where it will be seen and keep text away from glue. Download the dieline for the box you choose, design it on it, and remove the guidelines before you send the file.

Which food box suits your menu?

Choose the box by how the food is served. A closed box suits food that leaves the premises, an open tray suits food eaten at the counter, and a gable box carries a larger portion by its handle. The table pairs each product with the dish it usually carries, the board it is made from, and its size, so you can narrow your choice before requesting a quote for printed food boxes. Fast food boxes for burgers and chicken use the lighter board, while handled boxes use the heavier one.

Board weight matched to the box.

Food boxes are handled hot, carried by their handles, and stacked in delivery bags, so the board matters. Burger boxes, fried chicken boxes, fries boxes, and trays are made from 250gsm food board with a varnish cover. Gable boxes use a 350 gsm food board with a varnish cover because the handle carries the meal's weight. All boxes are printed in four colors on one side. Confirm your menu and portion size when you request a quote so we can recommend the right box and board.

Food box specifications at a glance

The specification below applies to every food box in the range. You order quantity in three steps, and turnaround is the same for each product, which keeps planning simple for a restaurant with several box types. Sizes are given in the table above. If you need a size not listed, ask the team before you design, because changing the size changes the dieline. Artwork rules are the same for every box, so one set of guidelines covers a full menu.

Who orders printed food boxes

Restaurants, fast food chains, cafés, food trucks, and cloud kitchens order printed food boxes, as do caterers who supply meals for offices, schools, and events. A new brand uses them to launch a menu, and an established brand reorders them to keep a consistent look across branches. Chicken and burger outlets choose boxes by dish, while venues that serve fries at events choose cones and trays. Orders start at 1000 units, so they suit businesses with steady sales or several branches.
