SOAP PACKAGING, DIRECT FROM THE MANUFACTURER
LESER manufactures your soap packaging in cardboard, made to your size and, on request, printed with your logo. Choose from 5 packaging types: cardboard slip lid boxes, magnetic boxes, cardboard drawer boxes, book cover cardboard boxes and collar cardboard boxes. Custom packaging made to measure, such as our hand-made boxes, starts at 10 to 20 units. We manufacture to your format, not to a standard size that roughly fits.
At LESER you get packaging solutions from a single source. That means short paths for format, cardboard and finishing, and one contact who tells you what is actually feasible in production.
Personalised soap boxes from LESER are a good fit for soap makers, brands and resellers looking for a high-quality sales box or gift box.
How does a personalised
soap packaging project at LESER work?
A project at LESER runs in 3 steps: take the measurement, build a sample, produce the series. We start with the measurement. Send us a sample of your soap or its dimensions, then we work out the internal size and suggest the right dimensions if you would like advice.
We then build a sample. On request we send it to you, and from larger order quantities it is free of charge. With the sample in your hand you get a feel for the fit, the cardboard and the finishing before the series runs.
We then produce. Custom packaging made to measure is possible from smaller quantities too. The larger the series, the more economical the packaging becomes.
The delivery time depends on the scope of the project: quantity, packaging type and finishing. You therefore receive a binding delivery time from us together with your quotation.
5 PACKAGING TYPES FOR YOUR PERSONALISED SOAP PACKAGING
You specify the size, the colour and the finishing, we build a sample and produce the series. We adapt each of our 5 packaging types to your soap format. That gives you the right packaging for a single bar just as much as for a filled gift box.
Slip lid box
A lid slips over the base. The double layer of material in lid and base makes it particularly sturdy. The all-rounder among the packaging types.
Collar box
A sturdy base, a close-fitting lid and a visible collar in between. The collar gives the box a clean line and guides the lid precisely.
Drawer box
A sturdy outer sleeve and a drawer that pulls out. Pulling it out turns the unboxing into an experience.
Book cover box
The construction comes from bookbinding: the base is wrapped in a rigid cover that runs all the way round. The result is smooth edges and a glued, very sturdy structure.
Magnetic box
A high-quality folding carton with a magnetic closure. The kraft paper gives it a refined feel and a premium look.
Which packaging suits which soap format?
Soap has no standardised dimensions. The table below shows the sizes common on the market for bar soap, round soap and the savon de Marseille cube, and names for each format the packaging type that suits it. That gives you a starting point for your soap packaging boxes. We take the exact measurement from your piece.
HOW CAN THE PACKAGING BE FINISHED?
Each of the 5 packaging types can be finished, whether you order a format common on the market or a size of your own. 4 routes are available for your custom soap packaging: print with your logo, hot foil stamping, colour and the insert. Which of them suits your soap is something we work out together.
All packaging types are available with and without print. We agree the motif, the typeface and the placement with you.
On the lid or, depending on the packaging type, on the insert as well. Classically in gold or silver, plus matt and metallic tones as well as transparent foils. Without foil it works as a colourless blind embossing. Up to 4 colours per motif are possible, in special production too.
Colours
There are almost no limits to the choice of colour. Tell us the colour you want and we will find the right solution together.
An insert holds the soap in place instead of letting it slide around in the box. For sets and for a combination of soap and soap dish it is almost always worthwhile. We make inserts to size, talk to us for an individual quotation.
Who does LESER make soap packaging for?
Soap makers: Handmade soap takes time. After cold process it cures for at least 4 weeks, it often only becomes really hard and mild after 3 to 4 months, and it has to sit in the open while it does. Our box is the sales and gift packaging that comes afterwards, not the packaging for the curing time. If you also wrap each bar individually, our box goes over it.
Savon de Marseille and hard soap: The classic cube is a format of its own, compact and heavy. For presents and sets we lay out the box on the cube.
Hotels and spas: Small formats in a consistent presentation, on request with the logo of the house.
Gift set and gift box: Several soaps, often combined with a dish or accessories. Here the insert decides whether the set looks tidy when it is opened.
These 4 areas are examples, not a closed list. If your soap fits into none of them, we will make the packaging anyway. Just talk to us.
