Re: Picture Frame Cardboard Boxes
Hi there,
I've been looking to get boxes similar to these for a while, but not managed to source anyone that sells them. I would definetly be intersted in buying these of you, but am not opening up shop for a few months, so wont need any for quite a while. Would you mind letting me know where you got them from? If so that would be a great help!

Re: Picture Frame Cardboard Boxes
I bought the remaining stock and machinery from a large picture framers that closed down. I don't know where they got them from i'm afraid.
I have a very large quantity of these, way to many for what I need so if you still need some in a few months, let me know and I am happy to do a deal on some

Re: Picture Frame Cardboard Boxes
Ah, that's a shame. I expect they got them produced especially as that's the only way toget them that we found.
I'll prob get in touch when we set up, but it might be a problem if I launch this packaging as an option without having the means to get new supplies when they run out.

Re: Picture Frame Cardboard Boxes
Are they suitable for posting frames? I'm making my own on the CMC at the moment and these might be a good alternative.

Re: Picture Frame Cardboard Boxes
I'm guessing looking at them that they are only single wall board, so they wouldn't be suitable for posting - not sturdy enough.
These type of boxes have to be made from a form, which is the costly part of producing them even though it's a one off fee. However you would need a form for every size you required.
I've been developing a prototype of one of these boxes for quite a while now, which all being well will be adjustable in size to accommodate a range of differing sized frames therefore cutting down on the need to have loads of different sized boxes. I'm hoping that i'll have a product to launch later this year, fingers crossed!

Hi,
These are good and cheap and you can build your own size with only minimum of 25 boxes.

Re: Picture Frame Cardboard Boxes
The sides of the box are very strong once folded up but I add another piece of cardboard or 2mm mdf to protect glass, then just a bit of packaging around the frame.
