Custom Vape Boxes Wholesale, Low MOQ | Yellow Packaging

Yellow Packaging makes custom vape boxes to your size, stock and artwork. Orders start at 50 boxes. There are no die or plate charges, design help is free and shipping is free. You get a written quote and dieline within 24 hours, then a 3D mockup to approve before anything is printed.

The range above covers vape cartridge boxes and disposable vape boxes. We build packaging for pods, e-liquid bottles and starter kits too. This page also explains what US rules expect to see printed on a vape box.

What Are Vape Boxes?

What Vape Packaging Boxes Do

Vape boxes are printed cartons that hold and present vaping products, from cartridges and disposables to pods, e-liquid bottles and kits. A good box protects the product, carries your brand and holds the legal labeling your market requires.

Why Vape Packaging Differs From Other Retail Boxes

Legal labeling is the third job. FDA has sent warning letters to e-liquid sellers whose packages lacked the required nicotine warning.

Custom Vape Packaging Boxes by Product Type

Box Styles for Each Vaping Product

Product Common box style What to plan for
Vape cartridges Tuck end box or sleeve with insert A snug fit and room for legal text
Disposable vapes Tuck box or sleeve and tray Wide panels for brand art and warnings
Pods and e-liquid Folding carton or tuck box cut to the bottle Child-resistant rules apply to the bottle
Mods and kits Rigid box with lid A premium feel and a foam or corrugated insert

Custom Sizes and Dielines

If your product does not fit a standard dieline, we build a new one. For premium kits, see our rigid boxes.

Materials for Custom Printed Vape Boxes

Paperboard, Rigid and Recycled Stocks

Material Best for Notes
SBS paperboard Retail cartridge and disposable boxes Smooth white surface for fine detail
Kraft paperboard Natural, earthy brands Unbleached look, lowest print cost in one color
Rigid chipboard Starter kits Wrapped in specialty or textured paper
Recycled and FSC-certified stocks Eco-minded brands Up to 100 percent post-consumer waste on select stocks

Choosing a Stock for Your Product

Match the stock to how the box will live. A counter box needs crisp print. A shipped box needs stiffness. Ask about soy-based inks and water-based coatings, and browse our eco-friendly boxes.

Printing and Finishing Options

Custom printed vape packaging boxes start with the print method, then build up through finishes.

Print Methods

  • Digital printing suits short runs and samples.
  • Offset printing suits high volume.
  • UV printing adds raised, textured ink.
  • Pantone matching holds your brand color across the line.

Finishes and Inserts

  • Foil stamping, embossing, spot UV and soft-touch lamination add a premium feel.
  • Window patching and fitted inserts show and hold the product.

Keep the Warning Panel Legible

Keep finishes off the warning panel. Foil and gloss can reflect light, and federal rules require the warning to contrast with everything else on the package.

What a Vape Box Must Carry in the United States

Product Authorization Comes First

A box does not make a product legal. FDA has authorized a limited number of e-cigarette products and says products without authorization risk enforcement. Check any product in FDA’s Searchable Tobacco Products Database. This is general information, not legal advice. Have an attorney review final artwork.

The FDA Nicotine Warning

Nicotine vaping products sold in the US must carry this statement on the package label:

WARNING: This product contains nicotine. Nicotine is an addictive chemical.

Under 21 CFR 1143.3, the statement must:

  • appear directly on the package, visible under any clear wrap
  • sit on the two principal display panels, covering at least 30 percent of each
  • use at least 12-point Helvetica bold, Arial bold or a similar sans serif
  • be black on white or white on black, centered and capitalized as shown

If a unit is too small, the warning can appear on the carton or outer container instead. Products with no nicotine follow a separate path, so get advice before dropping the warning.

Other Required Label Details

The label must also show the name and place of business of the manufacturer, packer or distributor and an accurate statement of contents. The words Sale only allowed in the United States must appear on the label, packaging and shipping containers.

Child-Resistant Packaging

The Child Nicotine Poisoning Prevention Act requires liquid nicotine containers to use special packaging, enforced by the Consumer Product Safety Commission. It targets the container holding the liquid, such as an e-liquid bottle. Sealed, pre-filled, disposable cartridges are treated differently. A paper box alone does not make a bottle child-resistant. Need a child-resistant outer pack too? Tell us at the quote stage.

Age, Shipping and State Rules

  • Age. The federal minimum age to buy e-cigarettes is 21. A 21+ notice helps but never replaces the FDA warning.
  • Shipping. The PACT Act generally bars the Postal Service from mailing e-cigarettes, and direct sellers must label packages as containing tobacco products.
  • States. States add rules. Illinois, for example, requires e-cigarette container labels to carry the FDA warning.

Hemp and Cannabinoid Cartridges

Hemp-derived and cannabis cartridges follow different rules, and state laws vary. Confirm current rules before you print. See our CBD boxes.

Custom Vape Boxes Wholesale for Worldwide Orders

We ship to Canada, the UK, Australia and most of Europe, and each market has its own rules.

European Union

Article 20 of the Tobacco Products Directive requires a nicotine health warning on the two largest surfaces at 30 percent coverage, plus a leaflet in each unit packet.

United Kingdom

The UK uses the same warning wording on the front and back of each unit packet. Single-use vapes have been banned from sale since June 1, 2025, so disposable vape boxes are not an option there.

Design Tips for Vape Packaging That Sells

Layout and Seals

  • Lock the legal panels first. Place the warning and label details, then design around them.
  • Build a clear hierarchy. Logo first, then product name, then strength.
  • Add a seal. Custom stickers can double as seals that show whether a box was opened.

Avoid Youth Appeal and Borrowed Branding

Regulators are focused on youth access, so skip cartoon characters and candy-style imagery. Use only your own brand and artwork.

How Pricing Works for Wholesale Vape Boxes

What Moves the Price

We quote every project individually. Four things move the price most.

Factor How it affects price
Box style Folding cartons cost less than rigid boxes
Quantity Cost per box falls as volume rises
Print complexity One color on kraft costs least; foil and spot UV add cost
Material Kraft and SBS cost less than specialty or recycled stocks
