Custom Sleeve & Tray Boxes
Sleeve and tray boxes combine two packaging components into a single premium presentation the rigid inner tray holds and displays the product securely while the printed outer sleeve slides over it to carry all your branding. The two-piece design creates an elegant reveal moment and allows both components to serve independent branding functions.

What Are Sleeve & Tray Boxes?
Sleeve and tray boxes are two-piece packaging boxes made of an inner tray that holds the product and an outer sleeve that slides over it, creating a smooth drawer-style opening. The design feels premium, protects the product within the tray, and offers a large branded surface on the sleeve. Tray and sleeve boxes are popular for cosmetics, confectionery, tech, and gift sets where the unboxing experience matters. At Color Icon, every sleeve tray box is built from a free dieline, available in rigid or folding stock with custom inserts and luxury finishes.

Sleeve & Tray Box Styles We Offer
We manufacture a full range of sleeve box packaging, including two-piece sleeve and tray boxes, rigid drawer boxes, and folding tray boxes for retail. Add a custom insert to cradle the product and a foil-stamped sleeve for a luxury finish that feels expensive in hand. The sleeve gives you a full wraparound surface for branding, while the tray keeps contents secure.
A Premium Drawer-Style Unboxing
The slide-out motion of a sleeve tray box makes opening your product feel like an event. Branded custom sleeve and tray boxes with foil logos and soft-touch finishes are perfect for cosmetics, confectionery, tech, and gift sets where presentation drives perceived value and repeat sales. This tactile experience is exactly what premium brands use to make customers feel they have bought something special.
Sleeve & Tray Boxes for Retail & Gifting
These boxes work beautifully for both retail and gifting. On the shelf, the printed sleeve grabs attention and communicates your brand; as a gift, the smooth drawer reveal delights the recipient. Rigid drawer boxes suit luxury lines and high-value products, while folding tray and sleeve boxes offer the same elegant look at a lower cost for higher-volume retail runs.
Why Choose Color Icon for Sleeve & Tray Boxes
Two-piece boxes often carry higher minimums and setup costs elsewhere. We include free design, never charge die or plate fees, start at 100 units, and ship free across the USA. That lets boutique and growing brands offer a premium drawer-style unboxing without overspending, with both rigid and folding options to match any budget.
Sleeve & Tray Box Materials & Inserts
The feel of a sleeve and tray box depends on its materials. Rigid board gives a substantial, luxury weight ideal for premium and high-value products, while folding stock offers the same elegant slide-out action at a lower cost for higher-volume retail. Inside, custom foam or paperboard inserts cradle your product so it sits perfectly and does not shift when the drawer opens. The outer sleeve provides a full wraparound canvas for your branding, and finishes like soft-touch lamination, foil, and embossing make it feel expensive in hand. We match materials, inserts, and finishes to your product and budget, so your sleeve box packaging delivers exactly the unboxing experience your brand wants.

We accept artwork in AI, EPS, PDF, or high-resolution PSD format (300 DPI minimum). For sleeve and tray boxes, you’ll need artwork for two components — our team will provide die-lines for both the sleeve and tray and can help coordinate the designs.
Consider using the tray interior as a secondary brand story space — a brand message, product ingredients, or a pattern that customers discover when they slide the sleeve off adds an extra layer of brand engagement.
Sleeve and tray boxes are custom-sized so the sleeve slides smoothly over the tray with an appropriate fit tolerance. Provide your product dimensions and we’ll size both components correctly.
The tray depth can be adjusted to show more or less of the product above the tray walls — let us know your preference for product visibility when requesting a quote.
