Heavy-Duty Hard Case Packaging for High-Value Goods

For flagship items, VIP corporate gift hampers, medical test devices, and luxury collectibles, standard folding cartons lack the required physical substance. Ad King operates a dedicated semi-automatic rigid box and hard case manufacturing line in Okhla Industrial Estate Phase 2, New Delhi.

Hard case boxes (also referred to as case-bound packaging) utilize high-density Kappa greyboard ranging from 1.5mm to over 3.0mm in thickness. This robust core is grooved, folded, and machine-wrapped with printed 157 GSM artpaper, metallic foil paper, or tactile textured cloths.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hard Case Boxes
