Adding Labels, Inserts, and Branding Without Weakening the Structure
Brand your boxes without weakening them: labels, inserts, and printing done right.
Label placement
Quick answer
Place labels on flat panels, not score lines. Use lightweight inserts that do not add significant weight. Print directly for the strongest result. Score lines and flaps are structural points. Covering them with labels can interfere with folding. Heavy inserts compress fluting when stacked. Direct printing adds zero structural impact. For branding, single-colour flexographic printing on the box exterior is the most effective approach.
