When it comes to luxury tea set packaging, Xiao Guan Cha sets a new standard in aesthetics, material choice, and thoughtful design creation. The latest Xiao Guan Cha gift box is meticulously crafted to reflect both the premium nature of the tea set inside and the artistry of modern box manufacturing. Below, we explore the material specifications, structural design, and packaging configuration that come together to create a truly exceptional gift experience.
The outer cover of the Xiao Guan Cha gift box is constructed from 2.5mm grayboard, chosen for its durability and premium feel. This is enhanced by:
Silver foil stamping
Artistic pattern printing, derived from curated sample designs
Embossing techniques that add texture and luxury
This layered finishing process gives the exterior an elevated tactile and visual appeal, making the first impression unforgettable.
The inner cover follows the same design philosophy and material selection:
2.5mm gray board
Silver foil stamping + art pattern embossing
Matching sample-based color schemes and artwork (Yaobo A289)
The exact specifications apply to the Tea Cake box and the Tea Set box, ensuring a cohesive and unified aesthetic across all internal components.
The internal tray is made using:
1.5mm PS + PE materials, offering a perfect balance of rigidity and flexibility
Custom cavities are designed for the precision fit of tea cakes and tea bottles.
This setup not only protects the items but also enhances presentation, holding each product in place like a museum display.
The completed gift box is engineered to exacting standards, with a finished size of:
250mm (L) x 311mm (W) x 155mm (H) ±1mm
Such precision ensures consistency across mass production and seamless compatibility with outer shippers and internal components.
Special attention has been paid to the integration of products within the box structure:
The top of the tea cake must be exactly 1mm below the box mouth.
Each cavity holds one cake, with run-fit checks performed before confirmation on the black tray mold.
The top of the tea set must not exceed 3mm from the top edge of the box.
The cavity positioning is aligned with the layout of the 800 black set, ensuring universal fit.
The surface and accessories feature a multi-stage finish that reflects the luxury of the Xiao Guan Cha brand:
Silver foil art pattern printing
Embossing for depth and dimension
Hot stamping, using the Yaobo A289 reference for premium consistency
This process is applied uniformly across the outer paper, inner cover, tea boxes, and trays to ensure a harmonious presentation.
To guarantee the safe delivery of these luxury items, a highly protective shipper design is used:
4 gift boxes per master carton, arranged in 2 layers
Bottom BC corrugated cardboard for a sturdy base
15mm EPE foam below the first layer
5mm inter-layer foam, separating the two levels
B corrugated board on top and bottom
Dedicated spaces for 4x branded handbags
This multi-layer setup minimizes damage risk and maximizes unboxing impact.
To ensure timely sampling and testing:
2 sample units must arrive in Beijing before June 13
1 shipper carton must reach HS before June 15 for product testing
This tight timeline is crucial for aligning with production and distribution schedules.
The Xiao Guan Cha gift box is more than just packaging — it’s a statement of brand sophistication and attention to detail. From material selection and surface finishing to cavity precision and shipping logistics, every element reflects a dedication to premium quality and product integrity.
