Chief Engineer's Note

20 Years of Structural Design Experience

This high-end, long octagonal gift box in a chic brown-and-black color block design is custom-made for artisanal diamond chocolates, fresh-creme chocolates as keepsakes, or upscale business gifts. The outer cover is finished with 250–300g deep brown or black matte‑touch art paper, offering a fine, anti‑fingerprint surface and a sophisticated, vintage‑style texture. The box body is reinforced with 2.0–2.5mm thick double‑sided grey board, ensuring crisp, well‑defined edges that remain durable and resistant to deformation even after repeated opening and closing. The interior features high‑density EVA foam at 38°–45°, CNC‑milled to create six polyhedral chocolate compartments and one elongated card slot, precisely matching the shape of the chocolates. The entire surface is then fully wrapped in matte black flocking, providing cushioning, shock absorption, scratch resistance, and a striking black‑gold aesthetic. The dimensions (for the octagonal outer box, approximately 280×120×60mm) and slot depth can all be customized to match the customer’s actual product. The box’s length, width, and height can also be adjusted by retooling the mold. The printing employs spot colors with a CMYK‑based color‑blocking background. The cocoa branches and leaves, the hexagonal LOGO, and the “Black Gold Cocoa” text are meticulously overprinted, complemented by uniform bronzed gold or bright gold foil stamping. An optional embossing process lends the design a three‑dimensional relief, significantly elevating its premium appeal. The surface is coated with a matte‑touch film or touch‑sensory oil, offering fingerprint‑resistant and scratch‑proof protection with a soft, warm feel. The complete post‑press process includes die‑cutting, side‑folding and gluing, EVA slot milling and flocking, as well as final inspection, ensuring that each finished product opens and closes with just the right tension and that the lid aligns neatly. Whether it’s a Valentine’s Day confession, wedding favors, or corporate gifts, this fully customizable gift box perfectly embodies your taste and heartfelt sentiments.

Technical Specifications

Size Finished outer dimensions of the long octagonal box (length × width between short sides × height): 280mm × 120mm × 60mm. The lid‑to‑tray fit clearance is 1~1.5mm, with a comfortably snug opening and closing action; the lid aligns neatly without looseness or binding. The chocolate trays and elongated slots can be adjusted in length, width, and depth to match the actual dimensions of the customer’s chocolates; the overall length, width, and height of the box can also be modified by retooling.
Lining structure Base material: High-density EVA foam with a density of 38°~45°, CNC-milled to create six multi-faceted chocolate slots and one elongated card slot, precisely matching the contours of diamond-shaped chocolates. Surface finish: Full-wrap matte black flocking for cushioning, shock absorption, and scratch protection, enhancing the luxurious black-and-gold aesthetic.
Printing process Base color: Natural brown/black on art paper—no full‑coverage printing required; the coated‑paper version features spot‑color printing in CMYK, with deep brown and black used as contrasting base tones.

Box body support substrate The lid and the surrounding bottom panel are made of thickened double-gray cardboard with a thickness of 2.0mm~2.5mm. The long, beveled edges remain crisp and firm, resisting bending or collapse even after repeated opening and closing over time.
Surface post-processing technology Box exterior: Matte‑touch lamination/tactile‑feel spray coating, fingerprint‑resistant and scratch‑proof, with a warm, smooth hand feel; for cost‑effective mass production, standard matte BOPP film is available. Hot foil stamping in bronze gold or bright gold is applied uniformly to all border lines, cocoa branches and leaves, the LOGO, and the thematic text, creating a strong retro black‑and‑gold aesthetic. Optional upgrade: The cocoa branch and leaf motif can be enhanced with embossing and debossing, producing a three‑dimensional relief effect that significantly elevates the gift box’s premium appeal.
