Get Highly Functional Custom Chinese Takeout Boxes

For restaurants, this box is a workhorse. Its vertical design holds a surprising amount of food while taking up minimal table or bag space. It unfolds into a plate, offering a convenient eating experience anywhere.

For non-food brands, the takeout box is a “novelty” package that sparks joy. It’s uniquely shaped, has a built-in handle, and is associated with “treats.” Using a custom printed takeout box for cookies, or party favors instantly makes the product feel fun and gift-worthy.

Considerations for Chinese Takeout Boxes

Packaging Material for Takeout Boxes

We use materials designed to hold liquids and heat, which make the boxes perfect for takeout Chinese food.

• SBS Paperboard: The standard for white boxes. It provides a crisp, clean canvas for vibrant, full-color printing.

• Kraft Board: The eco-friendly choice. Its natural brown color gives an organic, rustic vibe perfect for sustainable brands.

• Poly-Coating (PE): Essential for food use. The interior coating prevents the paper from absorbing grease or getting soggy from steam.

Accurate Size and Style

Takeout boxes are sized by fluid ounces and best food packaging for all tasty creations.

• Wire Handle: The traditional style. Sturdy and iconic, but not microwave safe.

• Microwave Safe (Hook Handle): Uses a paper fold/hook mechanism instead of wire. Allows customers to reheat leftovers directly in the box.

• Tab Lock: No handle, just a folding top. Great for stacking in delivery bags.

Common Dimensions

• 8 oz (Small): Rice side, dipping sauces, or single truffle favor.

• 16 oz (Pint): Small entree, appetizer, or cupcake.

• 26 oz (Quart): The standard “noodle box” size. Fits a full meal.

• 32 oz (Large): Family size portion.

Get Takeout Boxes That Deliver

The unique shape offers four trapezoidal panels for branding where you can print your brand name, display your logo and artwork easily.

• 360-Degree Branding: Wrap your logo or pattern around the entire pail for visibility from every angle.

• Top Flap Messaging: Print a “Enjoy!” or “Thank You” message on the top flaps that the customer sees when opening the box.

• Cultural/Themed Art: Whether traditional motifs or modern pop art, the box canvas supports complex designs.

Premium Finish for Favors & Gifts

Turn a food container into a luxury gift box that makes Chinese takeout boxes distinctive.

• Foil Stamping: Gold or silver foil looks incredible on a black or red takeout box for weddings or New Year’s events.

• Matte Finish: A non-glossy coating gives the box a sophisticated, modern feel.

• Ribbon Accessories: Tie a ribbon to the wire handle for an instant gift-wrap effect.

Chinese Takeout Boxes in a Nutshell

• Durability: Holds hot, heavy, and wet foods securely.

• Convenience: Built-in handle and plate-convertible design.

• Iconic: A shape that customers instantly recognize and love.
