Dragon Boat Festival Gift Boxes

Specify how the zongzi reaches the gift box

For Dragon Boat Festival gifts, distinguish the food's own packaging from its outer presentation. A wrapped zongzi, a vacuum-packed portion and a retail carton have different outlines and handling requirements. State which finished form will be loaded into the gift box and provide a photograph with dimensions.

The gift box should be developed around the agreed inner pack. Do not assume that a decorative paper box can provide the food's sealing, storage or temperature-control function. Those requirements need appropriate specifications for the food, inner packaging and delivery method.

Map the irregular shapes and uneven weights

Arrange the actual portions before drawing a rectangular grid. A pointed package may need a different orientation from the item beside it, and several heavy portions can concentrate the load on a small area. Include any sauce jar, tea pack or other accessory in the layout rather than adding it after the insert has been approved.

Rectangular folding gift boxes in solid colors and lift-off gift boxes are outer-format references. The selected base, retaining arrangement and carrying method must be reviewed with the filled set. A catalog photo of an empty box does not demonstrate the load of your zongzi assortment.

Review lifting as a complete action

Observe how the filled presentation is raised from the packing table, placed in a carrier and handed to the recipient. Identify any base movement, shifting portions or difficulty finding a secure grip. If a handle is proposed, assess it as part of the complete sample and identify which component provides the load path.

• Record the mass of every finished inner pack.
• Mark the intended upright direction on the loading plan.
• Keep heavy accessories from bearing on soft food packages.
• Check how the first portion is removed while the rest remain supported.

Make product identification easy after gifting

Where the set contains several flavors, keep their identification accessible without unwrapping every portion. Place any handling information and the greeting so that they can be read in the intended opening orientation. The customer should approve cultural imagery and text before printing.

Prepare a sample brief with the sealed products, total filled mass, proposed component list and destination. Use the packaging brief format to separate confirmed details from requested proposals. A later mooncake gift project should receive its own insert review even if the exterior belongs to the same brand family.
