Auto Bottom Boxes: Fold Fast, Pack Faster

If you are in a fast paced industry where every second counts, auto bottom boxes could be your new best friend. These boxes come with a pre-glued bottom that snaps into shape instantly, giving you strong, ready-to-pack packaging in a matter of seconds. At D Custom Boxes, we build auto bottom boxes for all kinds of products from cosmetics or wellness items to electronics and retail products. Whether you are running a small business or a high operation company, this packaging style helps you save time without cutting corners on quality or looks. What is an Auto Bottom Box? An auto bottom box (sometimes called an auto lock bottom) is a folding carton designed with a glued base that locks into place when you pop it open. Unlike traditional tuck-style boxes, there is no fiddling with flaps or needing tape for the bottom it’s already secured. You just open it, the bottom clicks into place, and it’s ready to go. The top can be a tuck-in flap, a sealed flap, or customized to match your needs. Why Use Auto Bottom Boxes? These boxes are all about speed and convenience, without sacrificing structure. Here’s why brands love them:
  • Pre-Assembled Bottom: The base comes pre glued, which means faster packing and zero taping.
  • Strong and Durable: Great for holding medium to heavier items, think glass jars, beauty kits, supplements, or electronics.
  • Time Saver for High Volumes: When you are packing hundreds of units, every second adds up. Auto bottoms help you work smarter, not harder.
  • Clean, Professional Look: With custom printing and finishing, they don’t just work, they look great doing it.
