My company has been doing business with PrintPac for over 22 years. They've provided excellent service at very competitive prices, and their personalized service is a refreshing change in today's automated environment. When we went through a plant relocation, PrintPac was there, working with us until we were back on our feet. I strongly recommend them for all your specialized box needs.
The right package, from the right plant, at the right price.
PrintPac takes your packaging to the manufacturer best suited to make it. We bid every job across a network of hundreds of national and local suppliers, then manage samples, proofs, production and delivery so you deal with one team from quote to dock.
One contact. Every substrate. No plant to protect.
A converter sells what its own presses can run. PrintPac isn't tied to any single factory, so every recommendation starts with your product, your volume and your budget. We gather competing bids, compare them side by side, and place the work where it delivers the best value.
Tell us what you're packing
Send a sample, a sketch, an existing spec, or just the product. We ask about shelf, shipping and fill line so nothing gets missed.
We shop the job
Your spec goes to the plants best equipped for it. You get a clear recommendation, not a pile of quotes to decode.
Hold it before you buy it
Prototypes, structural samples and press proofs come back for sign-off before a single production sheet runs.
We watch it to your dock
We track production and shipping, handle rush orders and reorders, and stay on the phone if anything changes.
From a 1-color label to a full retail display program.
In our business we use many specialized boxes, and filling our needs is just a matter of relaying a concept. PrintPac takes the ball from there with samples and quotes in record time.

Every recommendation balances four things.
We consider proximity to your fulfillment, the visual, tactile and spatial presentation of the package, and the cost per unit at your real volumes. The goal is packaging with the impact to earn a shopper's trust at the point of purchase, while keeping costs down and margins up.
Unit price at your volume
Multiple bids, honest comparisons, and options like gang runs or alternate board grades when they make sense.
Shelf impact
Print, coatings, foil, embossing and windows chosen for how the package will be seen and handled.
Arrives intact
Inserts, partitions, foam and corrugated grades matched to transit and stacking demands.
Close to where it's filled
Plants chosen with freight and lead time to your line in mind.
We apply the best packaging strategy for your industry.
Decades of work with companies of every size means we've likely packaged something close to your product already. A sampling of the industries we serve:
Four decades in. Customer service is still number one.
PrintPac has served product packaging needs since 1985. The company owes its growth and longevity to one idea: make the customer's job effortless in every respect.
That commitment to meeting and exceeding expectations has driven steady year-over-year growth, and it shows in the work ethic of a team that clients describe as friends as much as suppliers. Several of our relationships now span more than 25 years.
From our office in Laguna Niguel, we serve clients across Southern California, including Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties, and nationwide. Modern tools let us manage projects anywhere, but we're still happy to come to your location to pick up artwork or talk through what's next.

Buying custom packaging, explained.
Straight answers to what new clients ask most. Don't see yours? Call us at (949) 363-9955.
Doesn't using a packaging sourcing partner cost more?
Usually the opposite. Because we place a high volume of work across many plants, we know who runs each format most efficiently and what fair pricing looks like. Clients typically save through better-matched vendors, competitive bids and fewer costly reprints.
What are your minimum order quantities?
Minimums depend on the format and process. Folding cartons and rigid boxes can often be produced in short runs, while items that need custom tooling, such as thermoformed blisters or custom bottles, carry higher minimums. Tell us your target quantity and we'll find the plant whose sweet spot matches it.
How long does custom packaging take?
Typical production ranges after proof approval. Your quote confirms exact timing, and rush options are often available.
| Short-run folding cartons | 3–7 days |
| Folding cartons | 2–4 weeks |
| Corrugated displays | 2–3 weeks |
| Flexible pouches & bags | 3–6 weeks |
| Permanent POP displays | 6–8 weeks |
What are tooling and set-up charges?
Tooling is a one-time cost for items like cutting dies, embossing plates or thermoform molds that give your package its custom shape. Set-up covers preparing the press and equipment for your job. We spell both out in every quote, and existing tooling can often be reused on reorders.
Can you re-quote packaging we already buy?
Yes, and it's one of the most common ways clients start with us. Send a sample or your current spec sheet and we'll come back with competitive pricing, plus any suggestions to reduce cost or improve performance.
Do you help with packaging design?
We work with structural and graphic designers to develop dielines, mockups and print-ready art, or we can produce from your files. Either way, we review artwork against the dieline before it goes to proof.
Do you only work with Southern California companies?
No. We're based in Laguna Niguel and serve Los Angeles, Orange and San Diego counties closely, but we manage projects for clients nationwide.
Do you offer recyclable or sustainable options?
Many of our formats are recyclable, including paperboard cartons, corrugated, partitions and many foam inserts. We can recommend recycled-content board, right-sized structures and mono-material designs that simplify recycling.
