Secure packaging, zero tape. Built for premium shipping.
Self-locking, double-walled custom mailer boxes that protect your products and assemble tape-free.
Secure your products in transit with these self-locking, double-walled corrugated shipping containers. Engineered with dual front locking tabs and protective side dust flaps, they assemble quickly without tape or glue. Design them with custom internal and external printing to build a cohesive brand experience directly on the box.
Tab Lock Mailer Boxes are one-piece, die-cut corrugated packaging containers designed for modern logistics. Also known as FEFCO 0427 or roll end tuck top mailers, these boxes feature a hinged lid, protective side dust flaps, and dual front tabs. The front tabs lock securely into engineered slots in the double-layered front wall of the box base. This physical latching mechanism builds a self-locking, double-walled structure on both the sides and the front when folded. You do not need packing tape, staples, or glue to assemble these shippers.
For online merchants, this design represents a practical balance of strength and presentation. The flat cardboard panels offer an uncluttered canvas for high-definition branding on both the interior and exterior surfaces. While stronger than simple shipping cartons, they assemble fast and help speed up shipping lines. They work well for shipping subscription kits, beauty products, electronics, and apparel.
Cubit manufactures these mailers using high-grade corrugated board designed to survive courier handling. We provide precise structural engineering so your packaging matches your exact product dimensions. Our local production reduces transit times and helps keep your delivery schedules on track.
