Custom 30cl Candle Boxes UK — 82 × 82 × 101 mm Internal Cavity
Glass candle jars need packaging that accounts for their weight, dimensions and fragility. A carton that leaves too much space allows the vessel to move; a box that is too tight can put pressure on the glass or make packing difficult.
Product Boxes UK offers custom 30cl candle packaging designed around a defined internal cavity, protective liner and branded outer carton. This format is intended for compatible 30cl glass tumblers used by candle makers, home fragrance brands and private-label manufacturers.
The specified 82 × 82 × 101 mm dimensions refer to the clear usable space inside the finished box after the liner is fitted—not the external carton measurements. This gives buyers a consistent dimensional reference when checking their jar.
Explore our wider custom candle boxes range for alternative candle sizes and styles. For this format, the priorities are a measured fit, a suitable base and protection that works for the filled candle rather than the empty glass alone.
Check Your 30cl Glass Dimensions Before Ordering
A 30cl capacity does not guarantee that every tumbler will fit the same box. Glass manufacturers use different diameters, heights, base profiles and lid designs, so the finished vessel should be measured before artwork and production are approved.
For this box format, the design reference is a tumbler measuring up to approximately 78 mm in diameter and 92 mm high without its lid. An 82 mm internal width provides approximately 2 mm of clearance on each side, while the 101 mm internal height leaves about 9 mm above a 92 mm-high glass. These figures describe the dimensional fit, not a guarantee that every 30cl candle will be compatible.
Measure the widest part of the glass and include the lid in the overall packed height if the candle will be boxed with it attached. Also check raised bases, glass rims and any decorative components.
If your vessel exceeds the stated reference dimensions, request a revised box specification instead of forcing it into the standard format. A confirmed fit makes packing easier and reduces the risk of the glass pressing against the liner or lid.
Corrugated Liners and a Reinforced Base for Glass Protection
Custom 30cl candle boxes with corrugated liners combine a printed outer carton with an internal structure that helps position the jar. The outer carton carries the branding; the liner creates a closer fit around the vessel and helps reduce direct contact with the box walls.
For a filled candle with a target packed weight of around 500 g, the recommended starting construction is a printed 350 GSM folding carton, a fitted E-flute corrugated liner and a reinforced auto-lock base. This is a proposed design specification, not a tested load rating. The finished candle should be weighed, and the box should be assessed using a packed sample before being approved for courier distribution.
| Component | Recommended specification | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Outer carton | 350 GSM printed folding board | Provides the branded retail surface |
| Internal liner | Die-cut E-flute corrugated board | Positions the glass and adds cushioning |
| Base | Reinforced auto-lock construction | Supports the filled candle during handling |
| Courier protection | A suitably sized outer corrugated mailer | Adds a separate layer of protection for delivery |
The dimensions in this product brief refer to the clear internal cavity after the liner is fitted. The outer box will therefore be larger. This distinction matters when checking storage space, shipping dimensions and the fit of the complete package.
For courier orders, place the finished candle box inside an appropriately sized custom mailer box and assess the complete pack for the intended shipping conditions. A presentation carton and a tested transit pack perform different roles; a liner should not be treated as proof against every drop or impact.
Full-Colour Printing and Finishes for Candle Brands
A consistent packaging design helps customers recognise your fragrance range across different scents, collections and retail channels. The 30cl candle box with full-colour printing option can incorporate your logo, fragrance name, brand colours and approved product artwork.
Available print and finish choices include:
- CMYK printing: For full-colour graphics, illustrations and detailed artwork.
- Pantone colour matching: Helps reproduce established brand colours within normal production tolerances.
- Gold or rose-gold foil stamping: Adds a metallic detail to logos and fragrance names.
- Soft-touch lamination: Creates a smooth, tactile finish on compatible board.
- Spot UV: Adds glossy highlights to selected design elements.
- Matte finishes: Provide a subdued appearance for minimalist or premium candle packaging.
Artwork should be positioned around the approved dieline, keeping logos and text clear of folds, cut lines and glue areas. A digital proof lets you review layout before printing, while a physical sample is useful for checking the actual construction and fit.
Wax and fragrance oils can mark untreated paperboard if they come into contact with the surface. If your candle design or handling process creates this risk, discuss a suitable inner barrier or coating and check that it is compatible with the selected board and packaging use.
For related protective components, our branded protective packaging range provides additional options to consider when specifying the finished shipment.
The 500 g figure is a preliminary design target. The actual packed weight will depend on the glass, wax, lid, label and any additional components. The construction should be validated using the finished candle before being described as tested or guaranteed for transit.
Wholesale Ordering for 30cl Candle Packaging
For candle makers planning repeat production, packaging needs to balance unit cost, presentation and the time required to pack orders. Custom 30cl candle packaging wholesale is available to discuss for eligible printed-carton and liner specifications.
Minimum quantities start from 100 units for eligible designs. The unit price depends on the order quantity, board, printing, finishing and liner construction, so your quotation should set out the complete specification and applicable charges.
To request a quote, provide:
- The glass diameter and height, including lid measurements.
