Printed Sample
The color check:
- Shows printed colors and print quality
- Confirms colors match your design
- Checks print clarity
- Good for color approval
When to use: After design, before printing. Good for confirming colors and print quality.
Blank Sample
The strength check:
- Shows flute type and board strength
- Confirms box folds correctly
- Checks dimensions and stack strength
- Good for strength approval
When to use: Before bulk order. The most important step — this confirms the box fits and protects your product.
Production Sample
The quality check:
- First boxes from production line
- Confirms bulk quality
- Checks consistency
- Approves full run
When to use: At the start of production. Good for confirming bulk quality matches the sample.
What to Check on a Sample
- Flute type — Is the flute right for your product weight?
- Board thickness — Is the board thick enough?
- Print color — Do colors match your design?
- Box size — Does it fit your product?
- Fold quality — Does the box fold cleanly?
- Edge quality — Are edges clean and cut properly?

Common Corrugated Box Sample Mistakes
- Ignorar amostras — Bulk order arrives and it’s wrong
- Only printed sample, no blank — Colors look right but box is too weak
- Not checking product fit — O produto não cabe na caixa
- Sem aprovação da amostra — Production starts without sign-off
- Same sample for all sizes — Each size needs its own sample
