Window Boxes
Make a product sell itself. Dauxin’s custom window boxes (also called window cut-out boxes or display window boxes) let customers see and interact with your product while keeping it protected and beautifully merchandised. Window boxes are perfect for cosmetics, candles, toys, apparel, confectionery, electronics accessories, and any product that benefits from visual inspection at shelf or online.
Why window boxes?
Instant product visibility — A well-placed window reduces uncertainty and return rates by letting buyers view the product without opening the package. This drives conversion in retail and e-commerce.
Custom presentation — Combine cut-out shapes with full-color printing, foil, spot-UV, or soft-touch lamination for a premium look.
Protection options — Choose an open window for tactile experience or a printed/clear film (PVC/PLA) for extra protection against dust and moisture. Some suppliers even offer printing on the film.
Flexible for retail & shipping — Window boxes can be designed for shelf display, gift presentation, or e-commerce shipments with appropriate internal supports and spacing.

FAQs About Custom Window Boxes
A window box is a printed box with a die-cut opening (window) that shows part or all of the product inside. The window can be left open or covered with a clear/printed film for protection.
Common films are PVC and PLA (biodegradable alternatives). Many suppliers offer the option to print on the film for branded effects, or to leave the window open for tactile access.
Yes — we provide dieline templates and free design support to help you choose a window shape and placement that highlights your product and maintains structural integrity.
Window boxes can cost slightly more due to additional die-cutting and optional film lamination. However, the uplift in conversion and reduced returns often offsets the incremental cost. Volume pricing and simpler shapes lower per-unit cost.
Yes — digital proofs and physical samples/prototypes are available and strongly recommended, especially if the window involves special film or close tolerances.
We accept vector files (AI, EPS, PDF) and high-resolution raster images (≥300 dpi) in CMYK. Convert fonts to outlines and include dielines and bleed. Our art team can adjust files if needed.
Many window boxes are recyclable when using paperboard and no plastic film; if a plastic film is used, it may affect recyclability — biodegradable PLA films are more eco-friendly. We’ll recommend materials to meet your sustainability goals.
Typical production after proof approval ranges based on complexity; many suppliers list standard lead times from about 7–12 business days for straightforward window boxes. Complex printing, film lamination, or large runs may require longer. We’ll confirm exact timelines in your quote.
