What to Pack for a Festival: Dragon Boat Festival Paper Box Packaging

Box with Handle – Zongzi with Twine

The continuous rainy season can make everything damp and bring a gloomy mood. However, receiving a Dragon Boat Festival gift box from my friend yesterday brightened my day! Its beautiful packaging lifted my spirits. Unpack my gift box, feel save to see an alluminum foam wrap my Zongzi. Can’t wait to eat! But as a professional paper packaging supplier, I am always look out for creative gift packaging. So let my camera capture the details first!

The Root of the Dragon Boat Festival

The Dragon Boat Festival, also known as Duanwu Festival, is a traditional Chinese holiday that occurs on the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar. It commemorates the life and death of the famous Chinese scholar Qu Yuan, a loyal minister of the State of Chu during the Warring States period. Falsely accused of treason and exiled, Qu Yuan drowned himself in the Miluo River in despair. The locals raced out in their boats to save him, which is believed to be the origin of dragon boat races. They also threw rice into the river to prevent fish from eating Qu Yuan’s body, leading to the tradition of eating zongzi (sticky rice dumplings) during the festival.

The Significance of Custom Boxes and Packaging

During the Dragon Boat Festival, custom boxes and packaging play a key role in presenting gifts, treats, and traditional items associated with the holiday. These meticulously crafted boxes not only serve as containers but also symbolize cultural values and convey well-wishes. Intricate patterns and decorative elements are incorporated into Dragon Boat Festival packaging to create an eye-catching and elegant presentation. This can include embossed textures, foil stamping, spot UV, laser-cut designs, and intricate patterns inspired by traditional Chinese art and craftsmanship.

Inspired by Tradition: Box with a handle

The carrier style boxes with handle are inspired by the way zongzi is tied. Zongzi is securely tied with bamboo leaves and twine to hold its shape and prevent the contents from spilling out during cooking. Typically, five zongzi are bundled together, making them easy to carry. Thus, a box with a handle for packing zongzi is widely practiced.

Round Gift Boxes Around Us

Buddhism believes that the round is full and perfect, it is the most beautiful figure in reality.

In life, we often see the use of some “circles”, round arches, round windows, round tables, and even a variety of round objects, the beauty and charm of the circle, have been applied to the products by the designers.

From the perspective of aesthetics, the circle represents movement, stretch, smoothness, softness, turn, liveliness, harmony, perfection, and contains a rich sense of beauty.

In the packaging industry, the application of the circle is also very extensive. The most intuitive application is our common round box. From the material point of view, there are plastic round boxes, metal tin boxes, paper tube round boxes. Classified from the style, there are beading edges round box, hand-made round box with flat edges.

Our company mainly produces paper gift boxes, so the “circle” application is on the round gift box. From the large hat gift box to the small incense gift box. Here is a brief introduction for the round box styles:

1. Cylinder box with curling edges. We called it beading edged Cylinder box which is made by machine. Most of these paper cycliner boxes are equipped with abrasive tools. This is very common cylinders. The round tube that can be made from the reel mold is stable in shape. This box is generally not very big in size. Because any mold is expensive. If you could not find the exisiting mold to make your tube, you will need to pay one thousand dollars for a new size mold. Most of our existing round tubes are porpular used for tea cans, gifts, perfume bottles, etc. The following pictures are for your reference: Waterford Holiday Heirlooms Box

2. Round Gift Box, flat edge. Due to the size and quantity limitations, this type of box is mostly hand-embedded. The falt edges should be wrapped manually and pressing by machine. Below the video to show you how we press the wrapping paper to make sure there is no empty space between glue and paper (bubble). Of course, if the quantity is more than more than 100K, a mold will save cost and make sure every box with good round shape.
