Festive & Occasion Packaging · Made to order
Thirty drawers in a plain rectangular body with a lantern and crescent frieze in gold across the top band. No shaped panels, no waste corners, and a carton that holds a sensible number of units.

Overview
Every shaped panel costs twice. Once at the die, and once at the sheet, because the cut-out area outside the shape cannot be used for anything else. A rectangular cabinet has neither cost. It is why the rectangular version is the one to build when the run is large, and it is why a distributor will pick it over an arch without being asked.
The same logic runs all the way to the carton. A rectangular body stacks with no void filler, nests predictably and lets the carton size land on a standard pallet footprint instead of a bespoke one. When you are shipping thirty-drawer cabinets by the pallet, the difference between a carton that tiles a pallet and one that does not is a line in your freight cost that has nothing to do with the packaging.
Rectangular does not mean plain. The lantern and crescent sit as gold foil linework on a frieze across the top band, which is a single flat print and stamp position — the cheapest place on the whole product to look expensive. The base band stays clear for your own mark. Between the frieze and the base band the product still has two branded surfaces, without either of them needing a shaped panel.
Specification
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Structure | Rectangular rigid cabinet with a flat lid over a block of thirty drawers |
| Drawer count | Thirty (five rows of six) |
| Frieze | Lantern and crescent as gold foil linework across the top band |
| Base band | Left clear for a foiled or printed brand mark |
| Drawer fronts | Numbered 1–30 by foil or print, or left unmarked |
| Board | Greyboard with a printed or plain wrap; the flat panel allows a lighter grade than an arched version of the same size |
| Packing | Cartons specified to tile a standard pallet footprint where the run allows |
| MOQ | On request — confirmed once the drawer cavity and carton spec are fixed |
| Lead time | 12–18 days after sample approval, before transit |
Variants
Thirty is standard because the month is twenty-nine or thirty days. A twenty-four drawer version exists for a shorter promotional window, and is a cheaper unit for the same reason any lower count is cheaper.
The lantern and crescent, or your own linework, in the same single flat stamp position. One position means one die, which is why changing the motif here does not change the price the way it does on a shaped panel.
Foiled 1–30, printed, or unmarked. Printed numbering on a volume run is the cheaper route; foil is what makes a small run read as premium.
Specify the units per carton and we will work the carton to the pallet rather than the pallet to the carton. It is the single most effective thing a buyer can do to the freight line.
Materials
| Option | What it means |
|---|---|
| Flat-panel board | A flat lid and flat sides carry more stiffness per gram than shaped panels, so the same size can step down a board grade compared with an arched equivalent. |
| Recycled greyboard core | The structural core, wrapped. Where a buyer needs a specific recycled content, ask for the current certificate for the exact board in your specification. |
| Wrap | Printed or plain, folded flat. No shaped blank, so the wrap can be run as a normal sheet and the artwork can be a simple layout. |
| Foil | One frieze position in gold, silver or rose gold. Priced by stamped area, so a fine outline motif costs less than a filled one. |
Best for
A flat footprint that sits on a shelf without a stand, and a unit price that survives a retail margin. The version built for a promotional endcap.
Purchased by the pallet rather than by the unit. The carton spec is the part of this product a distributor will ask about first.
Hundreds of units to one address, which makes the carton geometry the deciding factor rather than the finish.
A rectangular cabinet sits in a rectangular mailer with no shaped void filler. The version to choose when the product is shipped one at a time.
Sizing
| Dimension | Guidance |
|---|---|
| Overall size | Set by the drawer cavity and the count. Thirty drawers in five rows of six needs roughly six cavity widths across, plus the side walls and the frieze. |
| Top frieze | A single flat band above the drawer block. Deep enough to hold a legible motif, shallow enough that it does not read as an empty margin. |
| Carton maths | Send the units per carton and the destination. Working the carton to a standard pallet footprint is worth doing before the artwork is approved, not after. |
| Base band | Left clear for your mark. Its height is usually set by the difference between the drawer block and the body rather than by design. |

A Ramadan countdown cabinet with an arched top over a thirty-drawer block, crescent and star foil on the arched panel. Thirty is the safe count: the month runs twenty-nine or thirty days depending on the sighting, so a thirty-drawer array is right in both years. The arch is a shaped wrap, which is what separates this from the rectangular version on price.
A rigid advent case with a grid of 24 drawers, each front numbered in foil or print. Pulls in ribbon, die-cut finger hole or a metal ring; the shell takes the same wrapping and finishing as any of our rigid boxes, so a festive pattern, a deboss or a single foiled mark all apply. What decides the price is the grid: how many drawers, how big each cavity is, and how much hand assembly that adds.
A rigid cabinet with two doors closing over a 24-drawer block. Closed, it photographs and shelves as one box; the drawer array is the reveal. Quiet magnet or ribbon-tied closure, printed door interiors, and a base compartment if the block does not fill the body. The doors add a panel and a hinge allowance, and both show up in the price.
