Carton Sizing That Prevents Pleat Damage From the Wrong Dimensions
A carton 15 mm wider than the filter on each side gives the filter room to shift 15 mm in every lateral direction. On a normal parcel transit journey that shift happens repeatedly and the pleat folds at the point of contact with the carton wall on each movement. A correctly sized carton has enough clearance for the filter to sit without compression and not enough space for it to shift.
iBOX Factory sizes air filter cartons from your filter’s actual length, width, height, and pleat depth. Length and width are set to the frame dimensions. Height is set to the pleat depth plus a small clearance. The filter sits flat, the pleats are not compressed, and the frame edges do not contact the walls. Request a free air filter packaging sample and test the sizing with your actual filter before production.
Fitment and Replacement Interval on the Front Panel, Not the Back
Two Questions Every Air Filter Buyer Needs Answered Before Purchase
Does it fit my vehicle? When does it need replacing? A buyer at the retail shelf or reviewing an ecommerce listing needs both answers from the front panel without turning the box over. If the fitment list is on the back and the replacement interval is in the description, the buyer either picks the wrong filter or picks a competing product that communicates more clearly. iBOX Factory builds vehicle fitment and replacement intervals as the primary display elements on the front panel of every air filter carton.
Airflow Direction, Filter Type, and QR Code in Supporting Zones

Barcode on the largest flat face. Part number and compatibility list on the end panel for shelf sorting by the stockroom team. Our free design support team coordinates the full label hierarchy before print approval.
