Stackable injection molding box

Feature

Design & Engineering Interpretation

Custom Stackable

Interlocking Lid & Base: The bottom of each box features a recessed channel, and the lid has a corresponding lip. This creates a secure, non-slip stack, whether boxes are identical or different sizes. Modular Sizing: Boxes are designed in multiples (e.g., 1x, 2x, 4x base footprint) to fit together perfectly in drawers, on shelves, or in cabinets.

Sustainable

Material Choice (PP/PET): Both are widely recyclable. Monomer Material Design: Using a single material (or highly compatible ones) simplifies the end-of-life recycling process. Durability: A long-lasting product reduces the need for replacement. Minimalist Design: Reduces plastic use per unit.

Durable

Material Grade: Use impact-modified PP or high-clarity PET for superior shatter resistance compared to PS or acrylic. Ribbed Structure: Incorporate subtle reinforcing ribs into the mold design on larger flat surfaces to prevent warping and increase load-bearing capacity.

Transparent

Crystal-Clear Grade Resin: Specify high-clarity, low-haze PP (can be challenging) or PET (excellent inherent clarity). This allows for immediate visual identification of contents. The transparency emphasizes the modern, clean aesthetic.

Modern

Clean Lines & Frosted Finish: Avoid glossy finishes. A slight matte or frosted texture on the transparent plastic softens the appearance, reduces fingerprints, and adds a premium feel. Rounded Corners: For safety and a softer visual language. Integrated Labeling: A sleek, recessed area on the short side for a label (e.g., dry-erase, clip-on).

Multifunction

Versatile Sizing Kit: Sell in sets of various sizes. Accessory Compatibility: Offer optional divider inserts, tray lids, or base plates with wheels for under-bed storage. The uniform design allows a single small box to be a pen holder on a desk and a parts organizer in a workshop.

Injection Technics

High-Precision Mold: Essential for the interlocking stackable features to work perfectly every time. Hot Runner System: Recommended for efficiency and to reduce plastic waste (sprues). Textured Mold Surface: To achieve the desired matte/frosted finish without post-processing.

Customized Color

Color Tinting: Offer the option to produce boxes in tinted transparent colors (e.g., smoke gray, light blue, amber) while maintaining translucency. This is excellent for color-coding different categories of sundries without losing the visual accessibility of the contents.
