But there is almost always one rule: the simpler the packaging and the larger the quantity, the cheaper it is. The lowest price usually comes from a simple construction, 1\u20132 color printing, no lamination and special finishes, and larger runs (to spread the production setup costs).<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-cz-2\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom packaging?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">MOQ depends mainly on the type of packaging, material, and printing technology. On our website you can find the MOQ listed for each product category. If the MOQ is too high for you, write to us \u2014 we can often propose an alternative or come up with a solution that makes sense even for a smaller run.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-cz-3\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\">What affects the price the most: size, material, printing, or quantity?<\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">In practice, it\u2019s always a combination of all four factors. But two tend to have the biggest impact: quantity (because it significantly changes the price per piece) and printing complexity (number of colors, number of printed sides, and requirements for registration accuracy). Size and material are key mainly for rigid or shipping packaging, where construction and strength often cost more than the artwork itself.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Custom bags and other bespoke packaging are not priced \u201cby gut feel.\u201d The price of custom packaging is created by a combination of technical and process variables that have a direct impact on material, production, and the final functionality of the packaging.
