Why Work With Fantastic Mr. Box for Trade Show Kit Packaging?

Packaging only works when it is designed around the product and built to perform consistently. We focus on structure, fit and repeatability, so your packaging is reliable to pack, ship and open every time.

We are a UK-based packaging company with over 35 years of experience in structural design, artwork and production. All packaging is manufactured in Britain using FSC accredited, recyclable materials.

  • Stage 1: Send your products and brief

  • Stage 2: Plain sample for structural sign-off

  • Stage 3: Artwork print-ready files

  • Stage 4: 3D visual for approval

  • Stage 5: Production typically four weeks

  • Stage 6: Fulfilment if required

  • Yes. Our trade show kit packaging is designed and manufactured in the UK, giving you better control over quality, communication and lead times. This is especially useful when packaging needs to be developed around exhibitions, trade shows, product demonstrations, launch activity or stakeholder approval stages.

  • Yes. We design trade show kits around the actual products supplied, rather than working from guesswork. This helps with presentation, protection and fit, especially when the kit includes product samples, bottles, jars, components, accessories, printed inserts, sales materials or display items.

  • Yes. We can work with your existing brand guidelines and brand assets, including fonts, colours, logos, lock-ups, artwork references and event messaging. This helps make the trade show kit feel consistent with the wider brand, exhibition stand, product range and sales presentation.

  • Yes. We can review the structure, materials, print finishes and internal layout to help make trade show kits feel more premium and considered. This can include branded sleeves, internal print, card fitments, foiling, embossing, product reveals, printed inserts and more structured opening sequences.

  • Yes. Trade show kits are often produced in lower quantities because they are usually designed for events, exhibitions, sales teams, product demonstrations, buyer meetings or selected prospects. These projects are normally more bespoke and event-led, so the packaging is designed around the budget, contents and commercial objective.

  • Yes. We can help with kitting, assembly and fulfilment where required. This can include packing the products into the trade show kits, adding printed inserts or sales materials, applying labels and preparing the boxes for bulk delivery or individual distribution.

  • Yes. Sustainability is considered as part of the design process. We can use FSC materials, recyclable boards and card fitments where possible, while still making sure the packaging feels premium, protects the contents and supports the event or sales presentation.

  • Our standard production lead time is around four weeks from artwork sign-off, depending on the packaging format, quantity and finish. Before production, we usually create a plain sample for approval, so the structure, size and product fit can be checked before artwork is finalised.

You receive tracking links and a despatch report for every shipment.

Sustainable Materials and Finishes for Shows

Exhibition kits benefit from materials that last the week and respect the spec. We choose FSC boards, recyclable card fitments, and sustainable inks and coatings, adding finishes such as foil, emboss, spot gloss, and soft-touch laminates. UK-made production helps avoid long-haul emissions. At FMB we guide finishes that stand up to events without over-specifying.

  • FSC-certified boards and recyclable card fitments as standard

  • Sustainable inks and coatings specified by default

  • Finish swatches and a clear material spec before sign-off

  • Spot gloss, foil, emboss or deboss, and soft-touch laminates

  • UK-made production that avoids long haul freight emissions
