Auto Lock Carton: wholesale price

A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.95 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.14 at volume. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price

For auto lock carton, the drivers are board caliper, bottom style, print coverage, finish, glue points, die-cut complexity, board grade, dimensions — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.

Published supplier pricing for auto-lock bottom cartons is sparse, so the ladder is anchored mainly on quoted wholesale folding-carton and auto-lock bottom box ranges from packaging vendors, plus one bulk auto-lock box FOB quote. In practice, board caliper, print coverage, coating/lamination, and die-cut complexity move price the most, while landed cost is also affected by freight and duty when sourcing offshore. Realistic supplier routes are U.S.-facing custom packaging brokers for small runs and Chinese export manufacturers for the best unit pricing at 5,000+ units.

Also known as: bottom lock carton, self locking carton, snap lock carton.
