What moves the price

For barcode carton, the drivers are dimensions, board caliper, finish, print colors — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.

For barcode cartons, the biggest price drivers are board grade/caliper, print coverage, finish, and whether the barcode is variable serialized or static. Real wholesale supplier routes that are most realistic are packaging wholesalers for short-to-mid runs and import/landed-equivalent folding-carton suppliers for larger runs; pricing generally drops as setup and tooling are spread across more units. The 10,000+ tiers are best supported by published carton pricing examples and broader wholesale packaging guidance, while lower tiers are inferred from the same supplier-style pricing curve and should be treated as approximate.

Also known as: data matrix carton, serialized carton, track and trace carton.
