Foam Box: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $3.00 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.19 at volume, on a typical 20-day lead time. 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 foam box, the drivers are cable length, lock type, anchor type, cable diameter, head compatibility, coating material, material, hardness — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Pricing is most strongly driven by foam type and density (EPE/XLPE/EVA versus lower-cost foam), custom cut complexity, and whether the quote includes printed outer packaging or just the foam insert. Real supplier routes that look realistic are US wholesale packaging vendors for smaller runs and import-marketplace listings or trade-platform FOB quotes for higher volumes, where unit prices drop sharply with quantity. The most comparable published pricing found includes custom electronics foam inserts at $0.40 at 500–4,999, $0.29 at 5,000–9,999, and $0.19 at 10,000+ from a wholesale packaging supplier, plus electronics packaging quotes and foam shipper prices from protective packaging distributors and B2B marketplaces.
