Now that the size and shape of the box has been designed as well as the sleeve and the branding on it, the right material for the packaging still needs to be chosen. Ideally a gray box would be made. This worked however it was mounting board that was used with a colour layer glued on top. Even though the colour was perfect the top layer peeled off. Another two different materials have been tried and these include a thick card and single core cardboard. I feel this should work better than the double core cardboard.
Images of the card and the single core cardboard are shown open, closed and with a sleeve on them:
At the moment the cardboard is the best option and provides a clean finish and still fits in with the sleeve, however, I am going to test a double core cardboard and see if this gives better results and a cleaner fold.
