Great Ways To Use Hinged Plastic Boxes For Packaging & Display

Searching for just the right plastic containers to store, ship, and showcase your products? There are so many options that it can seem a bit overwhelming! But when it comes to versatility, a hinged container is one of the most reliable and popular choices.

An attached lid means there’s no risk of misplacing it, and hinges offer an easy-open alternative to fitted lids. Their locking capability secures items inside, ensuring that both container and product are safely joined.

But even hinged plastic boxes come in a variety of shapes, styles and options, so we’ve collected some common and even some not-so-common uses to inspire you. These are some of the products our customers rely on our hinged boxes to protect and showcase. See if any of these ideas inspire you to use this box style for your products.

Golf Balls And Accessories

At 2″ x 2″ square, our hinged G690 (https://www.plasticboxes.com/products/2-x-2) is a great size for showcasing a prized golf ball to commemorate a successful tournament or that last hole in one. Or for particularly avid golfers, the G2600 (https://www.plasticboxes.com/products/10-38-x-6) can hold an entire series of balls, making an excellent showpiece for collectibles.

The G790 (https://www.plasticboxes.com/products/2-78-x-2) is the just the right size for holding a golf ball marker and is particularly suited for retail display and shipping.

Fit any of these boxes with a custom foam insert available in a variety of colors and you’ve got packaging worthy of any sports enthusiast.

Game Pieces

For games and toys, our hinged 800 series (https://www.plasticboxes.com/products/3-12-x-2-916) can hold everything from decks of playing cards to dice. Whether they’re destined for casinos or kids’ parties, products are easily shipped, professionally displayed, and safely contained.

But that’s not all – when it comes to small parts, hinged plastic boxes can accommodate just about any shape and quantity. Use them for pool cues, jacks, puzzle pieces, dominoes and more. They can go from warehouse, to store shelf, to Christmas stockings, to birthday parties, to game tables with ease.

Our rigid, hinged, and beautifully clear compartment containers (https://www.plasticboxes.com/categories/compartment-containers) can contain everything from poker chips to bingo chips, marbles, board game pieces, and whatever else you can imagine. They can be imprinted and branded with your choice of logo or artwork, stacked, shrink wrapped and more.

Fashion, Costumes And Jewelry

Hinged boxes are a classic choice for earrings, pins, necklaces and other wearables. Our square hinged boxes, like the 1×1 square (https://www.plasticboxes.com/products/1-x-1) or 2×2 container (https://www.plasticboxes.com/products/2-x-2), which work especially well with a flockboard insert, are ideally suited to hold earrings, necklaces or pins. Their locking feature keeps items secure and their crystal clear sides allow the product inside to shine.

For other accessories, our G1110 (https://www.plasticboxes.com/products/4-38-x-2-116) is a favorite for storing dramatic faux lashes. And our hinged boxes come in such a broad array of sizes that they can serve as home for Halloween and cosplay accessories like fangs, tiaras, long claws and nails. The hinges provide easy open-close access and the clear sides make contents easy to find when they’re needed.

Hunting Calls

Hunters will appreciate the hinged G250 (https://www.plasticboxes.com/products/1-58-x-2-18), perfect for housing hunting calls, from duck and turkey, to deer and big game.

These rigid plastic boxes are sturdy enough to stand up to being dropped or tossed in duffel bags, and secure hinges will ensure contents don’t spill. As with all of our boxes, they can be imprinted for a unique branding experience.
