Carton Sample Room, Kwun Chung
CHINA CITY INTL (HK) LIMITED keeps a working sample room where every board grade is checked against the flute, every folded carton is folded by hand before a run is quoted, and every finished box is strapped and counted against a loading list. We supply corrugated cartons, die-cut inserts and protective packaging to exporters and e-commerce sellers across Kowloon, and we coordinate consolidated deliveries from our Tai Lin Pai Road counter at Rm I-1 4/F GOLDEN DRAGON INDL CTR BLK 2, 162-170 TAI LIN PAI RD, Kwun Chung, Hong Kong.
The room is small on purpose. A sample bench, a sheet rack, a tape gun and a stack of finished boxes tell you more about a supplier than any brochure, because packaging is measured in millimetres, board grades and edge crush values rather than in adjectives.
Six Draws from the Board Wall
Each sheet below is pinned to our sample board in the order a job moves across the bench. Read them as a route through the packroom: board first, then inserts, then protection, then print, then proof, then the consolidated delivery that carries it all out of Kowloon.
Single wall, double wall and heavy triple wall cartons cut to the sizes exporters actually ship. We hold common board grades for fast repeats and cut specials to a supplied sample. Every batch is checked for board thickness, score depth and square corners before it is counted onto a pallet.
Repeat buyers can lock a standing carton size so reorders skip the drawing stage entirely.
Cell partitions, corner pads, tray inserts and layer dividers die-cut to hold fragile goods apart in transit. We work from your product dimensions and a drop risk assessment rather than a stock list, so the insert fits the item and the carton wall at the same time.
Inserts are flat-packed for storage and assembled on your packing line.
Void fill, edge protectors, foam wrap, moisture liners and cushioning for electronics, ceramics and machined parts. The aim is not to add material for its own sake but to put the right protection where a parcel takes its knocks on the last mile.
We match protection to the carton grade so nothing is over-specified and nothing is left bare.
One and two colour flexo print for brand marks, handling symbols, batch codes and barcodes on the outer face. We check print registration against a signed proof before the run is released to the line.
Retail cartons can carry multiple panels of print while shipping cartons stay plain and cheap.
A folded sample reaches you before any tooling is committed, so fit, score and flap length are agreed on the bench rather than discovered in a warehouse. Proof sheets for print sit beside the carton sample.
Nothing goes to a full run that has not been folded, filled and closed at least once in this room.
PROOF SIGNEDFinished cartons, inserts and protective stock are consolidated into a single staged delivery so your packers receive everything together. We prepare loading lists, pallet counts and markings that match the shipping documents.
Deliveries run from the Tai Lin Pai Road counter to addresses across Kowloon and onward to the terminals.
CHINA CITY INTL (HK) LIMITED opens its winter board stock slots for Kowloon exporters. Book a board grade, a carton size and a delivery window before the peak shipping weeks tighten stock.
Inside the Packroom
Packaging fails quietly. A carton that scores a few millimetres out of place will still look right on a shelf and still collapse on a pallet two weeks later. That is why our first investment was not a warehouse but a bench. CHINA CITY INTL (HK) LIMITED works from a sample room where a folded carton, a die-line sheet and a tape gun settle arguments that a price list cannot. When a buyer sends dimensions, we cut a sample, fold it, fill it, close it and measure the result. Only then does a quotation leave the room.
The company sits inside the wider computer and professional services economy of Hong Kong, which means the goods moving through this room are frequently the hardware, the components and the accessories that sit behind a system integration. Sensitive boards, monitors, dense machined brackets and the smaller fittings that accompany them all need cartons that fit tightly and protect consistently. We treat packaging as part of the logistics chain rather than an afterthought bolted onto the end of an order.
Every job begins with a board conversation. Single wall board suits light goods moving in their own outer. Double wall board carries stacked loads and longer journeys. Triple wall board answers for heavy machinery parts and export pallets that will be handled more than once. We check the edge crush rating, the liner quality and the moisture resistance that the route demands, then match a grade to it. Buyers who already run a favourite grade can tell us and we will hold that specification across repeats so the box that arrives next season behaves exactly like the one before it.
Die-cut inserts are where good packaging earns its keep. A partition that holds twelve small items apart will prevent more damage than a great deal of void fill, because it removes the movement rather than cushioning the result of it. We cut partitions, corner pads, tray inserts and layer dividers from the product dimensions you supply, then test the assembled insert inside a sample carton. The same method works for a run of optical instruments, a crate of ceramic blanks or a pallet of drive enclosures. You can read more about the insert work on our services page, where each of the six draws from the board wall is described in full.
Sample before stock. We fold a sample and sign a proof before a full run is committed, so the fit you approve is the fit you receive. Request a sample run through the services page or write to hello@chinacityintl.lol.
The route through the packroom is short and deliberate. You send dimensions, a product weight and a delivery window. We cut a sample carton and any inserts the job needs, fold them, and check the fit against your product. If print is involved, a proof sheet is prepared and signed at the bench. Only then do we quote the run, schedule the board and set a delivery slot. Finished cartons and inserts are consolidated, counted onto a loading list and dispatched from the Tai Lin Pai Road counter at Rm I-1 4/F GOLDEN DRAGON INDL CTR BLK 2, 162-170 TAI LIN PAI RD, Kwun Chung, Hong Kong. If you would like to walk through that sequence with us, the contact page carries the form and our working hours.
Our six services cover corrugated carton supply, die-cut inserts and partitions, protective packaging, printed carton runs, sample and proof service, and consolidated export delivery. Most jobs use three or four of them together. A repeating export order will typically sit on a standing carton size, a tested insert, a printed outer and a fixed delivery window, which lets us hold both the board grade and the schedule steady while volumes move.
Send your product dimensions, a rough annual quantity and the route your goods take. We will fold a sample, check the board grade and come back with a run that fits.
