Full Coverage Protection

Telescope boxes feature a lid that extends down over the base, providing complete side coverage and superior protection. Unlike shallow-lid designs, the telescoping lid creates a secure, dust-proof enclosure.

Ideal for Shipping and Storage

The overlapping construction adds structural rigidity and protects contents from dust, moisture, and handling damage. Telescope boxes are preferred for archival storage, product shipping, and long-term protection.

Versatile Depth Options

Lid depth is customizable from shallow overlap to full-depth coverage. Deeper lids provide more protection while shallow lids reduce material costs and offer quicker access.

Telescope Boxes FAQs

What is a telescope box?

A telescope box has a lid that fits over the base and extends down the sides, rather than just covering the top opening.

Why choose telescope over standard lid boxes?

Telescope boxes provide better dust protection, increased rigidity, and more secure closure than flush-lid designs.

How deep should telescope lids be?

Lid depth depends on protection needs - typically 1-3 inches for most applications, or full-depth for maximum security.

Are telescope boxes good for shipping?

Excellent! The overlapping construction adds strength and protection during transit.

Can telescope boxes be printed?

Yes! Both lid and base can be fully printed, creating continuous graphics when assembled.
