Work through the task
- Start from the approved blank and usable sheet dimensions. Finished box dimensions alone do not describe flaps or the dieline.
- Calculate confirmed boxes per sheet and sheets required, keeping layout constraints and the gross-input waste convention explicit.
- Compare finished-box quotations at the purchased quantity, including MOQ, printing scope, freight and first-order tooling.

Open calculator →A worked example
A verified yield of six boxes per sheet needs 2,000 sheets for 12,000 boxes before process loss. At EUR 120 per thousand finished boxes, their quoted material/conversion subtotal is EUR 1,440; it is a different boundary from a sheet-only quote.
Use your supplier specification and quotation. These numbers demonstrate the arithmetic; they are not market prices or a packaging suitability assessment.
