Custom Tear Strip Mailer Boxes

A tear strip mailer box is a corrugated shipping box with a perforated strip built into the board. The box ships sealed, and the customer pulls the strip to open it cleanly without a knife or scissors. Some designs add a second adhesive strip so the same box can be resealed for returns.

A mailer that opens cleanly and can go back for returns

The tear strip is a narrow band of corrugated board between two perforated lines, with a printed pull tab at one end. The box is sealed with a peel-and-seal adhesive strip at packing, and the customer opens it by pulling the tab around the box.

Because nobody needs a blade, there is less risk of cutting the product inside, and the box stays intact. A second adhesive strip under the first one lets the customer close the same box again for a return, which saves the cost of sending a new mailer.

The outside and inside can both be printed, so the tear strip itself, the pull tab and the inside of the lid all carry the brand. Sizing the box to your product keeps the fit snug and reduces void fill and dimensional-weight shipping charges.

Brands order tear strip mailer boxes for e-commerce orders, apparel and shoes, subscription boxes, books and media.

  • Perforated tear strip, opens without tools
  • Optional second adhesive strip for returns
  • Printed outside and inside
  • Sized to your product to cut void fill

How it works

Options for tear strip mailer boxes

Strip layout

One tear strip around the box front, or a tear strip plus a second adhesive strip for resealing and returns.

Board

E-flute for lighter items and B-flute or double wall for heavier products, in kraft or white.

Printing

Logo and pattern outside, a message inside, and a printed pull tab so customers find the strip at once.

Closing

Peel-and-seal adhesive strip at packing, so no tape is needed.

Availability

Ask a specialist about minimums, strip placement and lead time for your box size.

FAQ

Tear Strip Mailer Boxes FAQs

Still unsure? Ask a packaging specialist.

How do you open a tear strip box?
Pull the printed tab and tear the strip around the box. The lid comes free cleanly, without a knife.
Can the box be reused for returns?
Yes, if you add a second adhesive strip. The customer peels it and seals the same box to send the item back.
Does it need tape?
No. The box closes with a peel-and-seal adhesive strip when you pack it.
Is it the same as a regular mailer box?
It is a mailer or shipping box with an extra perforated strip and adhesive closure, designed to be opened without tools.

How ordering works: quote, digital proof, production, then delivery to the USA or Canada. Nothing prints until you approve the proof.
