Kraft or eco-forward faces
When brand story leans natural, kraft faces or limited-color print keep takeout boxes simple and on-message without inventing unstated certifications.
Print, color, and brand control
Bring brand guidelines when you have them. Elm Packaging still issues a proof before production so takeout boxes print and cut stay in register.
