Custom Gift Box

Custom Gift Box

Montgomery Fire Department

Doing something new

While we’ve made boxes before, this was a first for us: a gift box with a custom internal layout designed specifically for items like tumblers. So, when the Montgomery Fire Department asked if we could help create something special to celebrate the retirement of longtime Chief Addie, we didn’t hesitate. We jumped in and got to work.

Projects like this showcase the breadth of our team’s skills and experience, not just with tools and materials, but with creative problem-solving. Ivan Bush, who’s been with PubPlus for over nine years, brought that experience to the table and added a healthy dose of creativity to the process.

Prototyping

This project went through nearly ten different prototypes. With each one, we fine-tuned small details, adjusting hinge styles, tweaking design elements, and refining how the box would be assembled.

We even added subtle touches like embedded magnets to give the box a satisfying snap when it closed, details that made the final product feel polished and premium.

The small details matter

From the chrome accents that reflected the design to the brushed gold trim and the precision-cut shapes tailored for each gift item, every element was intentional.

These small details are what brought the whole project together, and they’re what earned it a 2025 Award of Excellence from PIAS.

We’re proud to have played a part in celebrating Chief Addie’s legacy, and even prouder to have done it through craftsmanship and care.

You think it, we print it.
