Packaging Box Sleeve (Belly Band) Dieline Template
Draw a flat 4-panel wraparound box sleeve (belly band) dieline for meal trays, soap bars, rigid gift boxes and seasonal SKU variants.
A simplified drawing for planning your design. Your free production dieline comes with your proof, made for your exact size and board.
How this flat structure works
A packaging sleeve wraps four continuous creased panels plus one hidden bottom glue flap around an unprinted tray, jar cluster, soap bar or stock box—giving you full-color branding and SKU flexibility without printing separate boxes.
| Engineering specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Orientation | Length = front width · Width = tray depth · Height = sleeve wrap band width |
| Clearance tip | Add ~1/32 to 1/16 in over the outer tray size so the sleeve slides smoothly without slipping off |
| Typical board | 14–20 pt white SBS card or brown kraft paperboard |
| Finishes | CMYK, Pantone, foil stamping, embossing, matte or soft-touch lamination |
How to fold and lock this dieline
- Sleeve ships flat with the glue flap bonded beneath the bottom panel.
- Pinch opposite crease scores so the sleeve opens into a rectangular tunnel.
- Slide the sleeve smoothly over your tray, soap bar, apparel bundle or gift box.

How tight should a box sleeve fit?
Leave roughly 1/32 to 1/16 in over the exact outer tray dimensions depending on board caliper so customers can slide it off smoothly without it sliding loose in transit.
Can a sleeve have a die-cut window?
Yes—open cut-outs or clear film windows on the top panel are common on bakery, soap and meal-prep sleeves.
