What changed from the mailer. A shipping box has no lid — two big flaps meet on a seam that runs along the 13 in length, two smaller flaps fold under, and the tape seals the seam and wraps down both 11 in ends. So the outside top is now two 13 × 4 in bands either side of the tape (the Regular leaf lies under the tape band; the Candy script sits on the front band), the long 13 in faces are clean of tape, and the inside "reveal" moved to the four flap insides — the front flap carries the hero (leaf / candy lockup), the back flap the 10 strains / flavors, the end flaps the mark. Every inside flap is set so it reads upright when it is folded out toward you.
Regular · Gen 5 distillate
Kraft + black + LIVE green. The top's back band is the Gen 5 leaf as a black-ink botanical, its lower leaflets running under the green tape; the front band carries the lockup, DISTILLATE, GEN 5 and the count. Inside: black, the leaf in colour with the lockup on the front flap, the 10 strains in their colours on the back flap.

Candy · Gen 1
Kraft + candy red + black, green only in LIVE. The top's front band is LIVE✱ candy at full width; the back band takes the stripe corner and the facts; the red tape carries the white script and the double candy stripe. Inside: the sleeve front at flap scale — green corner, gradient script — with the 10 flavors on the back flap and ten drops on the floor.

| White ink | Yes — the greens and reds need it on brown board; the comp is proofed that way. "No" prints them muted (say so and it gets re-proofed). |

| Template | "ORDER NOW & RECEIVE A DIELINE TEMPLATE" → send the emailed dieline over and the art is placed on it and returned as the upload file (one per line). |
| Tape | separate supplier: 3 in printed tape, 6 in repeat, 2–3 colours (green + white + orange · red + white); files ready when the tape vendor names its format |
Still to confirm before the file goes up (only Rob / the brand can settle these):
- Fit check first — measure one real sleeve. The sleeve front is about 3.6 : 1, so in a 13 × 11 × 3.25 in box the five sleeves can only stand upright, and only if a sleeve is ≤ 11.6 in long (front ≤ 3.25 in tall) and ≤ 2.2 in deep. Lying flat, fronts up, as in the concept picture, does not fit at any length. Thirty seconds with a tape measure before 500 boxes are ordered: sleeve length × height × depth.
- Wording: "GEN 5" on Regular and "GEN 1" on Candy, and the count line "5 SLEEVES · 500 × 1.0 ml CARTRIDGES" (10 ten-packs per sleeve as photographed).
- Files from the brand: the "candy" script vector (the one here is traced off the photo — fine for this proof, not for the press) and the square emblems if they should appear.
- Compliance: nothing statutory is on the case; if Maine needs a symbol on the shipper, send the file and the spot.
- Sleeve dimensions, so the fit (five across 11 in) is checked against the real sleeve before the order.
