What moves the price
For drip off carton, the drivers are dimensions, board caliper, braille, print colors — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published pricing for a standard medicine/pharma carton shows strong scale effects as setup and makeready are amortized across larger runs, with the steepest drop from 5,000 to 25,000 units. The most realistic routes are custom carton converters serving pharmaceutical/nutraceutical brands and OEM packaging houses quoting a 4-color SBS carton with matte/lamination or selective coating; braille, special finishes, and heavier board typically move the price upward from these bands.
