Beauty packaging cost calculators

The numbers you actually need before asking a factory for a quotation — unit price at your quantity, order value, carton and CBM, freight, and a realistic production schedule. Every calculator runs in your browser. No sign-up, no email gate, nothing to download.

How every estimate is built

They are not random numbers. Each calculator uses the same four-part model a factory uses when it prices a custom packaging order, so the range you see is the range you should expect back on a quotation.

Volume is not linear A 10 ml tube does not cost twice a 5 ml tube. Wall area grows slower than fill volume, so price scales at roughly the 0.55 power of capacity. Capacity factor
Quantity breaks Moulding, printing set-up and packing labour are spread across the run. Going from 3,000 to 30,000 pcs typically removes 15–25% from the unit price. Volume factor
Tooling and MOQ Stock moulds need no tooling spend but come with a minimum run. A bespoke shape means a one-off mould fee and a much higher MOQ. One-off cost
Lead time has three parts Sampling, then production, then finishing. Printing or hot stamping adds days at the end, and large runs add days to every stage. Schedule

Common questions

Are these calculators really free?

Yes. There is no sign-up, no paywall and no email gate. The calculation happens in your browser, so nothing is submitted anywhere and we cannot see what you typed.

How accurate are the price ranges?

They are indicative FOB ranges for planning, built from quotations on real Chinese factory production. Actual pricing moves with material cost, decoration, packaging and current factory loading, so treat the range as a budget check rather than a binding offer.

Why is there a range instead of one number?

Because most of the cost drivers are open until you specify them: print colours, cap finish, carton style and the factory you pick. The range shows the spread between a plain stock item and a decorated one.

Can I get a real quotation instead?

Yes — send the specification to the Custom-OEM sourcing team and you will get a factory quotation with samples, decoration options and a firm lead time.
