When it comes to unleashing cardboard magic—turning simple sheets into eye-catching, functional masterpieces, few do it better than Card Trix Cardboard Engineering. For over three decades, this Hampshire‑based family business has been bringing brands to life, one inventive fold at a time.
🎨 A Legacy of Creativity
Founded more than 30 years ago, Card Trix has grown from humble packaging beginnings into a full‑service “cardboard constructional design” studio.
What began as a handful of simple brochure boxes now spans everything from precision‑cut promotional mailers to sweeping, cinema‑foyer displays.
🛠️ End‑to‑End Service
One of Card Trix’s greatest strengths is its one‑stop approach. Every job—no matter how big or small—is guided through design, printing, cutting and assembly under one roof. Their in‑house CAD library boasts hundreds of parametric templates (twenty years’ worth of clever engineering!), while a stock of ready‑to‑go formats—twist‑lock dispensers, pop‑up cubes, slatted mailers and more—means fast turnaround when budgets or deadlines are tight.
✏️ Precision and Quality
Behind every fold and score is a commitment to precision. Card Trix’s cutting formes are crafted on high‑precision laser cutters and CNC routers, ensuring that even the most intricate shapes pop out perfectly every time. Meanwhile, their “right‑first‑time” quality policy keeps a close eye on production from the first proof through to delivery.
🚛 Cut-Tools: Streamlining with TruckleSoft
Across the years, Card Trix has partnered with TruckleSoft to enhance its CAD-driven workflows. TruckleSoft has developed and continues to maintain Cut‑Tools, a bespoke suite of BricsCAD plugins that automates layout, scoring and nesting tasks. Thanks to Cut‑Tools, the Card Trix team can turn concepts into production‑ready dielines faster than ever—keeping lead times down and creativity up.
🚀 Your Concept, Elevated
Whether you have a fully‑formed idea or are starting from scratch, the team at Card Trix will work with you to develop something that not only looks exactly as you imagined, but also prints economically and assembles effortlessly. Their collaborative, creative approach means your final piece never compromises on impact or practicality.
