12 Inch Pizza Boxes

12 Inch Pizza Boxes for the Medium Pie

The medium pizza is the workhorse of most menus. A 12 inch pie is usually cut into eight slices and feeds two or three people, which makes it the size couples and small households order most. Custom 12 inch pizza boxes carry your brand into those homes every night of the week.

Packwhole produces medium pizza boxes from corrugated board in white or kraft. Each box folds from a single blank, locks at the front and stacks firmly in delivery bags and on counters during rush hour.

Typical Dimensions

Most 12 inch pizza boxes measure about 12 by 12 inches inside with a depth of 1.75 to 2 inches. Pan, deep dish and stuffed crust pies need more height, so we can increase the depth while keeping the same footprint. If you want a fuller comparison of sizes and slice counts, read our pizza box sizes guide.

Branding That Works on a Medium Box

The lid of a 12 inch box gives you plenty of room for a bold design. Pizzerias commonly add a large logo, a short tagline, online ordering details and a QR code for loyalty sign-ups. The side panels are useful for a “best reheated in the oven” note, hours of operation or social media handles. Full color printing reproduces photos and illustrations, while one-color printing on kraft suits a classic neighborhood look.

Medium Pizza Boxes for Multi-Location Shops

When several locations use the same medium pizza boxes, ordering one design in larger quantities keeps branding consistent and costs steady. Seasonal promos can be handled with a printed sticker or a limited run rather than replacing your main design.

Venting, Strength and Grease

Air holes on the sides release steam so crusts do not turn soggy on the drive home. Corrugated flutes add stiffness so stacked boxes do not crush the pizza below, and a liner can be added for extra greasy toppings. For family orders that include a larger pie, see our custom pizza boxes in other sizes.

Keeping the Medium Pie Hot on Delivery

Medium pizzas are frequently delivered alongside sides and drinks, which means they may wait a few extra minutes while an order is assembled. A well fitted lid keeps heat in, and vents stop moisture from building up underneath. Placing the box flat in an insulated bag, rather than on its side, keeps the cheese and toppings in place. Printing a simple “keep flat” icon on the side panel reminds drivers and customers to carry it the right way. Shops that run lunch and dinner menus often keep the medium box as their default size for both, so a single printed design does most of the daily work.
