What moves the price
For tube carton, the drivers are wall construction, burst strength, edge crush strength, board grade, print, die cut complexity, depth score positions, glue style — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Published wholesale pricing for corrugated cartons is sparse, so the ladder is anchored mainly to custom-carton supplier quote bands and wholesale tier breaks rather than a single exact SKU. The biggest price drivers are board grade and construction (single-wall vs. heavier duty), print coverage/compliance requirements, and structural complexity such as partitions or telescope-style two-piece builds. Realistic sourcing routes are US-facing custom corrugated converters for quoted runs and wholesale distributors for commodity-style carton equivalents; imported landed-equivalent pricing can be lower at scale, but lead times and certification/compliance costs usually rise
