Why we like it

Earns its place in the Superhive library for pairing a Geometry Nodes box workflow with texture baking and a bundled FBX asset pack.

What is Simple Cardboard Box Generator?

Simple Cardboard Box Generator is a Blender add-on built with Geometry Nodes for producing cardboard box models in custom sizes. You can adjust the box size, individually control the angle of each flap, set the folded state, choose tape options, and switch between material variations, all inside Blender.

The add-on includes texture baking features, letting you prepare baked texture maps for export-ready cardboard box assets. A bake feature also helps turn a generated box into a usable asset. Generated models are suited to Blender scenes, Unreal Engine projects, product visualization, warehouse props, background objects, and general 3D environments.

The product ships with a bundled FBX asset pack created with the generator, so the ready-made cardboard box assets can be used directly in other 3D software or game engines. It is aimed at artists, environment creators, and real-time asset workflows where simple packaging props are needed quickly. Documentation is included, and the boxes render with Cycles.
