A5 storage box — frequently asked questions
What are the dimensions of the WestonBoxes A5 box and what does it hold?
The A5 storage box measures 224 x 162 x 56mm externally and 216 x 154 x 55mm internally. It holds A5 paper (148 x 210mm) flat and protected. The internal dimensions prevent corner-curl while keeping contents secure without shifting.
What else can I store in an A5 box besides paper?
The A5 box is popular with crafters for storing ink pads, small stamps, washi tape collections, embossing powders, notecards, greeting card blanks, and small hobby supplies. If it fits within 216 x 154mm and is no taller than 55mm, it will store neatly in an A5 box.
Is the WestonBoxes A5 box acid-free?
Yes. All colour variants and the TOUGH white grade are made from acid-free polypropylene, which means they will not react with or damage paper, photographs, or printed media stored inside. Safe for long-term archival storage of documents and handmade work.
What material is the WestonBoxes A5 box made from?
The A5 box is made from PP5 polypropylene — a chemically inert, recyclable plastic that is acid-free, moisture-resistant, and durable. Available in standard transparent coloured grades and a TOUGH high-impact opaque white grade for environments where extra durability is needed.
Where is the WestonBoxes A5 box made?
The A5 storage box is designed, manufactured, and quality-checked at our factory in Sunbury-on-Thames, Surrey. S.B.Weston Ltd has been manufacturing precision injection moulded products in south west London since 1948 — originally from a factory in Teddington, then on Platts Eyot, a small island in the Thames, before moving to our own factory premises in Sunbury-on-Thames in 2002. When you buy a WestonBoxes product, it is genuinely made in Britain — not just branded here.
