Medical - Medical: Instruments / Packaging | | Japanese term or phrase: 化粧箱 | I'm struggling to find a suitable term for this. It is not a cosmetics box. The product is a small medical device (a diagnostic test kit) and this term refers to the final layer of packaging - the box in which it will be sold. It's not a fancy box, just a plain white box with a label.
The document is part of an application for marketing approval.
I thought about maybe 'display box' or 'sales box', but I'm sure there must be a standard term for this. |
| | | English translation:A presentation box | Explanation:
or a packaging box, or a package in a box could be applied. I think that this is for a sales unit. So, a shipping box is also possible, isn't it? |

Asker: Shipping box could work. Packaging box sounds good but as there's already a lot of packaging being described I'm not sure it would do the job here.
