Oi! Studio

What Oi! Studio does

Oi! Studio (operating under the trade name きらめく宝箱 / Kirameku Takara-bako) is a Japanese custom cardboard-box manufacturer founded in 2022 by Kumazaki Yoshimasa (熊崎義政), based in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture. The firm produces made-to-order original boxes using digital printing technology, supported by a proprietary template-based design system that enables customers without graphic design experience to specify custom layouts via menu-driven configuration. The product line centers on a core 'Original Custom Box' (オリジナル箱) SKU with optional structural and finishing add-ons including auto-bottom construction, magnetic closure, handle-equipped variants, window cutouts, ribbon ties, barcode printing, and tamper-evident protective seals, plus surface treatments such as gloss/matte lamination, PP coating, embossing, and foil stamping.

Oi! Studio sells exclusively through a direct-to-consumer website channel (https://www.oi-studio.com/), with online consultation meetings replacing in-person store visits and quote-based pricing that varies by dimensions, materials, print complexity, special features, and order volume. Supporting services include color proof verification, design modification, and remote consultation to maintain brand consistency. The customer base spans three segments: e-commerce and retail businesses (product packaging, shipping protection, barcode-tracked inventory), the gift and event industry (weddings, birthdays, corporate gifts, promotional merchandise), and product manufacturers needing protective packaging for fragile or premium goods.

Note on conflicting firmographic inputs: while one record lists Oi! Studio as a Tel Aviv-based brand-identity, campaign, video, website, and app agency founded in 2007, all substantive product, technology, website content, founder, and operational data describe a Japanese custom-box manufacturer founded in 2022 in Kawagoe, Saitama. The analysis above is grounded in the substantive evidence (the Japanese entity) as it represents the actual operating business with verifiable public web presence; the conflicting Israeli design-agency record appears to be a data-aggregation error conflating two distinct entities sharing the 'Oi! Studio' name. The company is privately held, founder-operated, with no disclosed institutional funding, parent, subsidiaries, partnerships, awards, patents, or regulatory actions, and reports 1–10 employees.

Direct peers

• PackStyle: Japan-based online custom box manufacturer offering small-batch digitally printed packaging with a web-based configurator. Directly comparable to Oi! Studio in target customer (SMB/indie brands), digital-first ordering model, and short-run custom box production.
• OriginalBox.com (オリジナルボックス.com): Online Japanese custom box specialist offering template-based ordering, digital printing, and made-to-order cardboard packaging. Closely comparable to Oi! Studio in product, customer segment, and online direct-to-consumer motion.

Broad incumbents

• The Pack (ザ・パック): Established Japanese packaging manufacturer offering paper, film, and converted packaging products to a broad customer base. Comparable as a much larger incumbent in the same paper-based packaging category, with overlapping capabilities in custom printed boxes.
• Kyodo Printing (共同印刷): Long-established Japanese printing and packaging company with operations across printed cartons, labels, and converted paperboard products. Comparable as a broader incumbent whose custom printed packaging offering overlaps with Oi! Studio's digitally printed boxes.
• Rengo (レンゴー): One of Japan's largest integrated packaging groups, producing corrugated containers, folding cartons, and flexible packaging. Comparable as a dominant incumbent in the converted paperboard packaging category where Oi! Studio competes.
• Oji Container (王子コンテナー): Subsidiary of Oji Holdings producing corrugated and paperboard containers at industrial scale. Comparable as a large incumbent in the same converted paperboard packaging category, though focused on higher-volume B2B orders.

Emerging players

• Noissue: Global online platform for custom-branded sustainable packaging serving indie e-commerce brands. Comparable in online-first, template-driven custom packaging for small brands, and represents an international benchmark for Oi! Studio's target use case.
• Packhelp: European online custom packaging platform offering small-batch branded boxes with a web-based configurator. Comparable in business model (online configurator, low MOQs, SMB/indie brand target) even though it serves a different geography.
• Pack & Box Online (箱屋.com / ダンボールワン): Online-first Japanese packaging retailer offering customizable boxes and shipping cartons to SMBs and consumers. Comparable digital, online-ordering motion though product focus skews more toward utility shipping boxes versus Oi! Studio's branded/gift packaging emphasis.
