Moisture Disclaimer:
When boxes are delivered, they may contain some residual moisture from the printing and pasting processes, especially during humid weather or when produced at our overseas facilities.
This is a normal result of manufacturing conditions.
To resolve this, simply remove the boxes from their packaging and store them in a dry, well-ventilated area for a few days. This will allow any moisture to dissipate naturally. This does not affect the structure or functionality of the boxes in any way.
