This template is a component of a packaging assembly. Match its dimensions to the other parts; lids, bases, wraps and linings serve different purposes.

How it is assembled

Erect the greyboard along the grooves: front and back walls first, then place the end walls between them. Secure corners with corner tape, then wrap. Pull the ribbon through the oblong hole and glue it inside.

Material and grain direction

Grain direction of greyboard and wrapping paper parallel to the blank's x-axis: the long grooves fold cleanly, and board and paper do not warp against each other during lamination (check with the box manufacturer).

Test fit, folding and closure on a sample made from the intended material. Confirm material thickness, grain direction and production steps with your printer.

Compare opening and presentation: pillow shapes, bands, drawers or lift-off lids. Plan the fit of contents and inserts and allow clearance between moving parts.

Inside dimension

These dimensions describe the preview, not a fixed packaging size. The app recalculates the dieline for your own dimensions.

What to consider for this construction

Butt joint gap

Walls placed between the long walls are shorter by this value at each joint to prevent jamming during erection.

Ribbon handle

Slot in the right end wall of the tray and wrap, through which a ribbon handle is threaded and glued on the inside.

Ribbon handle width

Width of the ribbon handle; the slot is 2 mm longer and 3 mm wide.

Frequently asked questions

Which dimensions does the sleeve table describe?

The sleeve uses starting values of 153 mm length, 104.6 mm inside width and 43.1 mm inside height. These dimensions are derived from the greyboard tray, starting clearance and paper. They are not additional product dimensions. When changing the tray interior, sleeve and both wraps must be recalculated together.

Why is the pull ribbon in two blanks?

The oblong hole lies in the greyboard tray’s right end wall. With the pull ribbon enabled, the tray wrap receives a matching oblong hole over this opening. Both parts must use the same setting and ribbon width. The starting preview shows the ribbon disabled; actual ribbon assembly requires a recalculated variant and an assembly test sample.

How wide can the pull ribbon be?

The ribbonWidth parameter allows 6 to 25 mm and starts at 10 mm. The oblong hole and its bridges must also fit within the end wall. The contour is 2 mm longer than the ribbon width and 3 mm wide; at least a 5 mm bridge remains on each side. The geometric limit may be tighter than the parameter range.
