Special carton shapes

Pillow cartons, polygons and curved shapes give your product a different silhouette. The footprint determines the usable interior. Check how the product fits in a folded sample.

Pillow box

The pillow box curves two wall surfaces between lens-shaped end flaps. Curved creases create the closure instead of straight lid creases. In version 1, the inputs mean the package's width × thickness × length. The shown dieline accounts for these proportions and the starting material; it does not define a rectangular box interior.

Hinged-lid carton

The hinged lid sits on the back wall and lays its front wall over the outside of the front. A lid flap inserts through a slot in the front; a tuck bottom closes the base. The page shows version 2 with the hanging hole disabled. The technical core calculates lid overhang, flaps, and creases from the chosen dimensions and material profile.

Tuck-end carton with window

The window carton combines straight tuck closures with a front cutout. Choose a rectangle with corner radius or an oval and leave room for the film margin and bridges. The shown version 2 starts with a rectangular window and no hanging hole. The dieline provides the construction; window film is patched separately on the inside.

Hexagonal carton

Six walls form a hexagonal footprint with a tuck lid and bottom. Inputs mean across corners × across flats × height, rather than the length and width of a rectangle. Version 1 calculates the angled walls, miters, and creases from these dimensions. The example shows the straight lid style; alternatively, the bottom can be attached to the back.

Gable box with handle

The gable carton combines a tuck bottom with a gable roof and glued handle flaps. The page explicitly shows version 1 with handle hole, roof panels, and gussets. The entered height describes the body; gable and handle are added using separate parameters. The calculated dieline is a basis for the folding sample, not proof of load capacity.

Polygon box (n-gon)

Folding carton with 5 to 12 walls as a generalization of the hexagon box: glue flap, tuck lid at the front with the tuck flap opposite, straight or reverse bottom, mitered dust flaps. Length × width is the rectangle the n-gon fills.

carton.polygonView template

Trapezoid box

Folding carton with an isosceles trapezoid plan: wide front, narrower back, slanted sides; tuck lid at the front with the tuck flap at the back, straight or reverse bottom. Dimensions: front × depth × height.

Pyramid

Pyramid with 3 to 8 triangular faces as a fan around the apex, glue flap, bottom with tuck flap and dust flaps on the other faces. Dimensions: base length × width, apex height above the bottom.

Sphere box

Sphere or ball box as a polyhedron of meridian strips: equator walls, zone faces with glue flaps above and below, a lid at the top and a bottom with tuck flap, dust flaps on the other strips. Dimensions: diameter at the equator (length = width) and height.
