How the shape is constructed

Corrugated shipping box for retail and online shipping: bottom as on a regular slotted box, fully overlapping outer flaps at the top; the outer flap has a self-adhesive strip for closing and a tear strip with a tear cord for opening.

How it is assembled

Glue the glue flap, erect the box, close the bottom with inner and outer flaps, and tape it. After filling, fold in the upper inner flaps, place the back outer flap over them, remove the release liner, and press the front flap over it. To open, grip the tear cord at the flap edge and tear out the strip.

Material and grain direction

Flute direction parallel to the height: stable for stacking (check with the test print shop).

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

What to consider for this construction

Glue flap

Width of the glue flap used to glue the blank into a tube. The material requires a minimum width.

Glue flap angle

Bevel at the ends of the glue flap; facilitates folding and erection.

Flap gap

Gap between neighboring flaps or walls; at least approximately the material thickness.

Adhesive strip width

Width of the self-adhesive strip on the outer lid flap; it bonds the flap to the flap beneath it.

Adhesive strip inset

Distance of the adhesive strip from the flap's free edge (0 = flush with the edge).

Frequently asked questions

What does the dieline show of the tear cord?

The two perforations are represented as geometry; the tear cord is an annotation. The dieline thus establishes the intended position. It confirms neither cord material, insertion method, nor opening force. These details must be checked in the production sample and with the executing facility.

Why do the strips not fit on small formats?

Tear strip, safety clearance, and adhesive strip share the upper outer flap. With a small inside width, this area can become too short. The constraint stripsFitOuterFlap therefore limits the tear strip distance. Adjust the dependent parameters together rather than moving the lines closer after export.

Can the lid be closed again after opening?

This V1 models a self-seal closure with one tear strip. A second adhesive strip for returns is not available as a separate parameter. This construction therefore cannot promise a return closure. For a reopenable tuck closure, there is the mailer with locking tabs.
