Design Your Package

This page allow you to understand your packaging requirements more. As corrugated box is customized or “Tailor Made” product, you need to know size, style, grade and print of your package to allow us to quote at the best

1. What size of box do you need?

No matter how big or small we can help you pack or ship your item safely with the perfect sized box. Just follow the simple steps below to order the boxes you need. Start by measuring the items length, width, and depth in inches. Add a tolerance of 1/8-inch to allow for fitting.

2. Selecting the style of package that suits your product

There are many styles of boxes that we can design and deliver for you, ranging from the standard two-piece box to more intricate and tougher containers. Take a look at the display of box styles below:

RSC (Regular Slotted Container)

This is the most common shipping container. This style typically doesn’t need a cutting die and can be used for a wide variety of applications. The flaps of this box meet in the middle.

HSC (Half Slotted Container)

This style box is just like the RSC, except it has no flaps on the top of the box.

FOL (Full Overlap)

With this type of box, both flaps are made to go completely to the other side of the box, fully overlapping each other. This provides extra strength on the flaps.

Five Panel Folder

This container is manufactured non-glued and arrives flat. It is usually used in packaging applications for long, narrow items which need to be packaged manually.

Telescoping Box

Telescoping ox have a top and bottom, which are used together to completely package a product. Often times a telescoping top is made to be the top for other boxes, such as an HSC.

Bulk Bin

Bulk bins are typically made to package large items, fruit and vegetables or industrial parts, which are shipped on a pallet. Most bulk bins are made of a heavy grade corrugated, such as double or triple wall.

Infold Tray

These boxes are convenient because the trays can be opened and completed without any additional gluing or stapling. These boxes are common in the meat packing industry and work well for many similar applications due to the leak resistance of this design.

Tuck Top

This style of box refers to the top flaps of the box and the closing mechanism. The tuck allows for a box to be closed and opened multiple times without tape or damage to the box. This design requires a cutting die.

Hallound Bottom

This style of box (we call it “hal” bottom for short) refers to the bottom flaps and the closing mechanism. The bottom flaps can be manually closed without any tape and can also be disassembled without damage to the box. This style is often used in reusable containers. This style requires a cutting die.

GE

This fully die cut box can be completely assembled without any tape or adhesion. There is significant labor required to assemble this box, although it is an efficient box for smaller products which aren’t very tall or deep.

Double Glue

This box is similar to an RSC except it has an additional partition built into the box. This partition increases stacking strength and allows for a divider between two products. This style requires a cutting die.

WL Tray (Walker Lock)

This tray is self-locking and has extra strength for stacking and interlocking. This style requires a cutting die.

Auto Bottom (A.K.A. Crash Lock)

This style is very practical for reusable containers. The bottom flaps of the box are pre-glued and assembled, yet this box is able to be folded flat. Opening the box automatically brings the flaps into place. It’s very common to see a tuck top or other self-locking tops on this type of box.

 

3. Decide the required strength of your package

For deciding the required strength for your box you need tell us the following points.

  1. Net weight of the product per box
  2. Stacking Limit
  3. Humidity level ( please mention if stored in cold storage)
  4. Mode of Transportation
  5. Time taken in Transportation
  6. Pattern of loading and unloading (with or without Pallets and forklifts )

Products range from plain brown, boxes to high end, multi colour, display packaging. Internal fittings can also be designed to contain and protect the contents of the package.
