Slotted Boxes

Slotted box styles are generally made from one piece of corrugated or solid fibreboard. The blank is scored and slotted to permit folding. The box manufacturer forms a joint at the point where one side panel and one end panel are brought together. Boxes are then shipped flat to the user. When the box is needed, the user squares up the box, inserts the product and then closes the flaps. The International fibreboard Case Code refers to these styles as Slotted-Type Boxes, while the carrier classifications call them Conventional Slotted Boxes.
