FEFCO 0212 Box Template Generator

Slotted container with a hinged lid. A slotted body with a full lid hinged off one long panel, closing with a tuck instead of four flaps. Opens and recloses cleanly, which four taped flaps never do.

What is FEFCO 0212?

FEFCO 0212 is cut from one piece, glued or stitched along a single manufacturer’s joint, and shipped flat. Flaps fold in at both ends to close it. A slotted body with a full lid hinged off one long panel, closing with a tuck instead of four flaps. Opens and recloses cleanly, which four taped flaps never do.

Uses

• Retail and gift packaging, where the box is seen by the customer

Advantages

• Cut from a single blank, so there is one tool and one part to stock
• Locks closed without glue or tape, which saves a consumable and a step
• The most widely made board box there is, so it is quick to source and cheap per unit

Disadvantages

• The flaps meet but do not overlap, so the ends are the weakest part of the box
• Hand-locking takes longer per box than a taped or glued closure

Typical industries

• Retail display

Recommended board grades

Single wall B or C flute for most shipping. Double wall BC or EB where the load is heavy, the box is large, or it will be stacked several high in a warehouse.
