FEFCO 0331 Box Template Generator

Telescope box, double-walled tray. A double-walled tray under a plain lid, so the strength goes into the piece that carries the load and the lid stays light.

Not yet plate-checked. This template folds, closes and exports cleanly, but its blank has not yet been matched against the standard's own drawing in detail. Treat it as a starting point and check it before you spend anything.

What is FEFCO 0331?

FEFCO 0331 is built from two or more pieces, most often a separate lid over a body, so the depth can vary with what is packed. A double-walled tray under a plain lid, so the strength goes into the piece that carries the load and the lid stays light.

Uses

Transit and e-commerce packing, where the box is handled by a carrier
Jobs where the depth or the fit has to be adjusted after packing

Advantages

The two parts can be made from different boards, or printed differently

Disadvantages

Needs 2 separate pieces, so there is more than one tool and more than one part to handle

Typical industries

Export and freight

Recommended board grades

Single wall B or C flute is usual. The lid and body are often the same board; a heavier body under a lighter lid is worth considering where only the body carries the stack.
