Uses
- High-volume packing lines, since a pre-glued blank erects in one movement
Advantages
- Cut from a single blank, so there is one tool and one part to stock
- Arrives glued and flat, and erects quickly by hand or by machine
Disadvantages
- The glued joint sets the minimum order — short runs are rarely economical
Typical industries
- General packing and light manufacturing
Recommended board grades
Folding boxboard or solid bleached board, typically 250–450 microns. Heavier board for larger cartons, lighter where the carton is filled by machine.

ECMA 2022 code newly claimed. The p.28 plate closes the top with the plain "10" band — four square flaps each the carton's own depth — over the crash-lock base drawn to the same numbers as A60.20.00.03 and A60.01.00.00, and 10/60 in the code says exactly that. The bare "lock" line this template used to draw on the wall is on no plate and has been removed.
