Slotted-Type Boxes

Slotted box styles are generally made from one piece of corrugated or solid fibreboard. The blank is scored and slotted to permit folding. A joint is formed by the box manufacturer at the point where one side panel and one end panel are brought together. Boxes are then shipped flat to the user. Flaps, extending from the side and end panels to form the top and bottom, are closed by the user when the box is needed.

The International Box Code refers to these styles as Slotted-Type Boxes, while the carrier Classifications call them Conventional Slotted Boxes.
