Regular Slotted Container - RSC

Regular Slotted Container

All flaps are the same depth, and the two outer flaps (normally the lengthwise flaps) are one-half the container's width, so they they meet at the center of the box when folded.

This is a highly effcient design. The only overlaps are the flap for a glued or stitched manufacturer's joint and the inner (or minor) flaps. There is very little manufacturing waste.

The RSC can be used for most products, and is the most common box style.

If the product requires a flat, even bottom surface, or the protection of two full layers, a fill-in pad can be placed between the two inner flaps.
