Packaging Design - More than meets the eye


Great packaging design must also perform.
Liberty Carton designers consider if your box is strong enough to contain your product and resist damage.

Not only that, we take into account all of the stresses placed on your package in your distribution system.

For example, is your box strong enough to be stacked? How high?

Here are some basic package designs
that we can customize for you:

rsc custom packaging design

    Regular Slotted Container (RSC)

    The most popular box style.
    Highly efficient design creates
    minimal manufacturing waste.

    All box flaps are of the same length. The two outer flaps (usually the lengthwise flaps) are one half the container's width, so that they
    meet at the center of the box when folded.
osc custom packaging design

    Overlap Slotted Container (OSC)

    This style uses a bit more material, but closes securely even when the box is longer.

    All flaps are the same length, however outer flaps overlap by one inch or more. Overlapping flaps can easily be stapled for added security.
fol custom packaging design

    Full Overlap Container (FOL)

    Stackability and durability are the hallmark of this style. All flaps are the width of the box, thus creating a nearly complete overlap when closed.

    This overlap creates a stable stacking surface that is less prone to tipping when stacked higher. Overlapping flaps also provide added cushioning.
hsc custom packaging design

    Half Slotted Container (HSC)

    This style has no cover flaps. The cover, if required is usually comprised of a single piece that overlaps or telescopes over the upper edge to various degrees.

    Since covers can be quickly and repeatedly removed and replaced, this style is utilized in material handling systems and in transporting fresh fruits and vegetables.

    Tray with Self-Locking Ends

    Trays are typically used to contain and separate contents inside packaging and displays.

    Tray designs can be highly efficient, usually formed from a single piece of corrugated that assembles quickly and requires no gluing.
die cut custom packaging design

    Die Cut Container

    The container styles described above can all be rapidly manufactured using our economical slotter-scorer machines.

    However, when advanced cutting is required, custom die cutting adds endless possibilities.
