The solution for medium to heavy products

Folding cartons only provide adequate product protection if the bottom closure can withstand the product weight. Therefore, a conventional tuck-in flap is not sufficient for slightly heavier goods. The product would simply slip through. Folding cartons with tuck-in bottoms from Labelprint 24 are a safe and cost-effective alternative.

Perfect for many sectors

Folding cartons are mainly used as outer packaging and find application in numerous industries, such as printed packaging for:

  • food

    z. e.g. drinks in bottles and cans

  • cosmetics

    z. e.g. in heavy flacons and jars

  • electronics

    z. e.g. computer accessories and power banks

  • industrial products 

    z. e.g. tools and furnishings 

  • medicines

    z. E.g. tinctures in glass medicine bottles

Tip: By the way, our folding boxes with automatic bottom have an even stronger bottom seal, as the bottom flaps are already firmly glued together at the factory. For light and small goods, on the other hand, the classic folding boxes with tuck-in flaps offer sufficient protection at particularly favourable prices.

Design and funtction

Our folding boxes are made to measure and printed in your design - for an optimal appearance at the POS and high functionality.

    whether on the outside, inside or on the flaps - all cardboard surfaces can be printed on

  • easy handling

Stability and a noble look

  • Robust and affordable 

    Low-cost packaging solution for medium-weight and heavy products

  • Configurable to the millimetre

    Free choice of format for packaging in the individual desired size

  • creatively designable

Note: Our folding boxes with tuck-in bottoms are always delivered plano, i.e. flat. This means they take up the least possible space during transport and storage. The boxes can be set up by hand and are done on your premises as required.

The structure of plug-in bottom boxes

Plug-in shelves are made up of four tabs in three different shapes. These are overlapped and inserted into each other in a special way during set-up. The pressure exerted on the floor from above by the product weight is thus distributed over several tabs. Gluing is not necessary.

Set up 

1. Fold down the flap with the central rectangular recess.

2.Fold the two side dust flaps inwards and place them over the top.

3. Fold down the tuck-in flap, arch the bottom inwards under slight pressure and push the flap through the resulting slit.

Variants

At Labelprint24, two versions of folding boxes with tuck-in bottoms are available. The difference lies in the positioning of the flaps:

Tip: For the alternative - our folding box with tuck-in bottom and safety flap, a safety flap is inserted through a slot in the tuck-in flap of the lid. This gives the lid a more secure hold when closed. This prevents the lid from opening by itself, for example by squeezing the packaging.

From goods protection to marketing

Originally, the sole purpose of packaging was to keep goods safe during storage and transport. In the meantime, however, folding boxes and labels have developed into true all-rounders that fulfil more than just one important function:

goods protection

Folding boxes offer protection from external influences. Their contents remain unaffected by dust, light and moisture as well as scratches and knocks. For heavy goods, the tuck-in bottom provides additional support.

Information carrier

With the six printable outer surfaces, folding packaging offers generous space for compulsory labelling and other useful information - such as tips for use, for example, which simply have not found a place on the primary packaging.

Marketing instrument

Good packaging draws attention to itself with design and advertising messages. This is easy for folding boxes: they can be printed not only on the outside but also on the inside and on the flaps - even with varying motifs within a series using digital printing.

Configuration & design options

Our online configurator guides you step by step through the order creation process to your desired packaging - quickly, easily and at any time. You simply tell us the desired dimensions, materials and design information and we will quickly deliver folding boxes that exactly match your specifications and ideas.

Wide range of materials

In our configurator you will find a wide range of cardboard types for your folding boxes with tuck-in bottoms. So the colour, thickness and fibres we use depend entirely on your ideas:

  • white cardboard
  • bright white cardboard 
  • colourful cardboard 
  • thick cardboard 
  • Recycled, natural and grass board

Free formats

  • Length: 15 to 350 mm
  • Width: 15 to 250 mm
  • Height: 30 to 400
  • Adhesive tab: 8 to 25 mm

Tip: All format specifications refer to the inside dimension. In order to provide enough space for the contents for the tuck-bottom box and save resources at the same time, we recommend adding two millimetres to the product dimensions.

Finishes 

It is very difficult for customers to judge which product contains the best quality when they are shopping. This makes it all the more important to give the packaging an attractive appearance in order to direct the eye and interest in a targeted manner.

  •  Protective laminate: matt, glossy or softtouch
  • Protective lacquer: matt or glossy as well as with or without cut-outs
  •  Shape die-cut & transparent viewing window
  • Braille and tactile warning triangles

Other finishes are available on request:

  •  Blind embossing
  • Cellophaning or lamination
  • Hot foil stamping: Gold, silver or copper
  • Creasing and die-cutting
  • UV varnishing for full surface, high gloss

Free formats 

Precisely fitting folding boxes require customised production. With regard to the box format, our configurator box format therefore gives you a free hand. Formats within the following values are technically feasible:

  • Length: 15 to 350 mm
  • Width: 15 to 250 mm
  • Height: 30 to 400
  • Adhesive tab: 8 to 25 mm

Tip: To ensure that the boxes later offer enough space for your contents, the inside dimension should always be around two millimetres more than the product dimensions.
