REGULAR SLOTTED CARTONS

The regular slotted carton, made of double-face corrugated board, is designed with two inner flaps which do not meet at the center when folded, and also with two outer flaps which do meet at the center when folded. This is one of the most popular cartons in general use. For shipment, the regular slotted carton is sealed either by gluing down the flaps, or by covering all outer joints, openings or seams with paper sealing tape.

All kinds of staying material and paper sealing tape, as used for sealing corrugated shipping containers, are supplied by the larger manufacturers of paper box machinery. Many of the paper houses also carry this line.
