A major
producer of natural cosmetic products needed to
introduce a reusable container for semi-bulk shipments
for a variety of products that could also be used
as a storage unit and pick-bin. The original half
slotted container and stitched cap had proved the
correct size, but the caps were seldom returned
and tape damage seriously reduced the lifecycle
of the containers. |
| The
unique replacement design from DS Smith Tri-Wall
utilises a novel ‘jig-saw’ outer base
flap system to simplify make-up, breakdown for flat
packed returns and to avoid the need for taping.
The inner flaps were increased to meet giving a
flat surface for filling irrespective of the product
mix. A saloon style door was introduced in a main
panel with a three-quarter length vertical slit,
parallel vertical creasing and a cross panel slit
at the bottom of the doors. This allowed the two
panels to be easily turned back to fold flat against
the container where they are held in place by the
easy to use locking tabs in both the main body of
the case and the doors. The vertical slit extended
past the door panels so that an ‘H’
section plastic extrusion slid in place and maintained
the integrity of the pack both in storage and transit,
with the upper end retained by the cap. |
