NEW ERA PACKAGING CAPE TOWNPRODUCT DESCRIPTIONDocument: REC 024Revision: 000Page: 2of 2Definition:A box or container, typically made of corrugated cardboard in which foodstuffs and non foodstuffs are packaged.Manufacturing process:Boxes are manufactured to meet the particular needs of the product being shipped, the hazards of the shipping environment,shock, vibration, compression, moisture, etc., and the needs of retailers and consumers.The most common box style is the Regular Slotted Container (RSC). All flaps are the same length from the score to the edge.Typically, the major flaps meet in the middle and the minor flaps do not.The manufacturer's joint is most often joined with adhesive but may also be taped or stitched. The box is shipped flat (knockeddown) to the packager who sets up the box, fills it, and closes it for shipment. Box closure may be by tape, adhesive, staples,strapping, etc.The size of a box can be measured for either internal (for product fit) or external (for handling machinery or palletizng)dimensions. Boxes are usually specified and ordered by the internal dimensions.Boxes are formed in the same plant as the corrugator. Part of the scoring and cutting takes place in-line on the corrugator.Alternatively, sheets of corrugated board are sent to different machines for carton fabrication and printingThe corrugated board is creased or scored to provide controlled bending of the board. Most often, slots are cut to provide flapson the box. Scoring and slotting can also be accomplished by die-cutting.All rights to copy, reproduce, or dispose of this document or its contents are reserved unless otherwise specified in writing by <strong>New</strong> <strong>Era</strong> Packaging.
