These consist of more than one piece and are characterised by a lid and/or bottom telescoping over the body of the box.
The base and lid neatly fit together to form a box. 0300 boxes are sealed using either glue, staples or tape. They are ideal for large items
All dimensions are expressed as internal dimensions in mm as follows:
Length (L) x Width (W) x Height (H)
:
Longer dimension at the opening
:
Shorter dimension at the opening
:
Dimension from the top of the opening to the base
:
A variable dimension defined by the design attributes
The dimensions L, W, H and v are specified in each description of the case construction, for some designs the numerical value of W can exceed the numerical value of L.
Dimensions should be measured on the flat blank from the centre of crease bearing the thickness of the material in mind.
For telescope-type boxes:
The height (h) of the upper part (lid) should be given as a fourth measurement after an oblique stroke.
For cases with overlapping outer flaps:
For cases with overlapping outer flaps:
The length of the area of overlapping (o) should be given as a fourth measurement after an oblique stroke.
For cases with overlapping outer flaps:
