PACK / FICTIONAL EXAMPLE
Shipping case
A corrugated case with the flaps hinged open. It is judged by what arrives inside it, so the specification is the board grade rather than the print.
How it is made.
Die-cut and scored from corrugated board, then glued at the manufacturer joint. The score lines decide how the flaps fold and how the corners take a drop, and they are the part of the drawing most often left to the converter.

Every value above is an illustrative example for a fictional range. It is not a quotation, a capability statement or a measurement of any real pack.
What a sample cannot show.
How it survives a journey. A sample is packed by hand and carried to a meeting; a production pack is filled on a line and loaded onto a vehicle, and the difference between the two is where most failures come from.
What it cannot show either.
Whether the hundredth case is the same size as the first. Board is affected by humidity, and a case that fits on Monday can be tight on Friday.
