Step 01

Follow the blank

Identify the base, lid, side walls and locking tabs on an unprinted sample. Fold along the intended scores, form the sides, then close the lid in the supplier's stated order. A tab that needs excessive force is a sample-review issue.

Step 02

Run a packing trial

Pack the actual contents before deciding whether tape or another closure is needed. Record where the blank catches, how much worktop space it uses and whether the operator can repeat the sequence without damaging the corners.
