Folding box with crash lock base in detail

We meet these packaging almost every day in shipping or in the presentation of products in the store. Often, with this particular  folding box, we do not realize that its base has a special mechanism. It folds up automatically as fast as lightning and then seals itself. This gives the packaging container great stability. The special design gives folding boxes with crash lock base the nicknames lightning box or flash carton. Not surprisingly, this type of folding box is now the most widely used packaging. Learn more about the topic and get to know our assortment in the store.

What is a folding box with crash lock base?

Maybe you know the folding boxes, where you have to put the bottom with tabs into each other? The construction does not always make a very stable impression. For products with little weight, the tucked constructions can be ideal. With heavier products made of glass or metal, for example, they may be weakening. Folding boxes with a crash lock base are different. The base, which is glued in a precise manner, locks when the box, which initially lies flat, is set upright. This happens automatically. This opens up a wide range of applications for the folding box with crash lock base. Very flexible in size, format and individual design, this cardboard packaging is proving to be particularly popular.

What are the advantages of folding boxes with crash lock base?

As a folding box, they can be stored flat to save space. The independent unfolding of the carton and sealing of the bottom allows automated, machine filling. Filling the boxes is particularly effective. This means that even large packaging quantities can be handled in a time-sensitive manner. The crash lock base tolerates a higher filling weight than other folding boxes. Heavier products such as glass containers can be transported and shipped here. The greater robustness of this base solution is ensured by the fixed gluing. Compared with other solutions such as snap lock base and tuck-in flaps, the folding box with crash lock base is slightly more expensive. It is unrivaled for heavier products in cosmetic, food, pharmaceutical and others.

Folding box with crash lock base and sustainability

Sustainability is at the top of the agenda for our folding boxes. In particular, the chromo cardboards, recycled cardboards, grass cardboards and natural cardboards are leaders in this area. Sustainability here extends to the entire production conditions. The virgin fibers come from sustainable forestry. For the natural cardboard, 50% recycled fibers are used. All folding boxes with crash lock base can be recycled and composted. In this way, they are completely returned to a recycling loop.
