FEFCO 0500 Series
FEFCO 0500 slide boxes
0500 covers corrugated packaging that works by sliding, sleeving, or banding. One piece usually moves over or through another.
Fit is the main issue. Too tight, and packing slows down. Too loose, and the product can shift or feel poorly held.

Series details
Common 0500 details
The practical issue in 0500 is fit. A sleeve that is too loose feels careless; a sleeve that is too tight slows packing or damages the product.
Sliding clearance
Board thickness, flute, finish, product tolerance, and print coverage can all change the sleeve fit.
Inner support
The liner, tray, or board insert must carry the product without sagging, rubbing, or releasing too easily.
Open ends
Open-ended sleeves may need an outer shipper, seal, label, or retention feature for transit.
Presentation
Sleeves can hide, reveal, group, or frame products, which is useful for kits, samples, and retail sets.
Questions
Common 0500 questions
Is a sleeve enough for shipping?
Sometimes, but not always. Open-ended sleeves and presentation sleeves often need an outer carton, seal, or retention detail for parcel handling.
What makes sleeve fit difficult?
Board thickness, flute, coatings, print coverage, product tolerance, and the inner tray or liner all affect how easily the sleeve slides.
Can the sleeve be printed or used for retail presentation?
Yes. Sleeves can carry print, labels, windows, or reveal areas, but heavy ink coverage and coatings can change sliding clearance.
When should I compare a lid-and-base box instead?
Compare 0300 when the product should lift out from a base rather than slide out from a sleeve.
Can a sleeve hold a kit or product set together?
Yes, if the inner support holds the items and the sleeve fit is controlled. Inserts or trays may be needed so the products do not move inside.
What information helps with a sleeve request?
Product size, product tolerance, quantity, how the item should slide out, and whether the sleeve ships alone are helpful. If some of that is unknown, a sample or photo can start the work.
Need a sleeve or slide box quoted?
Send the product size, quantity, and how the sleeve or sliding pack should be used. Add a photo, drawing, old quote, or current package if you have one. We take it from there.
