Open-Sided Wrap-Around Multipack Sleeve

While a sample can be folded by hand, production runs typically rely on automated wrap-around equipment to maintain tension while the closure sets.

This specific template uses arc cutouts tailored for cylinders. For square or rectangular products, a different wrap-around style with straight creases is usually a better fit.

Condensation can weaken standard paperboard. A specific board grade is often needed to prevent the base from sagging or the closure from failing.

The sleeve itself provides minimal vertical stacking strength due to the narrow pillars. The pallet load is primarily borne by the enclosed cylindrical products, such as glass jars or rigid plastic bottles.

We can cut a short run of samples on a CAD table, but because manual assembly cannot perfectly replicate machine tension, the final grip and retention should be validated on the actual packing equipment.

To create the open sides, large sections of board must be die-cut and stripped away as waste. The converter must reliably clear these large pieces during production.

The flat blank is wrapped over the grouped products and pulled tight by the machine before the closure is sealed, locking the tension in place.

Yes, the inside of the board can be printed, but visibility is limited once the products are loaded. The top and bottom panels offer better continuous billboard space.
