Tapered Hanging Tray with Lid

This depends entirely on the board grade and caliper chosen. Because the hanging hole supports the full weight of the package, heavy items will require a tear-resistant board. Physical testing with your actual product is advised.

Usually not. The webbed corners do not fold linearly, making them incompatible with conventional straight-line folder-gluers. Automated assembly often uses specialized tray-forming equipment. Otherwise, they are erected by hand.

The webbed corners create a continuous base without cut edges, which helps prevent dry items or crumbs from escaping. However, to hold liquids or grease, the carton should be manufactured from a poly-coated or barrier board and the corners should be properly sealed.

Yes. Graphics placed on the tapered side panels should be warped or conically distorted in the design file so that they look straight and level once the box is folded into its 3D shape.

This carton is designed for retail display and presentation. The tapered walls and hanging hole do not provide the structural strength needed for parcel delivery networks. It should be packed inside a corrugated outer box for shipping.

The tapered profile makes vertical stacking unstable. They are designed to be hung on pegboards or placed individually on shelves or counters.

They can be left unglued, relying on the closed lid to hold the box's shape. However, gluing or heat-sealing the corners provides much better stability and helps keep the base secure.

If the food is greasy or moist, a poly-coated board or a specific barrier coating is usually selected. For dry, wrapped items, conventional folding boxboard may be sufficient.
