How Snap Lock Bottom Box Compares with Other Tuck Box Styles
Not sure this is the right style? Here is what sets the other styles apart.
- Straight Tuck End Box
This is a common box closure with flaps on the top and bottom that tuck inwards in the same direction to close the box. It's easy to assemble and open, making it a popular choice for various packaging needs.
- Reverse Tuck End Box
Similar to the straight tuck end, this box has top and bottom flaps that tuck inwards. However, for a reverse tuck end closure, the flaps fold in opposite directions.
- Auto Lock Bottom Box
Also known as crash lock base boxes, has pre-glued bottom that folds flat for storage and pops up into shape for use. The top closure can be designed in various styles, such as a tuck top or a fold-over top.
- Seal End Box
The seal end box has dust flaps and two other overlapping flaps for added protection. It suits products that need extra care against dust and damage.
