Nomura Research Institute, Ltd.This corrugated box can be opjs555888金沙ed instantly, improving work efficijs555888金沙cy for in-store display.

Corrugated boxes for beverages and beer are prone to breakage during opening, whereas this box is designed so that when the opening in the center of the top surface is lifted, the Corrumishin on the box body is open and the box instantly becomes a tray.Developed wijs555888金沙 Coca-Cola (Japan) Co., Ltd.

The flap is firmly closed without the corrugated being crushed, which improces the lock function, providing better resistance to disjs555888金沙agement.
The bottom surface also has a locking function to prevjs555888金沙t tampering. These features contributed to reducing the use of binding bands.Developed wijs555888金沙 Saishunkan Co., Ltd.
