Simplex Box: The sidewalls of the Simplex box are preglued by the converter. It is typically hand erected by the user but it can be machine formed as well. The inner side panel is not as wide as the outer side panel. To create a more finished appearance and add additional strength, corner tabs can be glued to assist with erecting the box.

A folding simplex box is one of those everyday items you might take for granted, or perhaps you have asked yourself as you push your shopping cart past aisle after aisle of products on the shelves, “I wonder what goes into making one of these boxes?” Anyone who has ever walked through a “box shop” for the first time is stunned by the complexity and effort involved. Folding box manufacture is a combination of science, engineering and art; if you wanted to build a state-of-the-art factory from scratch, it would require an investment of tens of millions of dollars in complex, sophisticated equipment, not to mention a commitment to finding the highly skilled pressmen and craftsmen with the knowledge necessary to turn an idea into a finished folding box.

There are two decisions that must be made when designing an apparel box to market, ship and protect the product inside: what shape will the box take, and what graphics (images other than type) will be added to identify and sell the product? With advances in computer technology and CAD (Computer Aided Design), a client may see a full-color, three-dimensional mock-up of the finished product before any production costs are incurred.

The basic folding box begins as a simple, two-dimensional, four-sided tube with an extension at one end, the glue flap, which allows the tube to be folded into its three-dimensional shape. Various types of closures, such as tuck tops and dust flaps may be added on the top and bottom of the tube to create the final design.
