Abstract (en)
The present invention relates to shipping containers formed from generally flat material such as cardboard or paperboard. More specifically, the invention relates to a shipping container box which is assembled without fastening one major edge with a glue flap or equivalent structure. The container is assembled from top (1), bottom (3), left and right side panels (2,4) and associated flaps on each panel, but does not include a glue flap. The top (13) of the container may be opened by removal of top flaps from attachment points, to allow access to contained items or to display the contained items. The container functions both as a shipping container and a display case. <IMAGE>
