Tuck top

Tucks in behind the front panel when closed.

Dust flaps

Keep dust from entering the box, and adds a layer to the unboxing.

Pre-glued autobottom

Panels lock in place when box is opened for faster fulfillment. These pre-glued panels add cost because of the specialty gluing.

Why use a tuck top autobottom?

Used for both folding cartons and corrugated, a Tuck Top Autobottom is the fastest to set up in fulfillment and does not require any tape.

Slightly faster to assemble than the Tuck Top Snap Lock Bottom (TTSLB).
