Understand the straight-tuck closure

The EFB-01 Straight Tuck End uses tuck flaps at the two ends that close in the same direction. That layout can suit a range of small retail products, but the right dimensions depend on the item and any wrap or insert inside.

Plan the flat artwork around the folds

Provide the filled product measurements and identify the front panel, opening end and any information that should remain visible on shelf. A dieline or sample helps clarify the panel sequence before print artwork is final.
