Straight tuck end carton

Both tuck flaps close from the same side, so the front panel shows a clean, unbroken face.

  • Clean front panel
  • Window-friendly
  • Ships flat

Preferred for premium retail and for cartons with a window or a large front graphic. Slightly more board than a reverse tuck, but a better-looking front.
