The Seal End Auto Bottom is a custom-printed paperboard folding carton with a pre-glued, snap-flat base that locks the moment you open it, built for brands that pack by hand and need speed at the bench. Made from sturdy SBS or kraft paperboard, it ships flat and pops into a load-ready box in one motion.
The auto-bottom design saves a step on every unit, so a small team can fill more orders per shift without fighting fiddly tuck flaps. The sealed bottom holds weight cleanly, which makes it a dependable pick for retail goods, hardware, and direct-to-consumer kits that get tossed into a shipper.
