Abstract

A side-filled, flip-top reclosable carton comprises opposing top and bottom walls and opposing front and back walls where the front wall includes inner and outer panels. First and second top minor flaps extend from opposing ends of the top wall. First and second bottom minor flaps extend from opposing ends of the bottom wall. First and second back major flaps extend from opposing ends of the back wall. First and second wing flaps extend from opposing ends of the front inner panel. First and second front major flaps extend from opposing ends of the front outer panel. The first and second front major flaps and the front outer panel including a continuous horizontal tear strip for opening up the carton from a sealed form to form a lid hingedly attached to a base section. The first top and bottom minor flaps, the first front and back major flaps, and the first wing flap are uniquely designed to permit sealing of the first side wall using a conventional flap folding sequence so that the carton is entirely compatible with conventional form-fill-seal equipment. The various second flaps are similarly folded and glued using the conventional folding sequence to form a second side wall opposing the first side wall.
