Abstract

A carton has an outer box and a liner that is glued to an inner surface of the box during assembly. The outer box includes front and back panels joined by perpendicularly extending side panels, and top and bottom panel that define a chamber therebetween in which can be inserted manuals, literature, documentation or the like. The liner is disposed in the chamber of the box. The liner includes a front panel and a back panel joined by perpendicularly extending side panels. The front, back and side panels have dimensions substantially similar to those of the front, back and side panels of the box, respectively. The liner further including a plurality of cutouts in the front panel that define a retaining panel and sidewalls. Upon assembly of the carton, the cutouts allow the retaining panel to move inwardly into the chamber so that the sidewalls extend substantially perpendicularly between the front panel of the liner and the retaining panel. The retaining panel, sidewalls and box define a recess in which an object such as a computer disc, audio cassette, or video tape can be inserted. The cell is open along a top edge to allow the object to be easily inserted therein. The integral cell erects automatically when glue lines are properly applied on the liner and the carton is formed. Top and bottom flaps preferably are included in the liner to provide increased carton strength and rigidity.
