Abstract
Blanks for forming open sided containers and mating covers from carton stock material include strips of non-stick material secured to the blank by means of a strippable adhesive. The adhesive adheres to the carton stock material with a substantially higher adherence force than the adherence force between the adhesive and the non-stick material, so that the non-stick material can be removed, readily, to expose the tacky surface of the adhesive. The carton blanks are marked with a predetermined pattern of fold or crease lines which allows the blank to be bent and folded into the shape of a container or a container cover. The non-stick material facilitates handling and separation of individual blanks that have been shipped and stored in tightly packed, stacked arrays, while the exposed adhesive surface engages specifically formed tabs and/or flaps of the blank in overlapping, abutting relationships to secure the blank in its final, assembled, container/cover shape.
