How It Works

  1. 1

    A flat carton blank is drawn from a magazine by vacuum pickers.

  2. 2

    The blank is erected into a square box and held by a forming tool.

  3. 3

    The product (and any leaflet) is inserted.

  4. 4

    Hot-melt glue is applied to the closing flaps, which are folded and tucked.

  5. 5

    The glued flaps are pressed to set the seal and the finished carton is discharged to the outfeed.

Heritage & Lineage

Glue cartoning is a standard secondary-packaging technology — forming a flat folding-carton blank into a box, loading the product and sealing it with hot-melt adhesive for a tamper-evident closure. It sits at the retail-ready stage of the line.

Frequently Asked Questions

Glue cartoner vs tuck cartoner — what is the difference?

A glue cartoner seals the end flaps with hot-melt adhesive for a permanent, tamper-evident closure; a tuck cartoner folds and tucks flaps so the carton can be reopened.

Where does it sit in the line?

At the secondary-packaging stage, taking primary packs (strips, sachets, bottles) into a retail-ready folding carton — often just before an overwrapper or bundler.

What carton sizes can it handle?

Carton size and board weight are tooling-dependent; request the change-part range and min/max carton dimensions from MOI.
