FEFCO · 2D DIELINE
Flange-Top Container with RSC Base
FEFCO 0209
A regular slotted base finished with a flanged top rim — the flange stiffens the opening and gives a lid or film something to seat against.

STRUCTURE NOTES
About this construction.
Reading the code FEFCO 0209
The 02 series holds the slotted-type boxes: one-piece bodies die-cut from a single blank, joined with a glued, stitched or taped manufacturer's joint, and closed by flaps on the top and bottom. Slotted boxes ship flat and erect quickly, which is why this series carries most of the world's shipping cartons.
Within the series, 0209 is the design published as the Flange Top Container – RSC Bottom. The four-digit code carries the full structural intent — specify it to any converter and both sides mean the same construction; only dimensions and board grade remain to be agreed.
How the structure behaves
The base closes like a regular slotted container, but the top does not close at all: the upper edge finishes as a folded flange rim instead of flaps. The flange stiffens the opening and leaves the contents accessible.
Typical uses
Open-top duty: picking bins, transit-to-shelf trays and cases where product is loaded from above and stays visible or reachable.
Dimensions and board
The parameters above — internal length, width and depth, plus any construction-specific values this style needs — drive the whole blank: panel layout, flap depths and slot positions all derive from them, validated against the template's supported range. The 2D dieline and the 3D fold preview regenerate together from the same parametric structure.
A corrugated dieline is a starting point for production, not a substitute for converter judgment: flute profile, board grade and joint style all affect final dimensions and crush behavior. Confirm tolerances and material with your manufacturer before mass production — and erect the structure on screen first, so flap collisions and proportion problems surface before any tooling is ordered.
COMMON QUESTIONS
Quick answers about this template.
What is Flange-Top Container with RSC Base?
FEFCO 0209 is the corrugated design published in the FEFCO International Fibreboard Case Code as the Flange Top Container – RSC Bottom; the four-digit code specifies the full construction, leaving only dimensions and board grade to agree.
Which dimensions does the Flange-Top Container with RSC Base dieline need?
5 parameters drive the blank: L (length), W (width), D (depth), B (border), Corrugated cardboard thickness (mm). Each value is validated against the template's supported range, and the whole dieline regenerates from them.
Can I see how Flange-Top Container with RSC Base folds before cutting it?
Yes. The interactive 3D fold preview and the 2D dieline are generated from the same parametric structure, so the fold you watch on screen is the geometry of the sheet you cut. Open the template in the preview studio to fold it at your own dimensions.
