International fibreboard case code
This Code has been developed by FEFCO and ESBO as an official system to substitute long and complicated verbal descriptions of fibreboard case and packaging constructions with simple symbols internationally understood by all, regardless of language and other differences. The references may be used in orders and specifications for packing cases. Additions andmodifications may only be made by FEFCO and ESBO.

The layouts of the styles in this Code are always viewed from the inside of the case.

Case dimensions
Unless otherwise specified alldimensions are expressed as internal dimensions in mm as follows: Length (L) x Breadth (B) x Height (H) Length (L) = the longer dimension at the opening Breadth (B) = the shorter dimension at the opening Height (H) = the dimension from the top of the opening to the base The dimensions L, B, H are specified in each description of the case construction, for some models the numerical value of B canexceed the numerical value of L. Dimensions should be measured under standard climatic conditions, on the flat blank from the centre of crease bearing the thickness of the material in mind. For telescope-type boxes the height (h) of the upper part (lid) should be given as a fourth measurement after an oblique stroke, i.e. 55 x 205 x 120/0 mm (L) (B) (H) (h) For cases with overlapping outer flapsthe length of the area of overlapping (o) should be given as a fourth measurement after an oblique stroke, i.e. 55 x 205 x 120/0 mm (L) (B) (H) (o)

This type may also be described as 020/0215 (Top flaps. Bottom flaps). 0204 0215 0204/0215

Styles and the manufacturers joint
The drawing style layouts as shown in this Code may need to be re-arranged depending on the Manufacturers Jointchosen. Some styles may have a Manufacturers Joint which may be glued, stitched or taped. A glued or stitched Joint may be an extension of either the short or the long panel. The sketches show how these would be indicated on a drawing: Example for all styles:

Sheet dimensions
Unless otherwise specified, the dimensions of a corrugated sheet are expressed in mm as follows: 1st dimension...
