Key Features
Custom RSC Boxes — The Industry Standard for Efficient Shipping and Storage
The Regular Slotted Container (RSC) is the most widely produced corrugated box format in the world — and for good reason. Its simple four-flap design folds from a single corrugated blank with no waste material, uses every available square inch of board efficiently, and assembles with a simple fold-and-tape operation compatible with both hand-packing and automated case-erecting equipment. The RSC has been the global shipping standard for over a century because it works.
Custom RSC boxes for e-commerce and retail distribution start with the right board specification for your product weight and distribution environment. We select B-flute, C-flute, or double-wall construction with the appropriate ECT rating, and print your brand artwork on the exterior for brand impact during transit and delivery.
RSC Flap Design and Assembly
The RSC features four major flaps (two inner and two outer) that fold over each other to close both top and bottom. The outer flaps meet at the center and are secured with tape, staples, or hot melt adhesive. The geometry is designed so that the flap length equals half the box width — this ensures the flaps meet at center without overlap or gap. Deviations from this geometry compromise closure integrity and are a sign of incorrect box sizing.
RSC Box Sizing for DIM Weight Optimization
Carriers charge the greater of actual weight or dimensional weight (length × width × height ÷ DIM factor). An RSC box sized with excess void space is charged at dimensional weight that can significantly exceed the actual product weight. We help brands size RSC boxes for minimal void space around their specific product dimensions, reducing carrier DIM weight charges on every shipment.
Custom Packaging for Pennsylvania's Diverse Economy
Pennsylvania has two great metropolitan economies — Philadelphia and Pittsburgh — that are simultaneously distinctly different and comprehensively powerful. Philadelphia is a major pharmaceutical, finance, and logistics hub, home to Comcast and dozens of major corporations. Pittsburgh has reinvented itself from steel to technology and healthcare, now home to Google, Uber, and Carnegie Mellon's robotics leadership. Between them, Pennsylvania's manufacturing heritage, agricultural communities, and artisan culture create a rich and diverse packaging market.
Philadelphia Pharmaceutical and Healthcare Packaging
Philadelphia is one of America's most important pharmaceutical cities — GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, and dozens of biotech companies operate in the Greater Philadelphia area. FDA-compliant pharmaceutical packaging with batch documentation, child-resistant closures, and clinical trial kit capabilities for Pennsylvania's pharmaceutical sector is a core Branded Boxes capability.
Pittsburgh Technology and Innovation Packaging
Pittsburgh's Silicon Smoke has replaced the steel mills — Carnegie Mellon, Uber ATG, Google, and a thriving autonomous vehicle and AI startup scene make Pittsburgh one of America's most interesting technology cities. Technology product packaging and startup launch packaging for Pittsburgh's innovation community from 50 units.
Pennsylvania Artisan and Food Brand Packaging
Pennsylvania's Lancaster County has one of America's most celebrated artisan food cultures — Amish and traditional Pennsylvania Dutch food producers, specialty cheeses, craft meats, and baked goods that command premium prices nationally. Natural packaging materials and authentic design for Pennsylvania's artisan food brands.
