ABSTRACT:
A cardboard shipping carton is provided with an improved easy-open tearing arrangement. Body panels of the shipping carton have a conventional corrugated paperboard construction. A tear tape of material different from the corrugated paperboard is secured to the inside of the body panels with adhesive. A severing line generally opposite the tear tape is associated with each body panel. The appearance of the exposed edge is improved by providing border tape on an outside surface of each body panel with an upper edge of the outer tape aligned with the severing line. Preferably, a bottom edge of the tear tape is positioned below the top edge of the border tape, to provide a lower display portion. Also disclosed is a pull tab providing access to the tear tape from outside the carton. The pull tab is formed by cutting a portion of the body panel adjacent the tear tape to provide a pull tab having angled edges in opposing panel portions, on either side of the tear tape, which are inclined towards the tear tape in the general direction in which the tear tape is to be pulled.
