ABSTRACT:
A folding carton for a display container including a front panel, a back panel, a top panel, a bottom panel, and a flap are provided, which can yield a display box which overcomes drawbacks in the prior art. The extra flap can be hinged behind the center of gravity of the box. Preferably, the hinge is at the top of the storage portion of the box and a hanging portion of preferably double thickness with a fold preferably at the top thereof can be above the storage portion. A hole can be formed in this hanging portion. In one embodiment, the weight of the box will cause it to close the gap between the box and the extra flap when the box is hung from a hook. The extra flap can be hinged at a front side of the box. Also, offsets can be provided in the flap, so that the back of the printed box material will remain covered when the box is viewed from the front. The box is particularly useful for containing drugs. The box is advantageously formed from a single piece of material, such as cardboard or paperboard and the like.
