ABSTRACT:
A carton blank including a reinforced hang tab. The hang tab includes a tab having an upper portion, a top edge defined by a fold line and a cutout formed in the upper portion. A foldover panel is connected to the tab at the fold line. The foldover panel has first and second side flaps and a middle bridge portion that define a notch formed in the foldover panel. Upon assembly, the foldover panel is folded along the fold line and secured to the tab so that the notch overlaps the tab cutout to form a reinforced hang tab with an opening formed therein. The first and second side flaps and the middle bridge portion of the foldover panel reinforce the opening and the upper portion of the upper tab to prevent the tab from easily ripping or breaking. The lower tab that is secured to the bottom portion of the upper tab is configured to correspond to the notch in the foldover panel.
