ABSTRACT:
A gable-top container made from a scored blank of paperboard and the like includes at least one fillet permanently attached to the outside surface of the gable rib panels which form the spout. The fillet comprises a thin strip of stiff material coated with a layer of adhesive. The strip is resistant to the carton-sealing process, and extends along a major portion of the panel length to transfer to applied container-opening forces to the tip of the spout where the gable rib panels are adjoined, preventing buckling of the gable rib panels. In the preferred embodiment, the portion of the fillets on the adjoining gable rib panels abut one another when the spout is in a closed condition. A secondary layer of adhesive having a lesser bonding force may overlay the abutting portions of the fillets to controllably seal the gable rib panels to each other at the particular desired bond strength.
