However, when a customer sees a smaller carton for the same price, they may associate the smaller product carton with fewer items in the carton, thus guessing that the product in the smaller carton may not have the larger carton The product is cost-effective

example

[0041] In order to further illustrate the invention by way of example, a 160-piece The bottom plate of the facial tissue box (box 1) is removed. These 160 tissue paper towels are 3.25 inches tall in their uncompressed state. Take these tissue pieces out of the box. Remove the top plate of the second same facial tissue box (box 2) again. Cut two slots in each long side panel of the second box. The slots are cut about 1 / 2 inch from the end plate and cut to within 1 / 2 inch of the bottom surface. These cutouts allow the first box with the bottom plate removed to fit over the second box with the top plate removed. The distribution box thus obtained is Figure 4 Similar to that shown, where box 1 has been modified to become the top of the expandable dispensing box, and box 2 has been modified to be the bottom of the expandable dispensing box. 92 tissues were removed from box 1 and placed on top of the 160 tissue paper towels (stack) in box 2 (now the bottom). Discard the tis...

Abstract

The invention discloses tissue products which comprise an expandable dispensing carton and a compressed stack of folded tissues, such as facial tissues, and can significantly reduce costs associated with shipping such low density products. Expansion of the expandable dispensing carton can be activated by the user or the retailer, thereby releasing the compression of the tissue stack and allowing the tissues to be dispensed normally.

Description

Background technique [0001] When shipping folded tissue products such as boxed facial tissues, a significant portion of the shipping costs incurred are spent on transporting air due to the low density of tissue. Therefore, when transported by a truck or the like, the volumetric carrying capacity of the truck is saturated before its load-bearing carrying capacity. Additionally, the bulky tissue products take up shelf space on the retailer's shelves, thereby limiting the amount of merchandise the retailer can stock. Unfortunately, packing more tissues into a given carton to increase shipping cost efficiencies and / or reduce retail shelf space footprint will create compression within the stacked tissues and thus make it difficult for the user to remove from the paper towels. Remove the first few tissues from the box without tearing them. [0002] While retailers often want products that take up less shelf space, there are some downsides to using compressed or condensed products....
