What Is a Gable Cereal Box?
A gable box gets its name from its peaked, house-shaped top, formed by folding and locking the top panels into a fold-up handle. Unlike a standard tuck-top or auto-bottom cereal carton, the gable structure gives the box a distinct silhouette on shelf and doubles as a convenient way for the customer to carry it home. The base construction still uses the same food-safe paperboard as our standard cereal box line, so the format adds functionality without sacrificing durability.
