  • WHITE PAPER Gable-Top Cartons Considerations for This Container Choice Are High End Graphics and a Quick Turnaround Realistic for Gable-Top Cartons?
    WHITE PAPER Gable-Top Cartons Considerations For This Container Choice Are High End Graphics and a Quick Turnaround Realistic for Gable-Top Cartons? A Little History. Like many multifaceted printers serving food, pharma and consumer packaged good (CPG) categories, our customers’ requests can vary widely. We try to keep our facility and equipment state-of-the-art so we can accommodate a wide range of specifications. In the last five years, we started noticing a trend. Our customers wanting gable top cartons always seem to have the same request – how can I get high end, creative graphics with quick turnaround? Customers using the larger sizes of gable top cartons (the gallon size for example) and customers using heavier, coated paperboard (more commonly called milk stock) especially found their printing choices to be limited to flexographic printing, less sturdy paperboard and low quality graphics. We heard major challenges such as print registration being so poor that you couldn’t even read an ingredients list. The reasons for choosing gable-top cartons were clear to us - customers want the billboard space to tell their story. Cartons give you room for branding and selling. And gable-top cartons can be significantly more affordable, costing up to 30% less than their plastic tub counterparts. If you use plastic to contain your product, you are limited to options and subjected heavily to the petroleum market. After hearing some of these challenges, Carton Service decided to take a look. We evaluated the market and our capabilities and found that there might be an opportunity to help an underserved market.

  • Making a Birdfeeder from Creatively Repurposed Materials
    Making a Birdfeeder from Creatively Repurposed Materials Helpful Hints: Be sure the container is washed and completely clean. Save the lid when washing a soda bottle. Remove the labels. If there is a strong smell after washing, fill with water and add several tablespoons of baking soda. Let sit for an hour, Wash again. After washing, let the container dry completely. Have a parent help you if you are cutting with a sharp tool. Try creating a feeder by using the bottle or carton upside down! Use twigs or sticks from your yard as perches. Do not use glitter, toxic paint, or items that may harm birds. Be sure there are no sharp edges on the feeder. When you take your feeder home, place it where birds can easily reach it. Place your birdfeeders in places that aren’t too windy, have good cover nearby, and minimize other hazards. Making a Birdfeeder from Creatively Repurposed Materials A couple simple recycled bird feeder options are a 20-ounce plastic bottle or a quart or half-gallon cardboard drink carton. For either one, simply wash it out well, cut two to three sets of holes opposite each other at varying levels and insert old wooden spoons all the way through. Attach twine at the top to hang it by, and fill with your favorite bird seed. ****************************************************************************** Punch holes on either side of a plastic pop bottle, stick a twig all the way through with its ends sticking out for perches and poking more holes nearby for the birds to pull the seeds out.
