Make this box About the reverse tuck carton
Folded shut and measured in 3D: the cavity is 122 × 40 × 40 mm and the product block fits without touching the board. Free to open and change; €2.50 for the PDF, €3.50 for the DXF or SVG.
Why these numbers
Six macarons stacked in a slim tower carton. A shell is 35 to 40 mm across; the carton is 2 mm wider than the largest.
Food. If the food touches the board, ask your board supplier for food-contact grade board. The drawing sets the shape; it does not make the board food-safe.
Every size on this page is an example to start from. Products change between models, editions and makers, so measure the one you are packing.
Where the product size comes from
Six macarons: from a general reference site, not the manufacturer.

The flat blank
- Reverse tuck (ECMA A20.20.03.01): the top closes from the back, the bottom from the front. Nests more economically on the sheet.
- The tuck flap is 0.60 mm narrower on each side than the closing panel - a full caliper plus clearance - so it slides past the side walls and the glue seam.
- Closing order: dust flaps in, closing panel over them, tuck flap behind the wall.
