FEFCO code

A four-digit number naming a box design in the international case code kept by FEFCO, the European federation of corrugated board makers.

In practice

The first two digits give the series (02 slotted, 03 telescope, 04 folders, 07 ready-glued, 09 fittings) and the last two the design. Packgent cites the codes and draws its own diagrams.
