Abstract
There is disclosed a flat end closure arrangement for a thermoplastic coated paperboard container, and the blank therefor, wherein a suitable adhesive or anti-sealant is applied to four sets of four quadrant areas around intersections of score lines about which adjacent panels are folded both laterally and longitudinally in substantially 180.degree. bends, to provide areas of slippage between selected adjacent panels, thereby diminishing the chances of cracking of the thermoplastic coating at the bend locations.
