Abstract
An assembly for packaging a product includes a carton having a top, a bottom, and a side extending between the top and the bottom. At least one of the top, the bottom, and the side includes a movable section that is movable between a first position and a second position. The movable section is biased to the first position. The assembly also includes a heat-shrunk layer overlapping at least a portion of the carton for sealing the carton. The heat-shrunk layer holds the movable section in the second position against the bias.
