Foldable box template with internal glue flap

A foldable box, comprising:

• a top surface formed by a first top flap and an opposing second top flap;
• a bottom surface formed by a first bottom flap and an opposing second bottom flap;
• four sidewalls extending between the top surface and the bottom surface;
• a first intermediate crease extending across the first top flap, a first sidewall, and the first bottom flap, the first intermediate crease being unfolded along a width of the first sidewall;
• and
• a second intermediate crease extending across the second top flap, a second sidewall opposite the first sidewall, and the second bottom flap, the second intermediate crease being unfolded along a width of the second sidewall, and the second intermediate crease being offset from the first intermediate crease.

A method of making a box, comprising:

• providing a foldable box template having first, second, third, fourth, and fifth primary segments separated by creases, each of the primary segments having a length, a width, and one or more flaps, and each of the first primary segment and the third primary segment having an intermediate crease that subdivides each of the first primary segment and the third primary segment into two subsections along the lengths of the first primary segment and the third primary segment;
• folding the foldable box template along the intermediate crease of the third primary segment, such that the fifth primary segment overlies a portion of the first primary segment;
• while the intermediate crease of the third primary segment is still folded, folding the foldable box template along the intermediate crease of the first primary segment, such that a portion of the first primary segment overlies the fifth primary segment;
• after folding the foldable box template along the intermediate crease of the first primary segment, attaching the first primary segment to either the fourth primary segment or the fifth primary segment;
• unfolding the foldable box template along the intermediate creases;
• folding the foldable box template along the creases between the primary segments to form four sidewalls;
• and
• folding the one or more flaps of the primary segments to form top and bottom surfaces of the box.

A foldable template for forming a box, comprising:

• a plurality of identifiable sections that are arranged in first, second, third, fourth, and fifth columns and first, second, and third rows, each column having a length and each row having a width,
• the first column including a top flap in the first row, a center section in the second row, a bottom flap in the third row, and an intermediate crease extending through the top flap, the center section, and the bottom flap to subdivide the first column into a first subsection and a second subsections along the length of the first column, the first column being disposed at a first end of the template;
• the second column including a top flap in the first row, a center section in the second row, and a bottom flap in the third row;
• the third column including a top flap in the first row, a center section in the second row, a bottom flap in the third row, and an intermediate crease extending through the top flap, the center section, and the bottom flap to subdivide the third column into a first subsection and a second subsection along the length of the third column;
• the fourth column including a top flap in the first row, a center section in the second row, and a bottom flap in the third row;
• and
• the fifth column including a top flap in the first row, a center section in the second row, and a bottom flap in the third row, the fifth column being disposed at a second end of the template opposite the first column, the length of the fifth column being substantially equal to a length of the first subsection of the first column.
