00:00:20
If you have new people or looking for new applications for new
Speaker:
00:00:23
equipment, this resource can help.
Speaker:
00:00:26
The carton style resource shows carton configurations, commonly
Speaker:
00:00:30
used in the packaging industry.
Speaker:
00:00:33
Through a virtual story, you can browse through the styles and see their common
Speaker:
00:00:36
uses while you look at them in 3d.
Speaker:
00:00:40
