How do I size this generator for a 4-pack vs. a 6-pack of 12oz (330ml) beer bottles?

A standard 12oz / 330ml longneck bottle has a 61mm–66mm diameter. For a 4-pack (2×2 grid), set Length = 138mm and Width = 138mm. For a 6-pack (3×2 grid), set Length = 206mm and Width = 138mm.

Can this carrier also be used as a 4-cup takeaway coffee carrier?

Yes! Set Length = 180mm, Width = 180mm, and Height = 190mm on 1.5mm E-flute corrugated board to hold four 12oz/16oz takeaway cups securely.

What paperboard grade prevents the bottle carrier handle from tearing under condensation?

Use 420–500gsm Coated Unbleached Kraft (CUK / SUS) wet-strength beverage carrier board or 1.5mm E-flute virgin kraft corrugated board with grain running vertically into the handle riser.

Are the top hand-grip cutouts reinforced against tearing?

Yes, both the front and back riser panels include dual aligned stadium grip cutouts that double up when laminated or folded together, doubling the tensile tear strength at the carrying handle.

Structural Geometry & Material Reference (ECMA Beverage Basket Carrier / FEFCO Handle Pack)

The Beverage Bottle Carrier Basket is the industry-standard retail multipack structure for craft beer bottles (330ml/12oz and 500ml), cold-pressed juice bottles, hot sauce sets, and coffee shop takeaway cups. Engineered from high-wet-strength CUK (Coated Unbleached Kraft) or E-flute corrugated board, it combines a perimeter tray basket, central vertical riser panels with reinforced ergonomic die-cut hand grip slots, and interlocking bottom flaps.

Carrier Footprint Length for 2x2 (4-Pack) or 3x2 (6-Pack)

L_carrier = N_cols * (D_bottle + 2 mm) + T_divider

Sizes the total carrier length from individual bottle diameter plus cell divider allowance.

Side Basket Wall Height (H_basket_wall)

H_basket_wall = 0.52 * H_total

Sets the outer retaining wall height to slightly above the bottle's center of gravity while exposing the upper label.
