Use a bridge in carton packing for special fabrications that may become very wrinkled or crushed from the excess weight and pressure of other garments Recommended for cartons with 12 or more pieces of special fabrications. (silks, moleskin, velvets, etc) The cardboard used can be of a single corrugated quality Ends of the bridge are left open so there should be no need for a larger length in the outer carton, and no more than ¼ to ½ inch wider in width Please note that hangers should still be put in the garments Multiple Unit Set Guidelines When shipping a set of items that sell as a single selling unit, set labeling requirements are as follows: Brick & Mortar Sets on Hangers: Two-Piece Sets: o Insert bottoms hanger through the off-set loop on the tops hanger o Apply crown sizer to the top hanger only Three-Piece Sets: o Follow the above two-piece directive o Attach third garment hanger to the two-piece set using connector 9916N o Apply crown sizer to the top hanger only E-Commerce Set Guidelines: Carton Labeling 2 x 4 Set Label indicating SET DO NOT OPEN Set UPC on outside of Carton Any individual UPC codes need to be covered up/not visible Kohl s Department Stores 09/2018 Page 8 SET: DO NOT OPEN

PBS, Bulk) Internal components need to be sealed properly to avoid leakage or damage in transit Soft Home Packaging: Example product: bedding, pillows, pet beds Carton strength needs to withstand the transportation process while maintaining its shape. If the carton is overstuffed or corrugate is weak, sides will bulge making them non-conveyable Table Top Packaging: Contents of carton must be packed in a way that prevents breakage while being processed through the DCs and onto stores.
