To begin your search, simply type a keyword into the search box found in the upper-left portion of the screen. Or, if you prefer, click on one of the categories in the left-hand column. Once your search results have appeared, click on the symbol in the upper right portion of the screen to toggle between thumbnail and list view.

Please be certain your search terms are spelled correctly.

The Continental Packaging Explorer supports Boolean full-text searches. The boolean full-text search capability supports the following operators:

+
A leading “plus sign” indicates that this word must be present in each row that is returned.

-
A leading minus sign indicates that this word must not be present in any of the rows that are returned. Note: The - operator acts only to exclude rows that are otherwise matched by other search terms. Thus, a boolean-mode search that contains only terms preceded by “-”returns an empty result. It does not return “all rows except those containing any of the excluded terms”.

No operator
By default (when neither + nor - is specified) the word is optional, but the rows that contain it are rated higher.

*
The asterisk serves as the truncation (or wildcard) operator. Unlike the other operators, it should be appended to the word to be affected. Words match if they begin with the word preceding the * operator.

"
A phrase that is enclosed within double quote (“"”) characters matches only rows that contain the phrase literally, as it was typed.

This page will reappear if there is an error with your search.

As always, a Continental staff member can be reached Monday through Friday by phone by calling toll-free (888) 676-5277 between the hours of 8:30 am and 5:00 pm central time.
