πτυσσόμενο κουτί / επίπεδη συσκευασία
Explanation:
Could you tell us what's it about?
Flatpack is "επίπεδη συσκευασία" or something that needs assembling ("συναρμολογούμενο", i.e. IKEA furniture), unless it refers to electronics: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flatpack_(electronics)

Here you could probably use "πτυσσόμενο κουτί" or "πτυσσόμενη συσκευασία".
