A stackable corrugated was box is a specialized box to be used to store food products in cold storage. The box is supplied with a built in slat or spacer at the bottom of the box. The spacer is generally rectangular shaped and is approximately thirteen by nineteen inches (1319) and one inch (1) thick. The bottom surface is provided with approximately eight (8) pedestals to produce an egg-crate like bottom with open areas all of the way across the bottom. This open area allows for air flow across the entire bottom area of the box, thus allowing for rapid freezing times when compared to conventional boxes that are stacked upon one another.

The invention provides a stabilized load tray for supporting a load stack, the stabilized load tray comprising: a horizontal floor; vertical side walls connected to the floor; a top connected to the side walls; and a deployable lip connected to the top, wherein the deployable lip can be folded from a substantially horizontal position to a substantially vertical position adjacent the load stack.

A collection of stackable articles is disclosed. Each stackable article of the collection of stackable articles has a bottom, at least one sidewall, and a top. The collection of stackable articles comprises a supporting medium, a first slip sheet disposed upon a surface of the supporting medium, and a first plurality of the stackable articles arranged in a first layer upon the first slip sheet.

Package includes stacks of empty containers matingly stacked, panels each having a main surface with peripheral walls, and support members. A first level includes a first panel, one or more stacks of egg containers laid horizontally on the main surface of the first panels within the peripheral walls, and said support members extending from the first panel to a top of the first level. A second level includes a second panel laid on the first level in contact with the support members, one or more stacks of containers laid horizontally on a surface of the second panel within the peripheral walls, and support members extending from the second panel to a top of the second level. A panel is disposed on an uppermost level and having its peripheral walls covering a top of the sides of the uppermost level and in contact with the support members of the uppermost level.

Embodiments relate to a cover, a method of covering, and a cover system for shipments of products transported by air with ULDs. The cover system can be adapted to any skid such as wooden or plastic pallets used for smaller loads used in air transport or any other mode of transportation. The cover system can include one or multiple parts. Each part of the cover system can be made of one or more layers. Each layer can be made of a single material or a combination of different materials. Different parts of the cover can be made of different materials or different combination of materials. The cover system provides thermal protection to temperature-sensitive products in or on the ULD. The cover system maintains the proper relative humidity level and gas concentrations for horticultural product loads. The cover system decreases the amount of water vapor released in the cargo holds.

A ratchet spool (59) for use in a winding assembly (16) is disclosed. The ratchet spool (59) is rotatable about a principal axis (61). The ratchet spool (59) comprises a main part (20) and a plurality of ratchet teeth (60) arranged circumferentially around the main part (20). The ratchet teeth (60) are engageable by a ratchet arrangement (18) for driving the ratchet spool (59) in a driving direction about said principal axis (61). The ratchet spool (59) also has a drive formation (21) for driving the ratchet spool (59) in said driving direction.

A corner piece is provided for forming packaging elements. The corner piece includes an inner member and an outer member having respective apexes. A connecting member connects the inner and outer members and substantially aligns their apexes, while spacing the inner and outer members apart from one another. A securing element is provided in the outer member for securing an exterior edge protector along the outer member. The securing element includes substantially U-shaped retaining walls engageable with the exterior edge protector. In some embodiments, the spacing between the inner and outer members defines retaining cavities for securing adjacent sidewalls of a storage container.

Systems and methods for airflow management around palletized cases of goods in a warehouse storage facility are provided, in which airflow around each individual layer of cases is facilitated while airflow spillage around the sides, top or bottom of pallet assemblies is minimized or eliminated. One exemplary device for such airflow management includes palletized product spacers disposed between respective layers of vertically stacked cases, in which the product spacers facilitate a substantially unidirectional longitudinal airflow. Another exemplary airflow management device is a series of automatically adjustable air dams disposed at the tops of respective pallet assemblies which prevent air spillage and establish intermediate air manifold spaces. Yet another device is a lateral pallet spacer prevents direct abutment of the side surfaces of neighboring pallet assemblies and thereby ensures that the air manifold spaces are in fluid communication with the spacers of multiple pallet assemblies.

An external packaging for safeguarding at least one package during transportation is provided. The external packaging includes at least one carrier element with an upper side and a lower side, wherein the carrier element includes at least one base part directed toward the lower side and at least one border directed toward the upper side, and wherein the carrier element is at least partially open toward the upper side and is configured to carry the package. The external packaging furthermore has at least one bag element which is configured to surround the package carried by the carrier element. The bag element is arranged relative to the carrier element in such a manner that the bag element, at least in a maximum filling state, extends on the upper side of the carrier element beyond the border of the carrier element.

A product package for displaying a bath product is provided and includes a package outer structure and a package inner structure, wherein the package outer structure is configured to define an inner cavity for containing product and wherein the package outer structure includes cutout portions to define a first display window and a second display window for displaying two views of the bath product. The package inner structure is configured to be contained within the inner cavity such that when contained within the inner cavity the package inner structure supports a first bath product such that at least a portion of the first bath product is displayed in the first display window, and wherein the package outer structure supports a second bath product such that at least a portion of the second bath product is displayed in the second display window.
