A blank can include a main panel and a locking tab extending from and separable from the main panel and including a first tab subpanel, a second tab subpanel, and a third tab subpanel; the first tab subpanel extending from the main panel, the second tab subpanel extending from the first tab subpanel and joined to the first tab subpanel at a first bend line, and the third tab subpanel extending from the second tab subpanel and joined to the second tab subpanel at a second bend line.

A method comprising obtaining a box comprising a box top defining a locking tab separable from the box top and comprising first, second, and third tab subpanels; the locking tab and the first tab subpanel thereof extending from at least one of a first main panel and a first end panel of the box, the second tab subpanel extending from and joined to the first tab subpanel, and the third tab subpanel extending from and joined to the second tab subpanel; and a box bottom comprising a second main panel; a second end panel joined thereto; and a tab connected to the second main panel and defining a locking opening; bending the third tab subpanel with respect to the second tab subpanel; inserting the locking tab into a gap defined at least in part by the second end panel; and engaging the locking tab with the locking opening.

A packing case blank including an opening device comprising a paper tear strip attached to the blank by a layer of adhesive.

A product package includes a frame part provided with a base and walls. Edge parts on the top edge of the walls are folded outwards to form a flat edge section, where the frame part is a recess for product packing. The frame part is preferably a recyclable fiber material and the recess is lined on the inside with a separate inner lining removable from the frame part. The edge section functions as a fastening surface for the inner lining. The inner lining and the edge parts are arranged to form a one-piece and unbroken edge section of the package as a fastening surface for the inner lining. Adjacent edge parts are fastened in a leakproof manner at their ends to each other with a butt seam forming a corner seam and the fastening is reinforced with a reinforcement piece fastened under the corner seam and edge section ends.

A corrugated fibreboard packing case is disclosed, comprising a plurality of side panels, a base and a lid arranged such that the packing case defines an enclosed interior volume when the lid is in a closed configuration; and, first and second adhesive regions arranged such that when the lid is in the closed configuration, the first and second adhesive regions overlap, wherein each of the first and second adhesive regions comprises an adhesive substantially covered with a release liner, whereby the release liners may be removed and the adhesives of the first and second adhesive regions adhered to each other to maintain the lid in the closed configuration. A blank for a packing case, and a method for manufacturing a packing case, are also disclosed.

The present disclosure is directed to a box for use in packaging, storing and displaying items. The box has a one-dimensional configuration before it is formed and a three-dimensional configuration after it is formed. The three-dimensional configuration is formed from a blank which lies flat and has a plurality of fold lines. A second blank may be employed in forming the box. The three dimensional configuration of the box includes a base portion, four side portions, a cover portion and a platform within the interior of the box that is capable of moving in an angled manner out from the interior of the box upon opening the box and of moving inside the interior of the box upon closing the box.
