An article has two configurations including a shipping configuration box and a display configuration box. The article is formed from a folded cardboard blank which includes a sidewall portion, a plurality of top flaps, a plurality of bottom flaps, and a support tab. The sidewall portion is vertically bounded between a top fold line and a bottom fold line. The plurality of bottom flaps are joined to the sidewall portion along the bottom fold line. One of the bottom flaps extends from the bottom fold line to a distal edge which defines a tab fold line. The support tab is joined to the distal edge along the tab fold line. The support tab is configured to fold upwardly along the tab fold line and to engage an edge of a product container to support the product container in an upright orientation for product display.

The use of hemp paper for use to manufacture cardboard cartons or corrugated boxes.

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.

A paperboard article (1) for making a container (8) comprises an annular frame (2), which surrounds an internal zone (20), and a plurality of wings (3) connected to the annular frame (2). Each wing (3) comprises a first portion (31) and a second portion (32), wherein the second portion (32) is connected to the annular frame (2) and is interposed between the annular frame (2) and the first portion (31). The paperboard article (1) is configured to adopt a flat configuration and an expanded configuration. In the flat configuration, the paperboard article (1) has a substantially planar shape and the wings (3) are coplanar without overlapping each other. In the expanded configuration, the paperboard article (1) has a substantially tray-like shape, wherein the annular frame (2) forms an annular flange (71), the first portions (31) of the wings (3) form a bottom wall (72) and the second portions (32) of the wings (3) form lateral walls (73). For at least one pair of wings (3), the first portion (31) of a first wing has a seat (34) and the first portion (31) of a second wing has a projection (35) that is housed in the seat (34) of the first wing: in the expanded configuration, an edge section (37) of the projection (35) makes contact with an edge section (36) of the seat (34).

This document describes an assembly structure for corrugated packaging. The assembly structure is made from a single flat piece of fiberboard, including a center panel, two partial side panels, and two tabbed side panels. The center panel forms the bottom (or top) of the packaging. Tabbed side panels form two sides of the packaging, and the partial side panels, combined with the tabs or the tabbed side panels form the other two sides. The assembly structure can be made from corrugated fiberboard. The flutes of the corrugated fiberboard run in a direction that causes, when the panels are folded, the flutes of the two tabbed side panels to be vertical, providing strength in the stacking direction. While the flutes in the partial panels are horizontal, when the tabs of the tabbed side panels are folded to mate with the partial side panels, the flutes of the tabs are also vertical.

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.

Blanks for forming two-compartment containers and the resulting containers are described herein. The container includes a tray and four closure flaps hingedly connected thereto. The closure flaps can be closed to enclose food or other substances therein, or opened to provide access to and removal of the tray contents. The tray is separated into two compartments by an interior partition. Generally, each compartment is liquid tight. Each compartment includes a bottom, three sidewalls, one partition wall, and four corners; each corner is adjacent to a folded gusset. Two opposing sidewalls are located on a first set of opposing sides of the bottom and a third sidewall and the partition wall are located on a second set of opposing dies of the bottom. Each folded gusset generally adheres to an adjacent sidewall. In at least one compartment, each opposing sidewall contains an extension portion that adheres to its adjacent opposing sidewall.

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.

Heat-sealable packaging comprising an inner container (1) formed from a first flat sheet (3) of cellulose material, an outer shell (2), linked to an upper end of the container (1) in the vicinity of its upper opening, formed from a second sheet (6) of cellulose material, flat and die-cut, comprising at least one outer perimeter surface (9) giving rise to a flat surface around the upper opening of the container (1) for closing the container by heat-sealing of a plastic sheet, and a plastic coating film covering at least the inner side of the container (1) and the outer perimeter surface (9) of the enclosure (2). The first sheet (3) and the second sheet (6) have different and independent perimeter dimensions and outlines.
