A blank made of a polymeric material is provided and used to form at least a portion of a container. The blank is folded to establish a base and a side wall included in the container.

A tearable leak-resistant container is provided with creases, partial perforation along selected creases, adhesion of flaps, and a collapsed position to permit rapid reconfiguration to an expanded position. The expanded position of the container enables enhanced filling with food ingredients and transportation without spillage. The adhered flaps provide enhanced leak resistance, and the perforated creases permit disassembly of the container to improve access to the food contained within.

A package can include a handle structure defining a finger pocket between a barrier and a handle. The barrier can be between an interior space of the package and the handle. A blank can be configured to form such a package, for example.

A blank of sheet material for forming a polygonal container, the blank including, a bottom panel, two opposing end panels, each end panel extending from an end edge of the bottom panel, two opposing outer side panels, each outer side panel extending from a side edge of the bottom panel, and an inner side panel extending from each top edge of one outer side panel of the two outer side panels and an outer side panel extending from each top edge of the one of the inner side panels, wherein each inner side panel includes a central portion, a corner portion extending from each side of the central portion, and an inner end portion extending from a side of each of the corner portions.

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).

The invention relates to a food package comprising a plurality of food products A food package includes packaging box having a body and a cover. The body has a bottom wall and first and second mutually opposed side walls, therewith defining an inner space in the body for granular food products. The inner space of the body is exposed at a top side for provision and removal of food products. The cover has a cover wall which at least covers said exposed inner space of the body. The body is provided with at least one strip extending above said inner space. The strip is interconnected to a corresponding one of the first and second side walls along an edge of the body, touches the cover wall—in at least a portion of the strip and at least substantially—and is configured to be elastically rotatable along the said edge of the body.

A container formed from a blank and a method for constructing the container are described. The container includes a bottom wall, two end walls, each end wall including at least an end panel extending from an end edge of the bottom wall, and two side walls. The container further includes an upper reinforcing assembly at least partially extending from each end panel, and a side reinforcing assembly extending from opposing side edges of each end panel.
