A blank for constructing a crush-tolerant container includes a first side panel, a bottom panel, a second side panel, and a top panel coupled together in series. At least one cutout and at least one bridge portion are defined along a first fold line between the top panel and the first side panel. The at least one bridge portion and the at least one cutout are configured to maintain the top panel in a plane spaced above a top edge of the first side panel when the container is formed and the top panel is not under a stacking load, and to allow the top panel to move downwardly such that at least a portion of the top panel is substantially co-planar with the top edge of the first side panel when the container is formed and the top panel is under the stacking load.

A tamper-evident container (1) including: a store (2) for housing at least one product, a closure system (7) placed at a passage opening (5) of the store (2) and configured for obstructing said passage opening to define a closed condition of the container (1). The store (2) has at least one glued portion at which a layer (40) made of heat-sensitive material is arranged, configured for irreversibly varying, following a heating of said layer (40), an optical and/or physical property of the same layer to provide evidence of an attempted tampering of the container (1).

A method of transforming a meal box into a tray. Many fast-food companies sell children's meals in decorative boxes. These boxes can have games or entertainment printed on the inside and outside of the box. The first step of the method is removing the contents. The next step is cutting, tearing, or otherwise opening the box along a seam between sidewalls of the box, such as along the glue line preexisting on the box.

A blank for forming a container is provided. The blank includes a top panel, a first and second side panels, and a bottom panel coupled together in series by a plurality of generally parallel fold lines, wherein the bottom panel includes a free side edge, the first side panel includes a first separation line, and the second side panel includes a second separation line. The blank also includes a first end flap and a second end flap extending from opposing side edges of the first side panel, and a third end flap and a fourth end flap extending from opposing side edges of the second side panel, wherein the second and fourth end flaps are configured for removal with the top panel after the container is formed and the first and second separation lines are separated.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a package, a carton, and a blank for forming the carton. An aspect of the invention provides a carton comprising a plurality of primary panels defining an interior of the carton. The plurality of panels comprises a top panel, a first side panel hinged to one of opposed side edges of the top panel, a second side panel hinged to the other of the side edges of the top panel, an upper end closure flap hinged to the top panel, a first side end closure flap hinged to the first side panel, a second side end closure flap hinged to the second side panel, and a foldable gusset folded into the interior of the carton. The gusset is hinged to the upper end closure flap.

A box has a lower container and a cover. The lower container has a rectangular bottom wall, two first side walls opposite to each other and two second side walls opposite to each other. The cover has a rectangular main wall opposite to the bottom wall, two third side walls opposite to each other and two fourth side walls opposite to each other. The third side walls are adjacent and outside an upper portion of the first side walls, respectively. The fourth side walls are adjacent and outside an upper portion of the second side walls, respectively. A respective first tab with a through-hole protrudes downwards from a lower edge of both third side walls. A respective second tab with a through-hole is cut in both first side walls and has a side attached to the respective first side wall. Tamper evident means pass through respective couples of first and second tabs of adjacent third and first walls.

A self-contained continuous PDQ package system is provided for shipment and display of products. The PDQ package includes four adjacent sections of preferably corrugated material each with an inner facing and an outer facing surface, with a cut out within the bottom flap panel. Within the cut out, there is a section where an adhesive is placed adhering the inner facing portion of body panel and the inner facing of a section of bottom of the outer panel flap and adjacent mid-section panel. The self-contained continuous PDQ package system also provides an erectable reinforced shoulder to facilitate display of products in a stack of cartons.

The present disclosure relates to a box having two chamfered corners. The box has a front and a back panel, two side panels and two corner panels. The box also has a top panel and a bottom panel. The top panel has two major flaps and two minor flaps with unique configuration which enables easy folding, closing and opening of the box.

A round trip container includes a container body having a receiving cavity and an opening. A proximal end of a closure flap is operably coupled with the container body and the closure flap is configured to extend over the opening. A first adhesive receiving area is located on one of the closure flap and the container body and receives adhesive to adhere the closure flap to the container body when the container is placed in a closed “outbound” configuration. An adhesive portion is located on one of the closure flap and the container body. A removable covering is placed over the second adhesive portion. After the package has been received and opened, and any desired contents inserted into the receiving cavity, the covering can be removed and the second adhesive adheres the closure flap to the container body placing the container in a closed “return” configuration.

A consumer product package with a front panel having an upper portion with a top surface folded over a top surface of a lower portion of the front panel. A rear panel is parallel to the front panel. A top panel extends between the front panel and the rear panel. A bottom panel extends between the front panel and the rear panel. A first side panel extends between the front panel and the rear panel transverse to the top panel and the bottom panel. A second side panel extends between the front panel and the rear panel transverse to the top panel and the bottom panel. The front panel, the rear panel, the top panel, the bottom panel, the first side panel and the second side panel form a cavity configured to receive a consumer product. An edge of the upper portion of the front panel extends into the cavity.
