An improved packaging box to display a product therein wherein the packaging box comprises a box portion, a bottom support, and a top support. In conjunction with the box portion, the bottom support and the top support hold a product positioned or centered within the box to form an enticing display for the product, without the need for placing representative indicia on the package to indicate its contents.

A packaging apparatus forming a box with an integral product holder from a single biodegradable material. The box comprises a top flap, bottom flap, and side panels extending longitudinally therebetween, all the panels foldably connected such that the box substantially encloses a heavy object. The integral holder is preferably foldably connected to a side panel of the box to be placed within the box, and is sized such that the integral holder cradles the heavy object to prevent movement during shipment. Tabs are foldably connected to the integral holder and are adjacent to side panels to secure the position of the integral holder during transportation and storage.

A tamper-evident coupling system includes a first base portion, a second base portion, a first coupling portion supported by and extending from the first base portion, and a second coupling portion supported by the second base portion and configured for cooperating with the first coupling portion. The first and the second coupling portions are configured for defining an arming condition in which the first and second coupling portions are stably engaged with each other. At least one of the first and the second coupling portions includes a removable portion that is separable from the tamper-evident coupling system upon a first disengagement of the first and second coupling portions following the arming condition to prevent a subsequent coupling between the first and second coupling portions and to show a tampering with the tamper-evident coupling system.

A package including a support for supporting items, a primary structure for selectively blocking access to the items, and a secondary structure for covering at least some of the primary structure. The support is movable from a first position, whereat the primary structure blocks access to the items, to a second position, whereat the items are accessible. The support and primary structures comprise latch features designed to engage when the support and primary structures are in the first position to prevent movement of the support in the opening direction, and to disengage on moving at least one latch feature in an unlatching direction to accommodate movement of the support from the first position. The secondary structure comprises a disengagement region that cooperates with the latch features when the support and primary structure are in the first position to disengage the latch features.

An item of packaging for a fluid filter has a first configuration and a second configuration. The first configuration is a packaging configuration in which the item of packaging is configured to package a fluid filter. The second configuration is a fluid tray configuration in which the item of packaging is configured to receive fluid. In addition, a method of manufacturing an item of packaging for a fluid filter comprises producing a two dimensional primary net for forming into a three dimensional item of packaging. The method further comprises providing a two dimensional secondary net for forming a three dimensional fluid tray. The two dimensional secondary net comprises separation lines and fold lines within the two dimensional primary net.

A shipping container comprising first and second side panels, and first and second end panels connecting the first and second side panels. A pair of major upper flaps are foldably connected to respective side panels, the major upper flaps each forming half of a top panel. A pair of minor upper flaps are foldably connected to respective end panels, each of the minor upper flaps including a central tuck flap panel and a pair of gusset panels foldably connected to and overlapping the central tuck flap panel to form a tuck flap structure. Each tuck flap structure extending along an outer side of a respective end panel and including an end portion extending into an access port formed on the respective end panel.

A blank includes a front panel; a wing portion coupled to the front panel by a wing hinge, the wing portion including an attachment panel disposed opposite from the wing hinge, the attachment panel configured to couple to the front panel to at least partially form a cavity between the front panel and the wing portion; a lower telescoping panel coupled to the front panel by a lower telescoping hinge; and an upper telescoping panel coupled to the lower telescoping panel by an upper telescoping hinge, the upper telescoping panel and the lower telescoping panel configured to fold into the cavity in a closed configuration to at least partially enclose the cavity.

Unitary blank for forming a container having a body portion with a plurality of fold lines and a cover portion. The body portion with a plurality of fold lines define a plurality of body wall portions, and each body wall portion has an upper edge. A first body wall portion includes a closure tab extending from the upper edge of the first body wall portion. The closure tab includes a closure tab flap portion and a closure tab base portion. The cover portion extends from the upper edge of a second body wall portion. The cover portion includes a cover portion flap score line extending along an upper edge of the cover portion and a release flap. A food container having a body portion and a cover portion is also provided.

A dual compartment box formed from a blank having a front panel, a first minor side panel, a rear panel, a second minor side panel, a second compartment front panel, a compartment minor side panel, and an inner tab. There is a first slide and a second slide extending from a first compartment top flap and a second compartment top flap, respectively, and they are movable between an upright semi-open position permitting product to dispense through the apertures and a downward closed position blocking the apertures. When the blank is folded, two compartments are formed, and an outer tab top flap and a minor side top flap overlap each other and the projecting portions of both the outer tab top flap and the minor side top flap form a center stop member that interacts with the slides to prevent them from becoming disengaged with the package.
