A container can comprise a first compartment, a second compartment, and a lid flap. The container can be moved between a closed configuration and an open configuration. In the closed configuration, the first compartment and the second compartment are closed and the lid flap extends from the first compartment to the second compartment and restricts relative movement between the first compartment and the second compartment. In the open configuration, the first compartment can be separated from the second compartment and resealed with the lid flap.

A carton for holding at least one article includes a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the carton, the plurality of panels includes a top panel, a bottom panel, a front panel, a back panel, and at least one side panel, and a plurality of end flaps foldably connected to a respective panel of the plurality of panels, the plurality of end flaps includes at least one top end flap foldably connected to the top panel. The at least one top end flap is upwardly folded relative to the top panel to at least partially maintain a closed configuration of the carton in which the top panel is recessed below a portion of each of the front panel, the back panel, and the at least one side panel to form a recessed top portion for receiving a portion of a vertically adjacent carton.

A packaging system and method for an article includes a strap having an elongate shape and being made from a flexible material, and container having an opening. The container defines a space. In a packaged configuration, first and second ends of the strap are connected to one another to form a loop, the article is folded in a bundle and disposed within the space in the container, and the loop extends through a portion of the bundle and two slits formed in the container to secure the article into the container.

Blanks for forming clamshell containers and the resulting clamshell containers are described. The clamshell containers include a tray and a lid that are hingedly connected together. The tray is liquid tight, and typically includes gussets on each corner to prevent leakage. The lid and tray can be locked via at least one locking mechanism, optionally two different locking mechanisms. A first locking mechanism involves a front panel on the tray, with an extension portion that terminates in a hook or tab. The extension portion can fold over the front panel of the lid, and the hook or tabs slide into a slit(s) on the top of the lid. An optional second locking mechanism involves lid detents and tray detents. In some embodiments, in the locked position, the lid detents are underneath the tray detents and the tray detents retain the lid detents in place until a force is applied.

The present invention relates generally to a presentation box for a gift, a cake or a celebratory bakery item. More specifically, the invention relates to a presentation box comprised of a cake box having a repositionable lid, and a greeting card that is fixedly attached to the lid of the cake box. In differing embodiments of the presentation box, the lid of the cake box may have a transparent viewing window, as well as a speaker, a prerecorded message or song, and a plurality of LED lights that are activated and play once the greeting card and/or repositionable lid are opened.

A packaging comprising a container configured for disposal of a volume of flowable material. A carton configured for disposal of the container, the carton including a wall defining an opening. Visual indicia of the volume is provided. Packaging products, containers, handles, tooling, applicators and methods are disclosed.

Various embodiments provide a shipping and display box. In example embodiments, a shipping and display box includes a bottom panel, the bottom panel comprising a distal end wall at a distal end of the bottom panel and a proximal end tab at a proximal end of the bottom panel. In embodiments, the shipping and display box further includes a first side wall adjacent to and at an approximate right angle to the bottom panel at a first crease line. The shipping and display box further includes a top panel adjacent to and at an approximate right angle to the first side wall at a second crease line, the top panel comprising a proximal end wall at a proximal end of the top panel and a distal end tab at a distal end of the top panel. In embodiments, the shipping and display box further includes a second side wall adjacent to and at an approximate right angle to the top panel at a third crease line. The bottom panel, first side wall, second side wall, top panel, and proximal end wall each comprise one or more perforations configured to enable removal of sections of each of the bottom panel, first side wall, second side wall, top panel, and proximal end wall for display of contents of the shipping and display box.

The method includes a blank with sidewall panels, a first foot panel connected to a first one of the sidewall panels, a platform panel connected to the first foot panel, and a second foot panel connected to the platform panel, the method including first folding the sidewall panels and connecting respective side edges of the sidewall panels to form sidewalls of a package, second folding the platform panel to fit within a first end of the sidewalls so that the first foot panel and the second foot panel each at least partially press against a respective one of the sidewalls, and connecting the second foot panel to one of the sidewalls to stabilize the platform panel within the first end.

A box can include a body portion at least partially defining a cavity, the body portion defining a top body end and a bottom body end, the body portion including a plurality of panels, the top body end defining an opening to the cavity; a telescoping panel including an upper telescoping subpanel and a lower telescoping subpanel, the lower telescoping subpanel coupled to the body portion by a top hinge, the upper telescoping subpanel coupled to the lower telescoping subpanel by a telescoping hinge, the telescoping panel defining a locking tab disposed opposite from the top hinge, the lower telescoping subpanel extending into the cavity and positioned in facing engagement with a first panel of the plurality of panels, the upper telescoping subpanel extending across the cavity from the first panel to a second panel of the plurality of panels, the second panel positioned opposite from the first panel.

A panel interlocking arrangement for securing a pair of panels together comprising: first and second panels for placement in an overlapping position. The first and second panels are disposed at least in part in a face-contacting arrangement. A pair of locking elements are provided for locking engagement with each other to secure the first and second panels in the overlapping position. The pair of locking elements comprises a male locking element and female locking element. The female locking element is formed in the second panel and the male locking element is connected to the first panel.
