A self-sealing container is formed from a blank comprising panels and end flaps connected along fold lines with the panels and the end flaps being foldable along the fold lines to form the container. The container includes a securing feature that seals the container in a closed position, with the securing feature providing a visual indication of opening if the container is opened from the closed position. After the container is opened, the securing feature provides a closure feature that allows the container to be closed.

The invention provides a packing box and a method of using the same, comprising a base surface, side surfaces and receiving compartments; wherein the side surfaces and the base surface form first set of folding marks used to fold along the first folding marks and form a space for the packing box; a plurality of holes are opened on the base surface, and the receiving compartments are fixed on the base surface, with the holes used as openings thereof; each receiving compartment is surrounded by a plurality of wall surfaces, the wall surfaces unparallel to the base surface when the receiving compartments are expanded are defined as unparallel wall surfaces, the other wall surfaces are parallel wall surfaces, and a plurality of second folding marks are formed on the unparallel wall surfaces to be used to fold and expand the corresponding wall surfaces; wherein, when the unparallel wall surfaces are folded, the internal cavities of the receiving compartments disappear and the receiving compartments are retracted, and when the unparallel wall surfaces are expanded, the receiving compartments are expanded. The proposal of the invention has advantages that the space occupied by the packing box can be reduced during transportation and storage, the packing box can be formed conveniently and quickly, and the final packing box structure is stable and reliable.

A liquid retaining folded laminar container made from a cold or heat pre-cut paper or plastic sheet. The laminar container comprises engraved lines that enable folding to form a container. The laminar container has a circular base having a double concentric cone. The laminar container's sides close on itself to create a self-bearing square, or geometric, outline container with lids. The container is manually formed from the an engraved laminar sheet. The containers can be stored and transported flat.

A blank for a package configured to retain an article therein can be configured to be wrapped around the article to form a circumferential case around the article and have a longitudinal length longer than the article. The blank can be configured to define the circumferential case to include one or more inward protrusions at or near one or more ends of the circumferential case that is configured to extend into the circumferential case above and/or below the article to retain the article longitudinally.

A container (1) for consumer goods, the container comprises an outer sleeve (20) and inner box (10) disposed within the outer sleeve (20), and configured to slide within the outer sleeve (20) between: a first position, in which the interior of the inner box (10) cannot be accessed by a user; and a second position, in which the interior of the inner box (10) can be accessed by a user. The container (1) having a locking mechanism for preventing the inner box (10) from sliding from the first position to the second position, when the inner box (10) is in the first position in the outer sleeve (20).

A box blank useful for forming a container includes a first layer including paperboard, a second layer including a paper layer and a foil layer, and an adhesive layer adhering the first layer to the second layer. The foil layer is between the paperboard and the paper layer.

A material storage and transport system is disclosed. The material storage and transport system can include a material storage tray forming a storage volume defined by a bottom and walls extending up from the bottom along a perimeter of the bottom. The material storage and transport system can also include a releasable strap adapted to extend across the bottom when in a securing configuration and a sample carrier, including at least one sample secured to a sample support substrate by a molded sheet. The material storage and transport system can include a hinged lid that is integrally connected to a wall of the material storage tray, and configured to convert between a folded-in position, an opened position, and a closed position.

Provided is a packaging cooler box for delivery, comprising a bottom portion to form a lower surface upon conversion into a box mode, a plurality of sidewall portions configured to connect with the bottom portion, a lid portion configured to connect with one of the sidewall portions, and to face said bottom portion upon conversion into the box mode, a crease portion formed along the edge of the bottom portion so that the sidewall portions can stand upright, joint portions configured to join said sidewall portions, to be folded to face itself and to be in close contact with the sidewall portions, upon conversion into the box mode, and easy adhesive portions provided in said joint portions and sidewall portions to maintain the box shape upon conversion into the box mode from a single plane consisting of said bottom portion, sidewall portions, said lid portion and joint portions.

A self-sealing container is formed from a blank comprising panels and end flaps connected along fold lines with the panels and the end flaps being foldable along the fold lines to form the container. The container includes a securing feature that seals the container in a closed position, with the securing feature providing a visual indication of opening if the container is opened from the closed position. After the container is opened, the securing feature provides a closure feature that allows the container to be closed.

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.
