A complementary paper tube adapted to fill a remaining space on a cargo pallet includes sidewall portions, a straight auxiliary tearing line and circular auxiliary tearing lines. The side wall portions are disposed adjacently to each other. The straight auxiliary tearing line surrounds the sidewall portions. The circular auxiliary tearing lines are disposed on the sidewall portions and respectively connected to the straight auxiliary tearing line. A portion of the area surrounded by the circular auxiliary lines is adapted to be torn away, so as to form circular openings. The complementary paper tube is adapted to be torn into an upper tube and a lower tube. In addition, a flat plate adapted to form the complementary paper tube is also mentioned.

A drum for storage and transportation of a coil, the drum comprises a base having a bottom part configured to rest on a planar horizontal surface. A hollow core having a polygonal cross-sectional shape extends from the top side of the base. A cover also extends from the top side of the base and has an inner wall in the form of a circular cylinder. The cover is spaced from the core, forming an annular space for receiving a coil of cable, tubing or the like. The core is composed of a plurality of substantially planar parts hinged to one another so that the core can be collapsed and stored or shipped in a substantially flat condition and expanded to its polygonal shape for connection to the base. The cover is composed of two or more arc-shaped parts, which are capable of being nested for storage and shipment.

Cargo assemblages including a pallet, a load of packages arranged in one or more layers. and a support layer, in which the support layer is sized and positioned within the cargo assemblage to support and/or stabilize the cargo, thereby providing improved pallet efficiency, improved shipping efficiency, and/or improved stability.

Package includes stacks of empty containers matingly stacked, panels each having a main surface with peripheral walls, and support members. A first level includes a first panel, one or more stacks of egg containers laid horizontally on the main surface of the first panels within the peripheral walls, and said support members extending from the first panel to a top of the first level. A second level includes a second panel laid on the first level in contact with the support members, one or more stacks of containers laid horizontally on a surface of the second panel within the peripheral walls, and support members extending from the second panel to a top of the second level. A panel is disposed on an uppermost level and having its peripheral walls covering a top of the sides of the uppermost level and in contact with the support members of the uppermost level.

A packaging piece is disclosed. The packaging piece includes a first side that includes a first module frame interlocking structure configured to snap fit to a drainage hole of a module frame in a first orientation and to extend toward a glass surface of a module in a second orientation. The packaging piece also includes a second side that includes: a second module frame interlocking structure configured to extend toward the glass surface of the module in the first orientation and to snap fit to the drainage hole of the module frame in the second orientation.

Systems and methods for providing a thermoplastic product that includes packaging therefore. Implementation of the present invention takes place in association with packaging of one or more ingredients of a thermoplastic product, wherein the packaging is used to contain the ingredients during storage and/or transportation, and wherein at least a portion of the packaging itself is an ingredient for inclusion into the thermoplastic product. In some implementations, the entire packaging is incorporated into the thermoplastic product for utilization thereof.

A door packing assembly can include a pallet having a plurality of frames positioned thereon. The plurality of frames define an interior area, and a plurality of doors are positioned onto the pallet within the interior area defined by the plurality of frames. In further instances, a door container component can be positioned onto the pallet and the plurality of doors can be positioned within the door container component. In this way, the door container component can have a perimeter surrounded by at least some of the plurality of frames.

Palletized units of fan-folded stock material include a pallet having a deck configured to support the fan-folded stock material, and a stack of the stock material supportively positioned on the deck. The stock material includes an elongated web of sheet material configuration defined by folds in the web about fold lines that extend in a transverse direction of the web that segment the web into a plurality of sheet sections, with adjacent sheet sections folded onto one another.
