The present subject matter is directed towards a packaging container comprising at least one sheet of a packaging material defining a closed cross-section and open at an operative top end and an operative bottom end thereof. At least two flaps are provided at the operative top end and the operative bottom end of the at least one sheet, wherein the at least two flaps are sealable to each other to define an interior space for containing edible items therein. An auxiliary lid is provided on one of the operative top end and the operative bottom end, wherein the auxiliary lid is configured to snugly fit on one of the operative top end and the operative bottom end subsequent to the unsealing of the at least two flaps, thereby preventing ingress of air and other foreign matter into the interior space.

A container that has a paper, paperboard, or cardboard base receptacle and a plastic lid joined to the base receptacle by selectively releasable connection elements is provided. The base receptacle has a bottom wall and a lateral wall having an upper edge. The plastic lid has a lower frame resting on the upper edge and delimiting an opening for accessing an inside of the container, and an upper element configured to selectively close/open the opening. The selectively releasable connection elements are accessible only from the inside of the container.

Packaging with a locking mechanism is provided, such as for finished goods packaging, such that a lid and base box may be secured together in a closed configuration. An interlocking ripcord mechanical lock may include a slot and tab style ripcord that is integrated into the packaging. As an example, packaging using corrugated material may utilize the corrugated material thickness to lock the tab record inside an opening such as a slot, such that the base box is retained and coupled to the lid, thereby preventing the base box from sliding out from the lid if a user except packaging by the lid. Once the ripcord is removed, is removed, the mechanical lock is thereby released from the base and lid, allowing the customer to open the packaging.

Implementations herein may involve a packaging system including a first box part including a plurality of lid walls, where a first lid wall comprises an aperture and a latch slidably disposed within the aperture. The packaging system may also include a second box part having a plurality of tray walls, where a first tray wall comprises a channel sized to slidably receive the latch. The channel may include an assembly channel segment and a locking channel segment, where the assembly channel segment intersects an edge of the first tray wall. Further, the second box part may be configured to fit within the first box part such that a) the assembly channel segment is aligned with the latch when the latch is in a first position within the aperture, and b) the latch is slidable within the locking channel segment to a second position.

A reclosable carton has a releasable closure, with one portion of the closure adhered to a wall of the carton body, and a mating portion of the closure adhered to a flange of a lid of the carton, such that the closure portions overlap with the lid closed. Each closure portion has an exposed surface defining a series of tapered ridges, each formed as a row of tapered scallops, spaced apart in a box lid closing direction, such that the ridges of one closure portion sequentially engage the ridges of the other closure portion as the lid is closed, to hold the lid in its closed position. The closure is subsequently released by flexure of the carton body or lid to separate the engaged ridges.

A fastener for an image display assembly comprising a polygonal planar body having a ventral surface with at least one fastening member extending from the ventral surface. The fastening member comprises a fastening member body and at least one cantilever tab extending from the fastening member body. Each cantilever tab comprises a fastener retainer facing the ventral surface. Also provided is an image display assembly comprising retaining features; an assembled image display comprising said image display assembly and said fastener; a kit comprising said image display assembly and said fastener; a method of creating an image display; and use of said image display assembly and said fastener to create an image display.

A reclosable container includes a container body made of a cellulosic material and at least one closing formation including a first closure element and a second closure element engageable with each other to keep the container in a closed configuration and disengageable from each other to open the container, wherein at least one of the first closure element and second closure element is made of a hydrosoluble thermoplastic material.

A tamper-evident structure for securing a lid to a container of a carton for holding a food product includes a plurality of panels having a top panel and at least one side panel, and at least one panel of the plurality of panels is for being attached to at least one of the lid and the container of the carton. At least one indicating feature provides indication that the lid has been at least partially removed from the container.
