A carton for containing a plurality of articles. The carton can comprise a plurality of panels that extends at least partially around an interior of the carton. The plurality of panels can comprise a bottom panel, a top panel, and a side panel. At least two end flaps are respectively foldably attached to respective panels of the plurality of panels. The at least two end flaps can at least partially form a closed end of the carton, and the at least two end flaps can comprise a first end flap foldably connected to at least one panel of the plurality of panels at a first fold line and a second end flap foldably connected to the at least one panel at a second fold line. The second fold line is oblique relative to the first fold line.

The package includes sidewall panels, at least one first platform panel configured to support at least one first consumer product within the package, at least one foot panel that is at least partially positioned under the at least one first platform panel to support at least one portion of the at least one first platform panel, and a tear-off section defined by at least a lower end of the package.

A shoebox includes a first main panel; a second main panel opposite the first main panel; a first connecting panel extending from the first main panel, the first connecting panel defining a locking slot; a second connecting panel extending between the first main panel and the second main panel opposite the first connecting panel; an overlapping panel extending from the second connecting panel and at least partially overlapping the first connecting panel; and a locking tab extending from the overlapping panel, the locking tab in locking engagement with the locking slot in a closed and locked configuration of the shoebox.

A dual-action carton separation system helps keep a carton secure while in storage or transit. When it is to be opened a lock tab is removed that then allows a top panel to be pulled back along perforations. The lock tab could have a release tab attached to it that allows for it to be better pulled or otherwise removed from the carton.

A carton for holding and dispensing at least one article includes a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the carton and including a front panel, a back panel, and at least one side panel, a plurality of end flaps foldably connected to respective panels of the plurality of panels for forming at least one closed end of the carton, and a dispenser for accessing the interior of the carton, the dispenser including a dispenser opening in the top panel, a first article engaging member attached to the top panel, and a second article engaging member attached to the top panel, the first article engaging member and the second article engaging member arranged in at least partial overlapping relation to define a dispenser path from the interior of the carton to an exterior environment around the carton, at least one of the first article engaging member and the second article engaging member comprises a composite material.

A container includes a plurality of panels connected together to enclose an interior space. At least one tear away portion is defined in the plurality of panels. An insert is adhered to the at least one tear away portion for removal from the plurality of panels together with the at least one tear away portion to provide access to the interior space. The insert can extend from a first end of the interior space to an opposite end of the interior space as a load bearing member between two opposed panels of the plurality of panels.

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.

An apparatus for housing botanicals during transport is disclosed. The apparatus may be configured to convert to a display assembly for the botanicals. The apparatus may include: a covering component having a primary opening on one end and a permeable structure on a second end; a sleeve component having a support structure on one end and a receiving opening on a second end, the sleeve component being configured to be partially inserted into the covering component; a holding component having a secondary opening at one end and a water-tight chamber wall at the other end, the holding component being configured to be partially inserted into the sleeve component, such that the secondary opening is positioned within the sleeve component; in order facilitate converting the apparatus into a display assembly, the covering component is removed from the sleeve component and the holding component is inserted into the covering component.

Provided is a packaging container including a plurality of sidewall panels. The plurality of sidewall panels may include at least a first sidewall panel and a second sidewall panel connected to the first sidewall panel along a predefined corner fold line. The packaging container may further include a push-in feature located on the predefined corner fold line. The push-in feature may be movable between a first configuration and a second configuration. A tear-away piece may be located on at least one sidewall panel of the plurality of sidewall panels. The packaging container may include a top wall defined by a plurality of top panels. In an example, the packaging container includes a bottom wall defined by a plurality of bottom panels. In an example, the packaging container includes an insert. The packaging container may house a potted plant.

The present invention is a package having strengthened, reinforced lines of weakness. More particularly, the package, in its fully formed configuration, provides for a self-reinforced package and strengthened, reinforced lines of weakness for stacking and transport wherein the package is resistant to fracture at its lines of weakness due to jostling of its contents against the inside of the package and at its lines of weakness.
