A beverage crate includes a base and a plurality of walls extending upward from the base. The base together with the plurality of walls define a container interior for receiving beverage containers. By reconfiguring the crate, the storage volume of the container interior is selectively adjustable to accommodate different size beverage containers. Thus, the same crate could be used for different size beverage containers.

A box can include a container portion, the container portion defining a top end and a bottom end, the container portion defining a cavity, the container portion including a main panel; and a side panel including a first side subpanel and a second side subpanel, the first side subpanel hingedly coupled to the main panel; and a dividing portion disposed within the cavity, the dividing portion defining a plurality of cells within the cavity, the dividing portion including a first dividing wing coupled to the first side subpanel; and a second dividing wing coupled to the second side subpanel.

A beverage crate includes a base having opposed end edges and opposed side edges. A pair of end walls extending upward from the end edges of the base. A pair of side walls extend upward from the side edges of the base. Each of the side walls includes an upper band portion connected to the base by inwardly-offset columns. The upper band portions each include at least one upper peak protruding upwardly and at least one complementary recess aligned below the at least one upper peak. The upper band portions each include at least one lower peak protruding downwardly and at least one complementary recess aligned above the at least one lower peak.

A tray for storing and transporting bottles includes a plurality of base walls each for supporting a bottle thereon. A plurality of interior columns extend upwardly between the base walls. Longitudinal dividers connect the interior columns. Lateral dividers connect the interior columns to side columns along side edges of the tray. At least one band extends along the side edges of the tray connecting the side columns.

The invention relates to a container for cut flowers, the container being nestable, the container comprising a container body which at an upper region is provided with a channel-shaped sleeve holder for holding a protective sleeve arranged to protect cut flowers. The channel-shaped sleeve holder is open at its top. Further, the channel-shaped sleeve holder has an outer channel wall. The container further comprises at least one anti-interlocking flange extending downwardly from the channel-shaped sleeve holder. The anti-interlocking flange, or at least a bottom section of the anti-interlocking flange, is staggered with respect to the outer channel wall, or at least a top section of the outer channel wall.

A box can include a container portion, the container portion defining a top end and a bottom end, the container portion defining a cavity, the container portion including a main panel; and a side panel including a first side subpanel and a second side subpanel, the first side subpanel hingedly coupled to the main panel; and a dividing portion disposed within the cavity, the dividing portion defining a plurality of cells within the cavity, the dividing portion including a first dividing wing coupled to the first side subpanel; and a second dividing wing coupled to the second side subpanel.

A crate includes a base and a pair of end walls that extend upward from the base. A pair of side walls extend upward from the base between the pair of ends walls. A band extends along the pair of end walls and the pair of side walls. The band includes at least one first partial geometric shape formed in the band adjacent a top edge of the band aligned with at least one second partial geometric shape located adjacent a bottom edge of the band.

A nestable beverage crate includes a base, side walls and end walls. Each side wall includes a plurality of side columns connecting a side upper band to the base. Each end wall includes a plurality of end columns connected an end upper band to the base. The side upper band and the end upper bands each have a plurality of peaks and valleys and are asymmetric, such that adjacent crates will have peaks aligned with valleys and vice-versa. For purposes of preventing shingling, the effective vertical width of the side upper bands and the end upper bands of these two adjacent side walls is the full distance between the upper edge of the peak and the lower edge of the valley, but the nesting height of the crate is only the vertical width of the upper bands.

The invention relates to a plastic container with a base and side walls standing on the base, wherein a receiving region of the container is defined by the base and the side walls, wherein the base, on its side facing away from the receiving region, forms a plane, wherein the plane carries an inner region, a bearing rim surrounding the inner region, and first ribs protruding from the plane, wherein the bearing rim has a bearing face for the container and the bearing face is elevated in the direction perpendicular to the plane compared to the inner region, wherein each of the first ribs extends in the direction of the bearing rim starting from the inner region, wherein, with respect to each of the first ribs, the end face of the first rib pointing in the direction of extent leads tangentially into the plane.

A tray for storing and transporting bottles includes a plurality of base walls each for supporting a bottle thereon. A plurality of interior columns extend upwardly between the base walls. Longitudinal dividers connect the interior columns. Lateral dividers connect the interior columns to side columns along side edges of the tray. At least one band extends along the side edges of the tray connecting the side columns.
