A carton for holding a plurality of articles in at least a first layer and a second layer. The carton can comprise a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the carton. The plurality of panels can comprise at least a bottom panel, a side panel, and a top panel. The carton further can include a divider for at least partially extending between the first layer and the second layer of the plurality of articles. The divider can at least partially define a first modular section of the carton and a second modular section of the carton. The first modular section can comprise the top panel, an upper portion of the side panel, and the divider. The second modular section can comprise the bottom panel and a lower portion of the side panel. The first modular section can be at least partially separable from the second modular section.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to an article carrier (90; 290; 490) for packaging one or more articles and to a blank (10; 110; 210; 310; 410) for forming the carrier. The carrier comprises a main panel (12; 112; 212, 222; 312, 322A, 322B; 412, 422A, 422B) including an article retention structure (RT; RT1, RT2) having an article receiving opening defined in part by at least a pair of opposing engaging tabs (40, 42; 140, 142; 240, 242, 246, 248; 340, 342, 346, 348; 440, 442, 446, 448) each having a length (L1, L2) greater than a half of the distance (L3) between their hinged connections (13A, 41; 213, 215, 241, 247, 249; 313, 315, 341, 347, 349; 413, 415, 441, 447, 449) to the main panel (12; 112; 212, 222; 312, 322A, 322B; 412, 422A, 422B).

A carrier for holding a plurality of containers includes a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the carrier, the plurality of panels including a plurality of side panels and at least one bottom panel foldably connected to a respective panel of the plurality of panels, locking features in the at least one bottom panel for at least partially maintaining a formed configuration of the carrier, and a plurality of system engagement features for at least partially receiving a portion of an outer container, each system engagement feature having a plurality of lines of weakening defining a plurality of separably connected sections in the at least one bottom panel.

A yogurt bin for holding a plurality of individual dairy cartons of yogurt includes a floor, two sidewalls, a first end wall and a second end wall. The two sidewalls are attached to the floor. At least one of the sidewalls has at least one finger slot therein. The finger slot is dimensioned to allow access to individual dairy cartons positioned near the finger slot but not to allow an individual dairy carton to pass through the finger slot. The first end wall is attached to the floor of the bin. The first end wall has a stop near the floor of the bin and a handle attached to the sidewalls positioned near the top of the bin. The second end wall is also attached to the two sidewalls.

A carton for packaging one or more articles, includes a top panel, first and second side panels, a bottom panel, and at least one display window for displaying at least one article. The at least one display window is struck at least in part from at least one of the side panels. The at least one display window is interrupted by a retention strap for engaging at least one article.

A top engaging carrier includes a main panel which has an aperture for receiving a portion of an article. The main panel includes an annular series of tabs formed around the aperture. The aperture defines a first edge of each of the tabs of the annular series. The tabs are hingedly connected to the main panel such that they yield out of the plane of the main panel when an article is received in the aperture. One of the tabs of the annular series is defined at least in part by a first cutline extending from the aperture into the main panel. The first cutline separating at least a portion of the one tab from an adjacent tab. The main panel also includes a second cutline. The second cutline defines a portion of a second edge of each of the one tab and the adjacent tab, wherein the second edge opposes the first edge.

A package comprising a carrier holding a plurality of articles. The carrier can comprise a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the carrier. The plurality of panels can comprise at least a top panel, a first bottom panel, a second bottom panel, and an end panel. The end panel can at least partially form a closed end of the carrier. The carrier further can comprise a top gusset foldably connected to each of the top panel and the end panel and a bottom gusset foldably connected to each of the first bottom panel and the end panel. The first bottom panel and the second bottom panel can be secured together so that the first bottom panel and the second bottom panel at least partially form a bottom wall opposite to the top panel.

A carton for holding a plurality of containers. The carton comprises a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the carton and a dispenser comprising a dispenser panel. The dispenser panel is at least partially defined by a tear line extending in at least one panel of the plurality of panels. The dispenser panel can be at least partially removable from the carton to create a dispenser opening. The carton also can comprise a handle for grasping and carrying the carton.
