A flat cardboard blank forms tubular envelope type packaging for a pack of jars. The blank extends substantially along a plane formed by a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis perpendicular to the longitudinal axis, where the plane further defines a packaging axis substantially perpendicular to the plane. The blank includes: tubular-blank panels including at least one top panel, two lateral panels, a base panel, a unit for securely attaching for closing the expanded blank on itself; cut lines, slot lines and score lines between the tubular-blank panels for folding the tubular-blank panels, expanding the blank and shaping the packaging of the pack; and a spacing/bracing part connected to the tubular-blank panels by cut lines, detachable from the tubular-blank panels when the packaging of the pack is shaped for being arranged and expanded into the bracing spacer and forming bracing walls of the braced jars on the lateral walls.

A carton for packaging one or more articles, the carton including a first side panel (22) and a first base panel (24) hingedly connected by a fold line (27). The carton includes at least one article retention structure (L) for engaging a lower portion of an article (A). The at least one article retention structure including at least a first tab (42) struck from, and hingedly connected to, the first side panel and/or the first base panel. The at least a first tab includes an upper portion (42b), a lower portion (42a) and a central portion (42c). The central portion hingedly interconnects the upper and lower portions and is defined by a pair of fold lines (41a, 43a). The fold lines of the pair are divergently arranged with respect to each other.

A carrier includes first and second opposed side walls (16, 20), a bottom wall (12, 24) and a top wall (18). The carrier has an article retention device (L1, L2, L3, L4, L5, L6) for retaining a portion of an article (C) within the carrier. The article retention device is formed in part from the bottom wall and in part from the first side wall. The article retention device includes an anchor tab (52) for engaging with an article and at least one protection flap (56, 58) for protecting the article. The anchor tab and the protection flap define an opening in the carrier through which a portion of the article protrudes.
