Article carrier and blank therfor
Aspects of the disclosure relate to a package, an article carrier for packaging a plurality of articles and to a blank for forming the article carrier. The article carrier may package at least one article having a recess. The article carrier comprises a plurality of panels for forming a tubular structure for surrounding at least one article. The article carrier comprises an article retention device for engaging a recess of one of said at least one article. The article retention device may inhibit dislodgement of the article from at least one of opposite open ends of the tubular structure in a setup carrier. The tubular structure defines a tubular axis. The article retention device comprises a flap hingedly connected to a first one of the plurality of panels along a first fold line. The first fold line extends at an acute angle with respect to the tubular axis. The acute angle may be no more than 50 degrees.

Container with a movable separation panel
A container movable between a flat configuration and a box configuration is disclosed. The container comprises a first side panel hingedly coupled to a first side portion, a second side panel hingedly coupled to a second side portion, a separation panel, and a bottom panel. The separation panel is hingedly coupled to the first side portion and to the second side portion. When the container is in the box configuration, the bottom panel and the separation panel face each other, and the first side panel and the second side panel face each other. The container is further movable between the box configuration and a formed configuration. When the container is in the formed configuration, the first side portion and the first side panel face each other, the second side portion and the second side panel face each other, and the separation panel and the bottom panel are substantially orthogonal.
