A carrier for holding at least one container includes a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior space of the carrier and including a front panel, a back panel, at least one side panel, a first bottom panel, a second bottom panel, and at least one central panel. At least one divider flap extends from the at least one central panel to at least one of the front panel and the back panel. The first bottom panel includes at least one male locking feature and the second bottom panel includes at least one female locking feature for receiving the at least one male locking feature. The at least one male locking feature engages the at least one divider flap to lock the at least one divider flap in a generally perpendicular position relative to the central panel.

A bottle carrier made of foldable flat material having a handle comprising two overlapping outer handle walls and two inner handle walls between the outer handle walls, front walls, perpendicular to the handle and two front wall sections on different sides of the handle, connecting straps, connected with an inner edge of a front wall section via a front folding line, folded around front folding lines and connected with the handle, longitudinal walls, parallel to the handle and connected with the outer edges of two front wall sections via side folding lines, a bottom wall, connected with lower edges of longitudinal walls via bottom folding lines, separating webs, connected with lower edge areas of the outer handle walls via inner web folding lines, folded around the inner web folding lines out of the lower edge areas, an insert is arranged between the two outer handle walls.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a carton for packaging one or more articles, a blank for forming the carton and a method of packaging articles. The carton may have at least one display window for presentation of an article therein. The carton comprises a plurality of panels forming walls of a tubular structure including a top wall, a first side wall, a base wall, and a second side wall. The carton comprises a bottom opening defined, at least, in the bottom wall. The bottom opening is vertically aligned with the at least one article when the at least one article is received in the carton such that the at least one article is accessible through the bottom opening to be raised and lowered with respect to the bottom wall.

A carrier for holding a plurality of containers is disclosed. The carrier includes a plurality of panels that extends at least partially around an interior of the carrier. The plurality of panels includes at least one bottom panel, at least one top panel, a front panel, a back panel, at least one side panel, and at least one central panel that divides the interior of the carrier into a front portion and a back portion. At least one divider flap is foldably connected to the at least one central panel and extends to one of the front panel and the back panel to divide one of the front portion and the back portion into at least two container-receiving spaces. The at least one top panel is foldably connected to at least one of the front panel and the back panel and includes at least one opening for receiving a container of the plurality of containers. The at least one top panel comprises a locking tab and the at least one central panel comprises a locking opening for receiving the locking tab.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to an article carrier for packaging a plurality of articles, a blank for forming the article carrier. The article carrier comprises a plurality of primary panels for forming a tubular structure and defining an interior thereof. The plurality of primary panels includes a pair of opposed end panels. The article carrier further comprises a partition structure for dividing the interior into two or more article-receiving cells. A primary partition panel is hingedly connected to one of the pair of end panels along a first fold line, the primary partition panel comprises the partition structure. The partition structure comprises at least one lateral partition flap and a glue flap. The at least one lateral partition flap and the glue flap are coupled together by a distal end joint. The distal end joint is adjoined by a tab interrupting the first fold line. The tab protrudes from the end panel into the primary partition panel to be in close proximity or contact with the distal end joint.
