A packing box including lattice members which are arranged in a stacked state into stages, a stage-partition plate which is arranged between the stages of the lattice members, two or more inner tubular-trunk frames which are provided in a stacking direction of the lattice members to surround one or more stages of the lattice members, an outer tubular-trunk frame surrounding an outside of two or more stages of the inner tubular-trunk frames, a bottom lid which is arranged under the outer tubular-trunk frame, and a top lid which is arranged on the outer tubular-trunk frame.

A partitioned container having a plurality of individual compartments formed from mated slotted interior panels. One or more exterior panels surround the mated interior panels to form the outside of the partitioned container. The interior panels may include folding tab sections and partitioning sections, and the panels may be mated with one another through a self-locking mechanism. The various panels may be folded about fold lines to permit the assembly to be folded into a substantially flat state.

The invention relates to a packaging device (1) for fitting out an external package (3) with a dividing element (2) and for filling a suchlike divided external package (3) with articles (4), as well as to a method for fitting out an external package (3) within a packaging device (1) with a dividing element (2) for the formation of individual divisions for articles (4) to be disposed in the external package (3). The packaging device (1) comprises a first supply module (70) for external packages (3) that are open on one side, a second supply module (60) for expanded and/or unfolded dividing elements (2), a placement device (6) for placing the expanded and/or unfolded dividing element (2) into the external package (3), at least one holding means (9) for holding and/or stabilizing the expanded and/or unfolded dividing element (2) inside the external package (3) prior to the articles (3) being placed therein, and an article feed module (11) for placing the articles (4) into an external package (3) that is divided by the dividing element (2).

An insulative insert for a shipping container includes at least one insulative pad and an inner layer. The at least one insulative pad is formed from fibers of a first material having a first strength. The first material includes at least one of cellulose and synthetic polymer. The inner layer is formed from a second material having a second strength that is greater than the first strength. The inner layer is joined to the at least one insulative pad to form the insulative insert. The insulative insert is configured to lie flat in an unfolded position and to form a cube shape in a folded position.
