A method and apparatus are shown for securing a top for a cardboard carton where the carton has a bottom wall and integral sidewalls, an initially open interior and initially open top flaps with outwardly extending ears. The top flaps are folded to a carton closing position which closes off the initially open interior of the cardboard carton. The ears are also folded to a position in contact with the sidewalls of the carton. A set of punches are aligned with the folded ears of the carton and are actuated to force a first layer of cardboard from a respective top flap through an underlying region of the carton sidewall. A set of platens are located so as to underlie and reinforce the sidewalls of the carton as the punching operation takes place.

A package having a tray and a lockable lid is disclosed herein. The lid may be removed by applying a user input so that, for example, the package is child resistant. The lid is movable between a closed position and an open position. The package may include grinders to grind contents in the package.

A container can include a bottom panel, a sidewall structure attached to a bottom panel and forming a cavity for receiving an article. The sidewall structure can extend substantially orthogonally from the bottom panel. The container can include an at least partially round top panel. The top panel can be configured to latch to the sidewall structure to enclose the cavity. The top panel can be attached to the sidewall structure and/or the bottom panel. In certain embodiments, the top panel can be separate from the body.

A leak resistant bliss-type container comprising a first blank defining a bottom wall, opposed first side walls hingedly connected to longitudinal edges of the bottom wall and extending upwardly from the bottom wall, a vertical side flange hingedly connected to each of a pair of opposing lateral edges of the first side walls, and opposing bottom flanges hingedly connected to lateral edges of the bottom wall and extending upwardly in overlapping relation to the vertical side flanges. Second and third identical end blanks are provided, each end blank defining at least an end wall secured in overlapping relation to the vertical side flanges. A corner piece is defined by a web of material, each corner piece extending between a longitudinal edge of one of the vertical side flanges and a longitudinal edge of the bottom flange to define a leak resistant corner.

A repulpable leak resistant poultry box having a composite corrugated structure with a fluted medium formed with a top backing board secured to one side of the fluted medium and a bottom backing board secured to the other side of the fluted medium, all of which are impregnated with a hydrogenated triglyceride and the backing boards are coated with an acrylic styrene copolymer. In one embodiment, the box has a bottom panel and end panels integral to bottom panel positioned at opposite ends of the bottom panel and separated by a fold line from the bottom panel. The side panels assemblies are integral with the bottom panel with each side panel being separated by a fold line and have a plurality of reinforcing end panels extending from opposite ends of the side panel and integral foldable cover members connected to the side panels by a fold line. The reinforcing end panels are connected to an adjacent end panel integral with the bottom panel by a corner tab formed by an angled cut adjacent each bottom corner of the end panel. A plurality of insert members are secured to opposing side panels, an end panel and the reinforcing end panels in the interior of the corrugated box.

Another box embodiment has a bottom panel, side panels assemblies integral with the bottom panel and end panels integral with the bottom panel. The side panel assemblies comprise a side panel and a plurality of reinforcing end panels positioned adjacent each side panel. Each of the reinforcing panels in the side panel assembly defines a U-shaped cut out which is aligned with a cut out in the end panel to present a single uniformly configured cut out. The end panels define a tab in each bottom corner connected to a reinforcing end panel to seal a bottom corner of the box.

A container with a selectively openable cover to selectively allow access to one or more compartments is disclosed.

A container with a selectively openable cover to selectively allow access to one or more compartments is disclosed.

A packing box includes a bottom wall, first side walls, second side walls, and split walls. The bottom wall has a quadrangular shape having first side edges and second side edges. The first side walls respectively extend from the first side edges and have first opposite side edges that are respectively opposite to the first side edges. The second side walls respectively extend from the second side edges. The split walls respectively extend from the first opposite side edges of the first side walls and respectively have distal-end edges in directions in which the split walls extend. The distal-end edges of the split walls are configured to abut on each other such that the split walls form a ceiling wall that is opposite to the bottom wall. The split walls are respectively configured to be locked with the second side walls with a locking member.

Containers for column or cross stacking and related methods. In some embodiments, the top wall of the container may comprise a first plurality of vent openings and the bottom wall may comprise a second plurality of vent openings. One or more of the first plurality of vent openings is configured to be aligned with one or more of a plurality of vent openings formed in a bottom wall of an adjacent container positioned above the container in a column-stacked configuration, and one or more of the first plurality of vent openings is configured to be aligned with one or more of the plurality of vent openings of the adjacent container in a cross-stacked configuration. Various stacking tabs/openings may also be provided, which may be configured to facilitate either cross or column stacking, as desired.

Plastic corrugated reusable boxes are provided. Two opposite side panels 12 erected from a blank over fold lines 18 at bottom panel edges; said side panel 12 having flaps 20 attached on either side folded inward and interlocked with flaps 22 folded inward from the opposite side. Narrow flaps 32 attached to top edges of said side panels 12 folded inward and flat. The rest two opposite side panels 14 erected over fold lines at rest bottom panel edges; top flaps 30 attached to the rest two side panels 14 folded inward covering the top surface. Interlocked flaps 20 and 22 are standing underneath top flaps 30 and alongside two opposite side panels 14. Lock tabs 40 attached to top flaps 20 folded down and inserted into said lock slots embedded in narrow flaps 22 alongside side panels 12 top edges.
