Separable modular container and methods of manufacturing the same are herein disclosed. The separable modular container generally includes a plurality of packages formed from a single die-cut panel. The packages formed from the single die-cut panel are detachable from one another.

A reinforced box for containing a plurality of items to be packaged includes a bottom wall and a top wall, a pair of first side walls and a pair of second side walls. The bottom wall, the top wall and the pair of first side walls are formed from a one-piece elongate element, which extends along a longitudinal axis and is formed with transverse fold lines. The pair of second side walls consists of two separate cardboard panels, and each of the walls is formed with longitudinal creasing lines defining pairs of first and second folded side wings. The pair of second side walls is glued to the bottom wall using a respective second side wing overlapping the bottom wall to reinforce its longitudinal edges. A method of making a box with a reinforced structure is also disclosed.

A packaging carton for packaging one or more articles and to blanks (100, 200, 1000) for forming the packaging carton. The carton and blanks comprise a plurality of panels for forming the carton including a top panel (108), a bottom panel (112), a first side panel (110), and a pair of partial side panels (106, 114). Each of the bottom panel, the first side panel, and the first partial side panel has a first and a second end flap hingedly connected thereto in opposition from each other, and the partial side panels adhere together to form a complete second side panel to enclose an interior volume for containing articles. The end flaps of the blank (100, 200, 1000) define an edge shape which is configured to be nested with the edge of an identical blank.

A carton includes panels forming a tubular structure. The panels include a first top panel (12), a second top panel (20), a first side panel (14), a second side panel (18) and a base panel (16). The first top panel is secured to an inner surface of the second top panel. The first top panel extends from the first side panel of the carton and partially across the tubular structure, wherein at least a portion of the second top panel extends from the second side panel of the carton and across the tubular structure to the first side panel. The second top panel includes a handle strap (S2) for carrying the carton while the first top panel includes a protruding portion (60, 62) defining at least in part a handle reinforcing member (S1) for reinforcing the handle strap.

A paper lid for a container includes a body portion, a top lid portion having an outer periphery surrounded by the body portion, and an engaging portion in the body portion that includes a tapered portion tapering in the same direction as the container taper and engages with the container curl portion. The body portion has a first end portion for mounting on the container and an opposite second end portion. The outer periphery is bent toward the first end portion, and has a bent portion bonded to the body portion. A part other than the outer periphery is between the engaging portion and the second end portion. An inner diameter of a tip of the tapered portion is smaller than an outer diameter of the container curl portion. Where the lid closes the container opening, the container curl portion contacts an inner part of the tapered portion.

Example aspects of a main body blank for a storage box, a tray blank for a storage box, and a storage box blank are disclosed. The main body blank can comprise a planar sidewall assembly comprising a plurality of sidewalls, each of the sidewalls defining a top edge and a bottom edge opposite the top edge; and a first fastener panel formed monolithically with the sidewall assembly and hingedly connected to the bottom edge of a first one of the sidewalls by a first fastener bend line, the first fastener panel coplanar with the sidewall assembly.

A method for manufacturing a paperboard bottle and spiral-wound paperboard bottle. The bottle has a tubular body portion, a shoulder and neck portion having a circular cross-section narrowing from the body portion to a circular mouth. The paperboard bottle is a liquid packaging board having thermoplastic polymer coating on both sides. The method includes cutting a planar elongated blank from a packaging board sheet. Protecting exposed cut raw edge of the first longitudinal edge against absorption of liquid. Securing the first end of the blank to a rotatable mandrel having a rotation axis (x) and an outer shape corresponding to the shape of the bottle. Rotating the mandrel to wind the blank spirally onto the mandrel, so that the longitudinal edges overlap applying heat-sealing energy and pressure, onto the overlapping longitudinal edges to form a bottle with hermetically sealed spiral seam and removing the mandrel from inside the bottle.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a nestable blank for forming a basket-style carrier. The blank comprises a plurality of panels for forming walls of the carrier, which panels include a first side panel, a second side panel and a bottom panel. The first side panel is hinged to the bottom panel and the bottom panel is asymmetrical. The bottom panel has first and second opposed end edges, and the first end edge is offset from a first end edge of the adjacent first side panel by a first distance. The second end edge of the bottom panel is offset from a second end edge of the adjacent first side panel by a second distance, and the first distance is greater than the second distance. The bottom panel also comprises a beveled corner.

Separable modular container and methods of manufacturing the same are herein disclosed. The separable modular container generally includes a plurality of packages formed from a single die-cut panel. The packages formed from the single die-cut panel are detachable from one another.

A blank (1)0 for forming an article carrier (90) has a main panel (12) which includes at least one article retention structure R1 having an aperture A1 defined in the main panel and one or more tabs formed about a periphery of the aperture in the main panel. The one or more tabs are connected to the main panel such that the tabs yield out of the plane of the main panel when an article is received in the aperture to bear against the article. The main panel includes a paperboard substrate and at least one polymeric layer.
