An insert for a flow wrapped packaging assembly has a bottom wall (18) and a peripheral wall (20) extending from said bottom wall to define an interior volume (21) for containing product (14). The insert has a tongue (20) at a top end of the peripheral wall which is movable between a closed position in which it at least partially closes the interior volume at the top end of the insert and an open position in which it does not impede access to the interior volume. The insert (12) can be top-filled when upright with the tongue open and then moved to a horizontal orientation for flow wrapping using a HFFS process with the tongue closed to prevent the contents spilling out. The insert is particularly suitable for enabling a plurality of disc-shape products, such as beverage pads, to be flow wrapped using HFFS processes.

A packaging comprising a container configured for disposal of a volume of flowable material. A carton configured for disposal of the container, the carton including a wall defining an opening. Visual indicia of the volume is provided. Packaging products, containers, handles, tooling, applicators and methods are disclosed.

A foldable container blank includes at four side walls, a top panel foldably connected to one of the side walls, a bottom panel foldably connected to one of the side walls, and at least one internal support structure that is connected to one of the side walls. Each internal support structure includes a first portion that is in adjacent relation with the top panel when the container is in a closed condition, and a second portion that is in adjacent relation with the first portion when the container is in a closed condition. In some embodiments, the foldable container blank is integrally formed. A method of forming the foldable container blank and a method of folding a container blank are also provided.

A container is formed from a blank that has a first side and a second side. The first side can have one or more graphics. The container can include a base portion forming an enclosure and first and second overlap panels that collectively form a cover panel that can enclose the enclosure. Methods of constructing the container include forming the cover panel by securing the first and second overlap panels together.

A reusable plastic container is provided. The container includes a plastic container body having opposing side panels and opposing end panels. The container body also includes top side panel flaps attached to a top portion of each side panel, and bottom side panel flaps attached to a bottom portion of each side panel. The container body has top end panel flaps attached to a top portion of each end panel, and bottom end panel flaps attached to a bottom portion of each end panel. The top and bottom side panel flaps are each defined with respect to the side panels by a fold line. The fold lines including at least one scored portion and at least one welded portion.

Provided is a package made of a composite material is represented and described, including a package base with two front base corners and with two rear base corners, a package gable with two front gable corners and with two rear gable corners, and a package base body with a front panel, a first side panel, a second side panel and a rear panel. The package base and the package gable are arranged on opposite sides of the package base body. The composite material has a polymer inner layer, a polymer outer layer and a fibrous support layer, which is arranged between the polymer outer layer and the polymer inner layer. In order to enable the manufacture of packages with even more complex geometries without impairing the rigidity of the package, it is proposed to provide a third sleeve fold line, which has a plurality of sections, which each adjoin a side panel and the rear panel, and of which at least one section is curved.

A paper-based or paperboard-based container (100) for holding a pourable food product is described, the container comprising: a substantially planar bottom portion; a top portion arranged opposite the bottom portion and comprising a top panel and a top sealing region (126) forming a top seal of the container; and a wall portion extending between the bottom portion and the top portion and comprising a plurality of wall sections (108b, 108c) bordering the top panel and a longitudinal sealing band (14) extending between the bottom portion and the top portion and over at least one of the wall sections, wherein the top sealing region is folded onto said at least one of the wall sections comprising the longitudinal sealing band (14) and being attached thereto. A blank and a sleeve for producing the container is also described, as is a method for producing the container.

The invention concerns a transport container for transporting a delicate object, comprising a casing which is divided in a length direction into casing segments (1), provided with at least two upright edges (6) situated spaced apart from one another in a width direction extending transversely to the length direction and divided into edge segments corresponding to the casing segments, wherein two adjacent casing segments together with the corresponding edge segments are foldable about a common rotational axis situated in the plane of the casing, wherein the edge segments are, thanks to a folded structure, rigid in at least one direction perpendicular to the plane of the corresponding casing segments.

A container is provided comprising: a bottom panel, at least one top panel, a first side panel, a second side panel, a plurality of front flanges and a plurality of back flanges, wherein the panels and flanges are connected together to define the container. Back lines of separation are formed in the first and second side panels, the at least one top panel and at an interface between the bottom panel and one of the back flanges such that a removable back portion can be separated from a remainder of the container via the back lines of separation so as to create a product exit opening. Front lines of separation are formed in one of the front flanges to define a tab, which is partially separable from a remainder of the one front flange.

A corrugated paperboard insert for plastic totes includes four side walls and a bottom made from a single sheet of corrugated paperboard. The bottom comprises four interlocking flaps connected along fold lines to respective sidewalls and configured to form an auto-locking bottom that avoids the need for taping. The corrugated paperboard comprises an uncoated linerboard forming an exterior surface of the insert, a coated linerboard forming an interior surface of the insert, a corrugated sheet fixed between the outer linerboard and inner linerboard. The coated linerboard includes a water-based, moisture resistant coating that is food contact rated and recyclable with uncoated paperboard. In some embodiments, point size and/or weight of the inner linerboard is greater than a point size and weight of the outer linerboard.
