A self folding box with a carrier for packing of pizza, as well as a tool for forming the box, comprises a box (A) with a lower part (1) of the box and a cover (2) of the box, wherein on a bottom (1.1) of the lower part (1) of the box is placed a carrier (4) for two slices of pizza quarter. Lateral sides (1.2, 2.2), auxiliary sides (1.8, 2.8) and an opposite side (1.5, 2.5) are made around bottom (1.1, 2.1) both of the lower part (1) and the cover (2) of the box (A). The lateral sides (1.1, 2.1) and the auxiliary sides (1.8, 2.8) are mutually connected and locked by means of tongues (1.3) entering slots (1.10). The opposite side (1.5, 2.5) is locked in a slot (1.7) in the bottom (1.1, 2.1) by means of a tongue (1.6). The carrier (4) comprises two pads (3) for one slice of pizza quarter, which are superposed one on another, so that the tongues (3.3, 3.4, 3.6) of the sides (3.2) of the upped pad (3) enclose from outside the sides (3.2) of the lower pad (3), while the trapezoidal tongues (3.5) of the lower pad (3) enter the openings (3.7) of the upper pad (3). An auxiliary tongue (3.9) of the lower auxiliary carrier (3.8) encloses from outside the upper auxiliary carrier (3.8). The pad (3) for two slices of pizza quarter is formed by manual folding the cardboard formed unfolded blank (F) along the folding lines (3.21, 3.81, 3.91). Forming the box (A), i.e. both the lower part (1) and the cover (2) thereof is carried out in the same tool (9) that comprises a tool holder (9.1), on which is attached a tool bottom (9.2) with the sides (9.3, 9.4, 9.5, 9.6) for forming the box. There is also a variant of the invention defined by the box (A1).

A construct for holding at least one article. The construct comprises a plurality of panels extending at least partially around an interior of the construct. The plurality of panels can at least partially form a corner of the construct. The construct further comprises locking features for at least partially interlocking the construct with a separate construct. The locking features can comprise at least a locking tab and an engagement aperture, and the locking tab can be proximate the engagement aperture at the corner of the construct.
