According to a first aspect of the present teachings there is provided a partially-assembled carton for the sealed containment of food, the partially-assembled carton comprising a base panel and a rear panel, wherein the base panel and the rear panel are substantially rectangular; and a first side panel extending between the base panel and the rear panel and a second side panel extending between the base panel and the rear panel, wherein the first and second side panels are substantially triangular. At least one of the base panel, the rear panel, the first side panel and the second side panel comprises a first portion hingedly connected to another one of the base panel, the rear panel, the first side panel and the second side panel, and a second portion hingedly connected to a further one of the base panel, the rear panel, the first side panel and the second side panel. The first portion and the second portion are joined to one another at a first seam. The first seam is adhesively secured.

A foldable sealing container is provided with cuts, creases, adhesion of some elements, and a planar collapsed position to permit rapid reconfiguration to an expanded position. A plurality of catching mechanisms comprises friction tabs partially folded along friction tab creases to engage friction tab edges with side panels and hold the bottom side panels substantially perpendicular relative to the bottom panel. The plurality of catching mechanisms holds bottom side panels in a substantially upright position to form leak-proof seals at the lower corners. Engagement of the friction tab catching mechanisms provides enhanced leak resistance, improving storage and transportation of liquids and liquid-containing foods.

The present invention is directed to securely stackable, box pallet merchandising storage and display box and system for use in storing and displaying clothing or other merchandising goods. The merchandising display box generally includes a bottom panel, U-shaped front panel foldably connected to the bottom panel and defining a display opening and a rear panel also foldably connected to the bottom panel. First and second side panels are further foldably connected to the bottom panel and include securing flaps for securing the first and second side panels to the front and rear panels. Projections extend upwardly from the first and second side panels and cutouts are formed along bottom edges of the first and second side panels. The projections are configured to engage cutouts formed in a second merchandising display box positioned on top of the merchandising display box to secure or lock the merchandising display boxes together to prevent slippage therebetween.

A protective packaging (2) for an object (4) including: a sheath (6) and an element (8) for supporting the object (4) configured to slide in the sheath (6), characterised in that the element (8) for supporting the object (4) comprises two hollow holding elements (12A, 12B) connected to each other by at least one hinge and at least one of the two hollow holding elements (12A, 12B) has an imprint configured to enclose at least a portion of the object (4) by interlocking.

Provided is a consumable package assembly including a consumable container and an outer packaging portion. The consumable container includes a chip, and the outer packaging portion includes an accommodating portion for accommodating the consumable container. The outer packaging portion includes a first through hole configured to expose at least a part of the chip, and a second through hole configured to expose at least a part of the accommodating portion so as to position the consumable container. Operation to the chip on the consumable container can be performed without removing the outer packaging portion so as to avoid scrapping of the outer packaging portion, thereby reducing the procedures of the production or the reprocessing and resulting in lower cost and higher efficiency. The second through hole is configured to prevent the unfixed position of the consumable container in the outer packaging portion from resulting inaccurate operation to the chip.

A packaging assembly includes an outer packaging unit, at least one to-be-packaged unit, and a loading unit configured to accommodate the at least one to-be-packaged unit to limit movement of the at least one to-be-packaged unit with respect to the loading unit. The outer packaging unit includes a receiving unit capable of receiving at least a part of the loading unit and the at least one to-be-packaged unit which are fit to each other.

A container, formed from a container blank, for containing therein a dispensable material of variety of form, has a plurality of panels. A first panel has severance lines that upon application of pressure disengage to create an integral spout for dispensing of the material. Opening and closing of the container is each via easy application of minimal force causing the spout to open or close as needed. The initial opening of the spout severs the severance lines that form the spout. Thereafter the spout may be open or closed upon proper application of pressure around folding lines of the container.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a package (92), a carton or tray (90) for packaging one or more articles and a blank (10A, 10B) for forming the carton (90) and a lid (L). The carton comprises a main panel (12), and a plurality of side walls (14, 16, 18) forming a tray (90). The tray (90) may be substantially triangular in shape. At least one of the side walls (14, 16, 18) comprises a major recess (R1, R2, R3) for receiving a portion of a lid (L). The major recess (R1, R2, R3) defines a support edge (SE.sub.1, SE.sub.2, SE.sub.3) for supporting a portion of the lid (L).

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.

The present invention is directed to a foldable transport container suitable to receive and hold multiple plates with samples in it. The container is comfortable to load, transport and unload. The invention also relates to a strip of material for providing such a foldable transport container. Finally the invention relates to a method for assembling such a foldable container.
