Packaging may include a front box having a cavity to receive a product, a rear box coupled to the front box in a closed position, and a floating band to be slid around the front box and the rear box, thereby maintaining the front and rear box in a closed configuration. The band may be positioned with features such as folded protrusions with corresponding folded protrusions provided on the front box or the rear box.

A box closure device having a first piece, a second piece, and a hub separating the first piece and second piece is provided. The first piece can have one or more engagement portions. The second piece can extend in both directions relative to the hub and is spaced from the first piece a selected amount allowing for box flaps to fit between the top piece and bottom piece. The second piece can have a blade to assist in positioning the closure device between the interior ends of two flaps. The second piece can also have a glide. In use, the user or a machine can engage the engagement portion(s) and twist the closure device so that the bottom piece is no longer aligned with a gap between the flaps thereby locking the flaps in a closed position. Lobes can be located on the ends of the second piece.

A lock for a food container of the type having a lower front flap and a partially-overlapping upper front flap, comprises an elongated body that has a tapered front end, a rear end, and a transverse stop disposed between the front end and the rear end. The front end of the elongated body has at least one angled resilient flange that has have a distal end adapted to flex towards the body temporarily in a compressed position when under force. Thereafter the at least one flange springs back to a natural position once inserted through front flap apertures of the container, inhibiting the removal thereof without breaking a perforated section or an otherwise frangible section of the container, thereby leaving evidence that the container has been opened. An embodiment that includes a clasp for receiving the front end of the body with a bag therebetween is also disclosed.

A fastener is configured to fix a pair of opposing flaps of a box in a closed state. The fastener includes a receiving part, a pressing part opposing the receiving part, a linking part interposed between the receiving part and the pressing part, spaces on both sides of the linking part between the receiving part and the pressing part constituting insertion areas into which the flaps of the box are to be inserted, and a cutter part on the receiving part, the pressing part, or the linking part.

A fastener for an image display assembly comprising a polygonal planar body having a ventral surface with at least one fastening member extending from the ventral surface. The fastening member comprises a fastening member body and at least one cantilever tab extending from the fastening member body. Each cantilever tab comprises a fastener retainer facing the ventral surface. Also provided is an image display assembly comprising retaining features; an assembled image display comprising said image display assembly and said fastener; a kit comprising said image display assembly and said fastener; a method of creating an image display; and use of said image display assembly and said fastener to create an image display.

An example packaging system includes a first box part with a first lid wall, the first lid wall including an aperture. The packaging system also includes a latch slidably disposed within the aperture, the latch having a body portion that extends perpendicularly into the first box part, where the latch is slidable in a direction parallel to the first lid wall. The packaging system also includes a second box part having a first tray wall, the first tray wall including a channel sized to slidably receive the latch, the channel including an assembly channel segment and a locking channel segment. When the first box part and the second box part are fitted together, a) the assembly channel segment is aligned with the latch when the latch is in a first position within the aperture, and b) the latch is slidable within the locking channel segment to a second position.

A handle insert secures top and bottom portions of a box or container to one another while providing a point for securely applying a lifting force to the box or container. The handle insert includes first and second anchoring ends connected by a strap, wherein the first and second anchoring ends each comprise a cavity defined by a closed end and a wall that extends from a perimeter of the closed end, wherein the first and second anchoring ends are configured to detachably attach by nesting.

Implementations herein may involve a packaging system including a first box part including a plurality of lid walls, where a first lid wall comprises an aperture and a latch slidably disposed within the aperture. The packaging system may also include a second box part having a plurality of tray walls, where a first tray wall comprises a channel sized to slidably receive the latch. The channel may include an assembly channel segment and a locking channel segment, where the assembly channel segment intersects an edge of the first tray wall. Further, the second box part may be configured to fit within the first box part such that a) the assembly channel segment is aligned with the latch when the latch is in a first position within the aperture, and b) the latch is slidable within the locking channel segment to a second position.

A package made from sheet material made from a plurality of panels, including a first panel on an external face of the package and adhesively attached to another panel. A corner on an outside surface of the first panel is provided with a nearby perforation or line of weakness to discourage peeling of the corner.
