The present invention relates to a container, an intermediate product for forming a container, a denester and method of manufacturing. The container and the inter-mediate product for forming the container comprise a first main part defining a top part or a bottom part of the container, and a number of side wall elements defining side surfaces of the top part or said bottom part. At least one of the side wall elements comprises a denester being made from material of the at least one side wall element, where the material is cut from the at least one wall element and bent into the interior of the container.

The invention pertains to an egg package comprising: a bottom part (4) formed by suction molding of a fibrous material, the bottom part (4) comprising a rear side (28), a front side (30), two end sides (32), and a plurality of egg-receiving compartments (34) having non-planar side surfaces (35) so as to match at least partially the outer contours of an egg, the plurality of compartments (34) being arranged in at least two parallel rows with upwardly extending projections (36) located between the rows of compartments (34), a cover part (6) comprising two substantially planar end surfaces (10), substantially planar rear (48) and front surfaces (12), and a substantially planar top surface (14), said cover part (6) being formed by cardboard and connected to the bottom part (4) via an elongated flap (40) extending from the rear side (28) of the bottom part (4), said elongated flap (40) being provided with a weakening in the transition between said elongated flap (40) and rear side (28) of the bottom part (4), said weakening forming a hinge (50) so as to allow the cover part (6) to move between an open position and a closed position, said elongated flap (40) at least in part overlapping the inner side (42) of said rear surface (48) of the cover part (6), said bottom part (4) comprising a retainment flap (44) hinged to the front side (30) of the bottom part (4), said retainment flap (44) comprising at least one outwardly extending retainment projection (26) for locking engagement with one or more co-operating apertures (46) in the front surface (12) of the cover part (6), said cover part (6) further comprising a substantially flat display surface (16) formed in the region between the top surface (14) and front surface (12) of the cover part (6), said substantially flat display surface (16) meeting the top surface (14) at a first obtuse angle, thereby forming a first edge (18), and said substantially flat display surface (16) meeting the front surface (12) at a second obtuse angle, thereby forming a second edge (20). The invention also pertains to a kit of parts comprising a bottom part for an egg package and a blank of cardboard material comprising preformed cutting and folding lines, the blank being configured such that, when cut and folded along said cutting and folding lines, it forms a cover for said bottom part.

Protective packaging is described that includes a base having an outer and an inner base wall. A plurality of sidewalls extends from the outer base wall to define an internal volume and an opening. The internal volume is opposite the outer base wall. The inner base wall is disposed within the internal volume spaced apart from the outer base wall. A cover includes an outer cover wall and an inner cover wall. The cover is rotatably attached to at least one sidewall. The cover is rotatable between a closed position in which the cover closes the opening and an open position in which the cover does not close the opening. In the closed position, the inner cover wall is within the internal volume and spaced apart from the outer cover wall and the inner base wall. The inner base wall and the inner cover wall receive or house an item.
