Blank for a chamfered container

Blank for a pallet stabilizer

A pallet stabilizer formed from a paperboard blank including a central panel having opposing first and second outer longitudinal sides, and opposing first and second lateral sides. At least one beam body is defined by a body flap formed integral with the central panel and comprises a plurality of flap panels connected in series at respective panel fold lines. Two of the flap panels define longitudinally extending opposing beam sides extending transverse to a plane defined by the central panel. One of the flap panels is located distal from the central panel and is hingedly connected to each of the two flap panels defining the beam sides. A glue tab is connected to one of the beam sides and is attached in overlapping relation on the central panel, and opposing longitudinal beam edges are spaced longitudinally inward from the opposing outer longitudinal sides of the central panel.

Pallet stabilizer

A one-piece container formed from a single unitary blank of corrugated paperboard has a bottom wall, opposed side walls and inwardly inclined opposed end walls. Stacking tabs project upwardly from the end walls and tab locks in the bottom wall receive the stacking tabs of a subjacent container when the containers are stacked on top of one another. A reinforcing corner post extends the full height of the container in each corner. The corner posts are formed by panels extending from opposite ends of the end walls, wherein the panels include a first panel foldably joined to an end of an associated end wall and adhered to an adjacent side wall, a second panel foldably joined to the first panel and extending diagonally across the corner, and a third panel foldably joined to the second panel and adhered to an adjacent side wall.
