A plastic band is provided for encircling and combining into a single package, two multi-package assemblies of cans. The plastic band of the present invention encircles the outside of the array of cans comprising the combination of two multi-packages and further provides a central stabilizing strap which provides firm resilient engagement with at least all of the corner cans of each individual multi-package.

Multi-package and packaging device

A multi-packaging device for creating a package designed particularly for an array of bottle-like containers. A relatively flat sheet member is configured so that upon association of the sheet members with the array so that as the necks of each bottle are forced through slits in the device, the device is stressed and resiliently deformed to create end, side, and central panel portions that conform to the shoulders and necks of the bottles, thus creating a highly unitized and stable package.
