In accordance with at least one aspect of this disclosure, a blank for forming a container includes a base having a first pair of opposed base edges and a second pair of opposed base edges. The blank includes two first side wall structures, each first side wall structure foldably attached to one of the first base edges and two second side wall structures, each second side wall structure foldably attached to one of the second base edges.

Produce trays with reinforced tabs

A display tray system including a first tray defining an outer perimeter of the display tray system, a second tray having at least three outer walls defining an outer perimeter of the display tray system, a first corner having a first height at a junction of two of the at least three outer walls, a second corner having a height equal to the first corner at a junction of two of the at least three outer walls, a joining wall defining an inner border with the first tray, a third corner at a junction of the joining wall and one of the at least three outer walls, a fourth corner at a junction of the joining wall and one of the at least three outer walls, and a joining member coupled to the joining wall of the first tray and coupled to the joining wall of the second tray to couple the first and second trays together and provide vertical support.

Display tray for improved product visibility

A blank for forming a container includes a base having a first pair of opposed base edges and a second pair of opposed base edges. Two sidewall structures are each foldably attached to one of the second base edges. Each of the sidewall structures includes a first wall panel foldably attached to one of the second base edges along a first fold line, a second wall panel foldably attached to the first wall panel configured to be overlapped with the first wall panel to form a side wall. A second minor end flap is foldably attached by a crushed channel to the second side wall panel, and extends in the lateral direction from the second side wall panel. The second minor end flap is configured to overlap a first minor end flap in forming a corner of a container formed from the blank.

Corner configurations for tray containers

A blank for forming a package can include a base panel, a first base side panel foldably connected to the base panel, a plurality of first base side flaps foldably connected to the first base side panel, a second base side panel foldably connected to the base panel opposite the first base side panel, and a plurality of second base side flaps foldably connected to the second base side panel. The blank can include a hinge panel foldably connected to the base panel, a top panel foldably connected to the hinge panel, a first top side panel foldably connected to the top panel, a plurality of first top side flaps foldably connected to the first top side panel, a second top side panel foldably connected to the top panel opposite the first top side panel, and a plurality of second top side flaps foldably connected to the second top side panel. An end first base side flap and an end first top side flap can be formed and separated by a first cut line such that the end first base side flap and the end first top side flap are abutting each other, and an end second base side flap and an end second top side flap can be formed and separated by a second cut line such that the end second base side flap and the end second top side flap are abutting each other.

Containers having folding tops and blanks therefor

A container includes a base panel. An opposed pair of end panels extends from the base panel at opposite ends of the base panel. A front panel extends from the base panel and extends from a first one of the end panels to a second one of the end panels. A back panel extends from the base panel and extends from the first one of the end panels to the second one of the end panels. The end panels taper so top edges of the front and back panels are either longer or shorter than bottom edges of the front and back panels. Each end panel includes a plurality of overlapping end flaps adhered to one another. The end flaps of each of the end panels are connected to a respective one of the base panel and each of the front and back panel at respective fold lines.

Tapered end containers

A container includes a plurality of panels connected together to enclose an interior space. At least one tear away portion is defined in the plurality of panels. An insert is adhered to the at least one tear away portion for removal from the plurality of panels together with the at least one tear away portion to provide access to the interior space. The insert can extend from a first end of the interior space to an opposite end of the interior space as a load bearing member between two opposed panels of the plurality of panels.

Containers with removable display converting panels

A container is provided including a blank of sheet material having an interior surface and an opposing exterior surface. The blank forms the container having a front wall, a bottom wall, a back wall, a top wall, a first side wall and an opposing second side wall, the container defining a cavity, and at least the front wall defining a display area for facilitating displaying product contained within container.

Shipping and display container

A plurality of cartons, preferably fabricated from paper, paperboard and/or corrugated paperboard, and particularly of tray or wrapper-style construction, are provided, having integral lid constructions, and outer overlap panels, operably associated with the at least one top panel, to enable articulation of the carton into a substantially completed structure, without interfering with the subsequent articulation of the at least one top panel to enable loading of the carton subsequent to articulation and affixation of the outer overlap panels.

Integrated carton lid designs

An article-transport container comprises a floor having a respective left-side and right-side closures that are foldably joined thereto. A front end wall is foldably joined to the floor and to the respective left-side and right-side closures. A rear end wall is foldably joined to the floor and to the respective left-side and right-side closures and at least one tri-layers corner cooperate with the respective left-side and right-side closures to define an interior region adapted to receive articles therein. The least one tri-layer corner includes respective outer and inner layers and a medical layer which is sandwiched between the respective outer and inner layers and a medical layer which is sandwiched between the respective outer and inner layers to enhance stacking strength of the container while minimizing scarps produced during construction of the container.

Article-transport container

An article-transport tray includes a floor and a side wall which cooperate to form an article-storage space sized to carry a wide variety of items, articles, or products.

Container with gusseted corner

A container is adapted to transport food or other articles. The container includes a floor, two side walls, a front end closure coupled to the side walls, and a rear end closure coupled to the side walls.
