Abstract
A stackable package for storing fruit or like objects is in the form of a tray, carton or case (1) with a pair of panel supports (6) provided adjacent each end wall (3). The panel supports (6) substantially bear the weight of like packages positioned thereabove when a stack of packages is formed. The panel supports have a pair of protrusions (8) on the upper edge thereof and a pair of recesses (14) adjacent the lower edge thereof wherein the protrusions can be positioned in the recesses of a package positioned thereabove when two or more packages are stacked. So that a stiff protrusion is provided, the panel support is formed from dual arch corrugated board having two layers of corrugated board joined at the protrusions. The wedge-shaped protrusions (8) thus produced can be readily indexed in adjacent recesses (18) in the base of a carton stacked above, and in top lid apertures (23, 24) in the closed position.
