Abstract
A box for packaging a tubular container whose bottom is formed with a closing line, the container having a width that increases in the direction towards the closing line. The box is obtained by successively folding a blank in a single piece so as to be able to wedge the container inside the box and guide the container during its insertion into the box. To this end, the box has two V-shaped recesses disposed on either side of the object and separated by a distance smaller than the greatest width of the container, the recesses opening out in the vicinity of one of the ends of the box.
