Abstract (en)

A returnable container has a light-weight, generally rectangular, base frame (1) with wall members hingedly attached thereto. A lid (L) has portions receiving the upper edges of the wall members to define a closed container. Each frame member of the base forms one part of a hinge of which the other part is a preformed substantially continuous edge portion of the co-operating wall member. The hinges permit at least a plurality of the wall members to pivot at least inwardly of the container whilst remaining connected to the base frame members, and at least one wall member (R) to pivot outwardly.
