Abstract (en)

A blank for making a hanger is formed from a single sheet of cardboard and has two panels (1a, 1b) connected along a hinge line (2). Each panel has an opening (4) spanned by a bridging portion (7) integrally formed with the remainder of the panel. In use, the panels (1a, 1b) are folded together about the hinge line (2) so that the registering openings (4) together define a space accommodating a product (12) which is retained in the space by the bridging portions (7). The panels (1a, 1b) are held in face-to-face relationship by adhesive, the resulting hanger being suspended on a rail at the point of sale. The product is clearly displayed by the hanger which is tamper evident. <IMAGE>
