Abstract (en)
The invention relates to a blank (100), and an associated container (200), for use in the storage, transportation and display of a product. The container (200) comprises a base (210) and a cover (212), which are erectable from the blank (100) and which are detachably secured together on erection of the blank (100) for storage and transportation purposes. The cover (212) can be detached from the base (210) at a point-of-sale to display a product or products contained in the base (210). The container (200) of the invention is formed from a blank (100) in which first and second parts (110,112) corresponding to the base (210) and cover (212) of the container (200) erectable therefrom are connected together by an access flap (116) that is integral to the second, cover part (112) of the blank (100) and is detachably connected to the first, base part (110) of the blank (100). A container (200) formed from such a blank (100) negates the need to glue the access flap (116) to the cover part (112) of the blank (100) in a separate process step for forming a partially erected blank (100") and may enable the cover and access flap (116) of the container (200) to be removed in a single manual operation.
