Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2005095217A1] The invention relates to a combination of differently sized nest and stack containers. Every container (2, 3) is adapted to be stackable and nestable with identical containers (2; 3). The smaller containers (3), in a plane view, have substantially half the size of the large container (2) in a plane view so that two smaller containers (3) each can be stacked on a large container (2) in a non-slip and stable manner. The bottom of the larger container (2) and/or the lateral upper edges (35) of the smaller containers (2) are configured in such a manner that large containers (2) can be stacked on two juxtaposed smaller containers (3). The containers arranged one on top of the other in the stack (1) are provided with means which engage with each other and maintain the stacked containers in a non-slip manner when the containers are stacked (2, 3).
