Abstract

A blank (11) for forming a carton for packaging a plurality of articles comprising a series of hingably interconnected top (18,20), first side (14), bottom (12) and second side (16) panels for forming an open ended sleeve capable of receiving said articles, the top and bottom panels being similarly non-rectangularly shaped substantially to correlate with the cross-sectional shape of the array of articles in a plan parallel to said top and bottom panels, wherein a gusset (38d) comprising two hingably connected gusset panels (58,60) connects the first side panel and top or bottom panel which gusset is adapted to facilitate movement of the side panel to correlate with the associated shape of a stowed array of articles during the formation of the carton.
