Definitions

  • Stackable outer case packaging for transporting and displaying articles contained therein.
  • shelf ready packaging are a means for packaging a plurality of articles in outer cases in a manner that they can be displayed, for instance on a supermarket shelf or aisle, directly from the outer case without first having to remove the articles from the outer case.
  • the individual articles, contained within the shelf ready packaging can be individual packets, cans, bottles, bags, boxes, and the like.
  • the shelf ready packaging has a removable element, formed by a line of weakness in the outer-case, which can be easily removed. Once the removable element has been removed, the articles contained within are displayed to the customer, and the customer is able to remove the displayed article.
  • Shelf ready packaging avoids the time consuming effort associated with removing articles from the outer case and placing on shelves. Store owners are constantly looking for additional ways in which to reduce costs for stacking articles, while ensuring that the article remains presentable to the customer.
  • Such shelf ready packaging is typically placed adjacent to other shelf ready packaging, on a shelf or even on a pallet, and the removable element removed in order to display the articles contained therein.
  • the shelf ready packages can even be stacked on top of each other, on the pallet or directly on the floor.
  • the outer surfaces of the shelf ready packages are typically decorated with images and wording which is relevant for the articles contained therein.
  • the outer surfaces of the shelf ready package are often decorated such that the overall impression from a stack or row of the shelf ready packages is improved.
  • the present invention relates to a shelf ready package (1) and at least one article (100) contained therein, wherein the shelf ready package (1) has an image (101) of the article (100) printed on a surface selected from the group consisting of: side wall inner surface (31) or (41), back wall inner surface (51), and combinations thereof, wherein the image (101) on the surface is substantially aligned to the article (100), when viewed perpendicular to the surface which comprises the image (101).
  • the article (100) and image (101) are substantially aligned when viewed from the left side.
  • the article (100) and image (101) are substantially aligned when the article (100) and image (101) substantially overlap (see figure 1 ).
  • the article (100) covers at least 60%, preferably at least 70%, more preferably at least 80% of the image (101) by area, when viewed perpendicularly to the surface which comprises the image (101).
  • Shelf ready packages (1) can be used both to transport articles (100) to the retail outlet, and also display the articles (100) in the retail outlet. As such, they are typically designed to form an aesthetically pleasing display when the shelf ready packages (1) are arranged adjacent to each other.
  • the plurality of shelf ready packages (1) can comprise at least 2 layers, preferably from 2 to 8 layers, more preferably from 4 to 6 layers of the shelf ready packages (1), preferably placed on a pallet (200).
  • the shelf ready packages (1) can be arranged next to each other, such as on a shelf. They can also be stacked on top of each other, as a floor display, or even displayed directly from the pallet (200).
  • the shelf ready package (1) comprises at least one, preferably from 2 to 16, more preferably from 4 to 16 articles (100), contained within the shelf ready package (1).
  • a shelf ready package (1) of the present invention is shown in figure 1 , having a front wall (2), side walls (3) and (4), a back wall (5), and a top wall (6).
  • An image (101) of the article is printed on the inner surface of side wall (3), the inner surface of the second side wall (4), the inner surface of the back wall (5), and combinations thereof.
  • a bottom wall (7) completes the container, for totally enclosing and protecting articles contained therein.
  • the image (101) typically has all of the principle visual elements of the article (100), preferably including the overall shape, the brand name, and the like.
  • the image (101) typically has a height of from 50% to 150% of the height of the article (100) to be contained within the shelf ready package (1).
  • the image (101) has a height of from 75% to 125%, more preferably from 90% to 110% of the height of the article (100) to be contained within the shelf ready package (1).
  • the image (101) can be in black and white or grey scale, the image (101) is preferably in color. More preferably, the article (100) and image (101) have at least one common element, preferably greater than one common element of the same color.
  • the image (101) is preferably positioned, such that when articles have been removed, the "empty" impression of the at least partially empty shelf ready package is substantially diminished, and visual continuity is maintained across the adjacent shelf ready packages (1).
  • Any suitable article can be contained within the shelf ready package, including: fabric care products such as liquid laundry bottles, powdered laundry bags, fabric softeners, and the like; household cleaners, including dish washing agents, floor cleaners, and the like; personal care products such as moisturisers, cosmetics, shampoos, shaving products, and the like; diaper bags; perfumes; pet food; and combinations thereof.
  • fabric care products such as liquid laundry bottles, powdered laundry bags, fabric softeners, and the like
  • household cleaners including dish washing agents, floor cleaners, and the like
  • personal care products such as moisturisers, cosmetics, shampoos, shaving products, and the like
  • diaper bags perfumes; pet food; and combinations thereof.
  • the shelf ready package (1) can comprise an outer-case having a bottom wall (7), typically made from one carton blank (60) (see figure 2 ).
  • Such carton blanks typically comprise lower portions (71), (72), (73) and (74) respectively, which form the bottom wall (7).
  • the lower portions (71), (72), (73) and (74) are preferably formed into the bottom wall (7) using adhesive tape, gluing, and combinations thereof, though gluing is preferred.
  • the line of weakness (40) is preferably continuous, such as forming a loop, so that the at least partially removable element (30) can be fully removed (see figure 1 and 3 ), preferably by hand, more preferably without the use of a tool.
  • the line of weakness can also be discontinuous, such that the at least partially removable element (30) remains partly attached.
  • the shelf ready package (1) typically comprises a fold line (43).
  • Such fold lines can be added to the carton blank (60), or can be added after the carton has been assembled into an outer case. In the latter case, the fold line (43) can be formed by any suitable means, such as scoring, perforating, and combinations thereof.
  • Scoring can be achieved by applying suitable pressure onto a knife or sharp element which is placed on the carton blank (60), before or after forming the carton blank into an outer case.
  • a perforated fold line (43) can be formed using any suitable means, such as punch pins (typically in the form of dots or slits), a cutting disc, or a laser. For carton blanks which comprise paperboard, lasers are not preferred.
  • the fold line (43) preferably has a resistance to separation which is higher than that of the line of weakness (40).
  • the continuous line of weakness (40) preferably has a minimum radius at points of directional change of at least 10 millimeters. Points of directional change, as used herein, do not include the corners of the container. The minimum radius aids in the ease and clean removal of the at least partially removable element (30) from the shelf ready packaging (1).
  • the radius at points of directional change is preferably 20 to 50 millimeters.
  • the at least partially removable element (30) can be present on the front wall (2), side walls (3) and (4), top wall (6), and combinations thereof.
  • the at least partially removable element (30) preferably comprises a front face (32), more preferably the at least partially removable element (30) comprises a front face (32) and top face (36). Even more preferably, the at least partially removable element (30) comprises a front face (32), top face (36), and at least one side face (33) or (34).
  • the at least partially removable element (30) consists of a front face (32), top face (36), and one side face (33) or (34).
  • the shelf ready package can be at least partially sealed using tape (20) which overlaps at least part of the line of weakness (40).
  • the tape can be perforated, such that the tape perforations (50) coincide with at least part of the line of weakness (40).
  • Any suitable means can be used to perforate the tape, the outer-case, and combinations thereof. Suitable means include using a laser, a knife, such as a rotary knife, punch-pins, and combinations thereof.
  • the grasping member (38) can be defined by secondary lines of weakness (39).
  • Each secondary line of weakness (39) may exhibit a uniform resistance to separation along its entire length, or alternatively vary in resistance to separation along its length.
  • each secondary line of weakness (39) varies in resistance to separation along its length, allowing each grasping member (38) to be only partially disassociated from the walls (that is, separated along a first region and rotatably displaced along one or more remaining regions of secondary line of weakness (39). This avoids separate disposal issues.
  • the secondary lines of weakness (39) can be perforated lines, with optionally each line having a varying resistance to separation along its length by virtue of having land components and perforation components of varying dimensions.
  • the carton blank (60) is typically made from paperboard, usually in roll-form.
  • the paperboard is typically unwound for printing and the printed paperboard rerolled for later use, or immediately corrugated. Alternatively, printing can take place after corrugation.
  • the image (101) of the article is printed on the part of the paperboard which will form the side wall inner surface (31) or (41), back wall inner surface (51), and combinations thereof. Generally, at least part, and sometimes all, of the surface of the paperboard which will form the outer surface of the shelf ready package is also printed.
  • the corrugated board can have other structures, such as single face (one layer of liner and one layer of medium), double wall (3 layers of liners having 2 layers of mediums in between).
