  • a combined shipping and point of display carton typically includes removable sections adapted to be removed at the point of sale to allow the contents of the carton to be displayed and accessed by the customer.
  • a problem with known shipping and point of display cartons is that the contents of the carton are not at a convenient height when the carton is placed on the ground.
  • the provision of removable sections of the carton, required to allow the contents to be displayed, often compromises the strength of the carton during shipping.
  • a shipping and point of sale display carton comprising a display carton adapted to hold and display a plurality of products, said display carton being telescopically received and enclosed within a shipping sleeve within which the display carton is a sliding fit, whereby the display carton can be telescopically slid within the shipping sleeve between a shipping position, wherein the display carton is contained within the shipping sleeve, and an elevated display position, wherein an upper portion of the display carton extends above an upper end of the shipping sleeve, at least one inner wall of the shipping sleeve including at least one support member adapted to be movable between a first position, wherein said support member sits between an outer side of the display carton and the shipping sleeve when the display carton is in its shipping position within the shipping sleeve, and a second position, extending from said at least one inner wall of the shipping sleeve, when the display carton is in its display position, wherein the display carton
  • the at least one support sleeve is adapted to automatically move to its second position as the display carton is moved to its elevated display position.
  • the display sleeve maintains the at least one support member in its first position, between the display carton and the shipping sleeve, when the display carton is in its shipping position within the display sleeve.
  • At least one support member may be provided on each of a pair of opposing inner walls of the shipping sleeve.
  • the at least one support member is integrally formed with said shipping sleeve.
  • the shipping sleeve may be formed from a blank of foldable sheet material.

  • each of the second and fourth inner wall panels 36,38 incorporate foldable flaps 46,47,48,49 defining said support members for supporting the display carton thereon when in its elevated display position, said flaps 46,47,48,49 being separated from the remainder of the respective inner panel 36,40 by respective fold lines 50,51,52,53 extending parallel to the first to fourth fold lines 39,30,31,33.
  • each flap 46,47,48,49 is preferably less than the length of the associated inner panel 36,40, each flap being separate from the remainder of the respective inner panel 36,40 by a respective cut line 54,55,56,57 at one end, said cut lines 54,55,56,57 extending parallel to the fifth to eighth fold lines 41,42,43,44 and spaced from the respective adjacent fold line 41,42,43,44.
  • the foldable flaps 46,47,48,49 extend beyond the side edges of the respective inner panel 36,40 in which they are formed such that the sum of the width of each flap 46,47,48 and an intervening portion of the respective inner panel 36,40 is greater than the width of the associated outer panel 22,24,26,28 of the sleeve 4.
  • First and second flaps 46,47 formed on either side of the second inner panel 36 extend into cut out regions in the adjacent side of the respective first and third inner panels 34,38.
  • a third flap 48 formed on a first side of the fourth inner panel 40 extends into a cut out region in an adjacent side of the third inner panel 38.
  • a fourth flap 49, formed on a second side of the fourth inner panel 40, opposite said first side, extends beyond the adjacent edge of the fourth inner panel 40.
  • Each of the flaps 46,47,48,49 includes an intermediate fold line 58,59,60,61 extending parallel to an adjacent outer edge of the respective flap 46,47,48,49 and between said outer edge and respective fold line 50,51,52,53 separating the respective flap 46,47,48,49 from the remainder of the respective inner panel 36,40, such that each flap 46,47,48,49 can be folded to define a double thickness panel able to be located between the shipping sleeve 4 and the display carton 2 when folded and when the display carton 2 is in its shipping position within the shipping sleeve 4, each flap 46,47,48 automatically springing open to an extended position, as illustrated in Figures 7 to 9 , when the display carton 2 is moved to its elevated display position, such that the extended flaps 46,47,48,49 define supports upon which the display carton 2 can rest to support the display carton 2 on the shipping sleeve 4 in its elevated display position.
