Abstract

A carrier for transporting an article (C) having a pour opening (130) comprises a top panel (20) for overlaying a dispensing face (132) of the article and an engaging tab (58) struck from and integrally formed with the top panel (20), said engaging tab (58) being insertable into a pour opening (130) of the article formed within the dispensing face (132), so as to detachably secure the article to the top panel (20). The carrier may form part of a secondary packaging structure for securing and transporting unopened articles.
