Abstract

Apparatus for forming a package comprises first and second holding elements (12) and (14) for holding a partially formed container between them at respective opposite upwardly extending edges of the partially formed container, there being no holding elements for the partially formed container at other respective opposite upwardly extending edges of the partially formed container. There is provided a driving arrangement for advancing the holding elements (12) and (14) and thus the partially formed container on a path (45), with a series of devices (22) to (36) distributed along the path (45) for performing operations in relation to the partially formed container.
