A transit and display container 6 comprises a base portion 62, and an upper portion 61 separable from the base portion 62. The upper portion 61 comprises a top face 65 and upper side panels 66, 121, 67, 122 extending forwardly from each peripheral edge of the top face 65. The base portion 62 comprises a bottom face 132 and lower side panels 64,131,63,71 extending upwardly from each peripheral edge of the bottom face 132. The container 6 includes a pair of opposing break-out panels 11a, 11b, each positioned within an opposite upper side panel 121, 67, each overlapping with and adhered to a portion of a corresponding lower side panel 131, 63 and arranged such that at least partial separation of the upper portion 61 and base portion 62 is effected through opposing break-out motions. The break out motions being orthogonal to the plane of each break-out panel 11a, 11b through breakage along lines of weakness 16 provided on the periphery of each break-out panel. The lines of weakness 16 may follow arcuate or circular paths (see fig 1b). A method of creating such a container 6 is also described. |
