A package for a battery or other article, comprising a sheet of material bent or folded along a plurality of substantially parallel fold lines 21, 22, 25, 26 to define an upwardly extending substantially flat panel region 15, an upper end locating region 11 extending forwardly from the lower extremity of the said panel region, a first limb 3 extending obliquely downwardly and rearwardly from the forward extremity of the end locating region, a second limb 5 extending obliquely forwardly and downwardly and defining with the first limb a V-section channel region, a lower end locating region 13 extending rearwardly from the lower limb, and a rear panel region 17 extending upwardly from the rear extremity of the lower end locating region and secured to the first mentioned panel region 15. The limbs have aligned openings 7 shaped to fit closely about at least the forward circumference of said article, with the rear portion of said article positively located by said openings and/or by the said rear panel region and/or by material of said sheet at the juncture of said limbs. The sheet is initially set with a small angle between the limbs to facilitate insertion of the battery, then the angle between the limbs is increased so that the edges of the openings 7 press against the front of the battery.
