摘要

This invention relates to a collapsible container, manufactured through injection-molding from plastic with integrated hinges, the sidewalls being pivotally connected to each other and to the bottom, and the at least two sidewalls of the container being foldable. The invention also relates to a method for forming a collapsible container provided with a bottom and at least four sidewalls, pivotally connected thereto, which sidewalls are connected so as to be mutually pivotable, while a mold with at least one mold cavity is used having the shape of the folder-out container, into which mold cavity plastic is introduced with the aid of injection-molding technique, such that in the at least one mold cavity a collapsible container in folded-out condition is injection-molded, while in at least two sidewalls located opposite each other hinging elements are integrally formed, such that the respective sidewalls are foldable.
