<p>Boxes e.g. for fruit and vegetables are described which consist of a base and sidewalls folded up from the base. The ends of the sidewalls are held in position relative to one another and relative to the base of the box by means of a number of corner posts, e.g. four for a rectangular box. Each corner post is produced from an extruded section and can simply be slid on to the two adjacent ends of sidewalls when they are held substantially in the upright position. Means are provided to stop lateral movement of one corner post relative to the one below it when two such boxes are stacked vertically aligned. Such means may comprise shaping on the end of each corner post or intermediate stacking pegs which engage e.g. the top of one corner post and the bottom of the vertically adjacent next box.</p> |
