An improved carton for packaging a plurality of multiple articles having a chime formed on one end thereof. The improved carton has a series of spacing means or ribs formed on at least one of the panels of the carton with the spacing means serving to abut a portion of the chimes of the multiple articles packaged within the carton. The spacing means serve to protect the exterior portion of the carton from becoming disfigured by the chimes of the multiple articles packaged within making circular indentations on the interior face and coming through to the exterior portion of the carton whenever several cartons are stacked on top of each other. The spacing means utilized serves to separate a major portion of the chimes from coming in contact with the underside of the panel thereby providing a much improved appearance of the advertising matter printed on the exterior of the package which is important to the sale of the package contents. The spacing means forming the ribbed carton may be formed in the preferred embodiment by a series of scorelines formed on the exterior face of at least one of the panels of the carton, and the scorelines may be formed in various patterns as desired by the customer and may also be formed in more than one panel of the carton, dependent upon the positioning of the cans in the carton and the types of cans that are to be packaged by the carton.
