ABSTRACT:
A container for printer paper or the like formed of a rectangular bottom part containing the paper and a rectangular cover having peripheral flanging which enables the cover to fit exactly over the bottom part. The cover is formed with a deformable band which is integral with the material of the cover and constitutes the handle of the container. The band is obtained by providing the cover with two cuts which extend side by side between two opposite upper edges of the cover. In the middle part of the cover, the cuts deviate to form two rectangular tabs. The cuts also extend downwardly past the upper edges a short distance to enable the band to arch upwardly when upwardly pulling it. The cuts are oriented in such a way that the band is widest at the cover edges, and narrowest at the ends of the cut extensions and at the middle part of the cover. To prevent any damage to the handle while carrying the carrier box, a reinforcing belt is wrapped around the bottom part and cover while remaining in contact with the band.
