ABSTRACT:
A container tray is provided with a tray member and an insert member that are able to be assembled in conjunction with each other. The tray member is shaped to provide a series of extension members, tabs and notches that form end portions of the tray member that lock the side panels together in a robust manner. The extension members, notches, slots and tabs are also arranged to facilitate the assembly of a flat paper structure into a strong tray member. The insert member is provided with a plurality of risers and notches that are shaped to be received by associated components in the tray member and lock the insert member rigidly into place within the tray member. The container tray can be used during the assembly and testing process of components and can also be used to shipped the finished components to a customer without having to remove the product from one tray and place it into another shipping container. The structure of the container tray permits it to be manufactured from materials that are not environmentally harmful.
