ABSTRACT:
To securely retain a multi-unit folded fluorescent lamp (L) having a gap d, 21d) between adjacent legs of the lamp in position in an elongated box (1'), the box is formed from a blank (1) having a top panel (15) which overlies an intermediate panel (16) of lesser width than the top panel, from which at least a first retention flap (19a) extends in a first gap between the two legs of the lamp. A second retention flap (19b) is cut, along a severing line (19c), from the intermediate panel element (16) and folded along a fold or crease line (21) to fit into the gap between other legs of the discharge vessel or discharge vessel unit of the lamp. The retention flaps (19a, 19b) retain the lamp and support the legs in case of vibration or shock due to transport. Preferably, a protective flap (9) extends from the bottom panel (2) at a position further away from the terminal end of connecting pins (11, 11') projecting from the base (12) of the lamp, the protective flap (9) being folded back against the pins (11, 11') to protect them and additionally protect the lamp against damage due to axial shocks.
