ABSTRACT:
A formable reusable enclosure is disclosed for use as a container wrap, a mailing tube, or the like. One specific embodiment of the enclosure comprises a pliable, elongated, substantially rectangular panel member having opposing ends and a tongue portion extending from one of the opposed ends. The panel member has an outer layer of bendable kraft board and an inner layer of corrugated paper adhered to the kraft board. The panel member is adapted to be formed into an enclosure by bending the panel member into the configuration of the peripheral wall of a container with the tongue portion overlapping the opposing end of the panel member. A slot is formed through the panel member adjacent to the end which is opposite to the tongue portion end. The slot has an engagement edge aligned parallel to the corrugations in the inner paper layer, enabling adjustment of the size of the enclosure by selecting a desired corrugation for engagement with the slot edge. The selected corrugation locks against the engagement edge when the tongue portion is inclined at an acute angle with respect to the outer kraft paper layer, thereby preventing the tongue portion form withdrawing from the slot.
