ABSTRACT:
A package is formed from an integral sheet of a thermoplastic material having three tray portions including a middle tray portion and first and second end tray portions that fold together to form the package. The middle tray portion has a first article receiving recess and is arranged to define a first receiving cavity for the first end tray portion. The first end tray portion has a mating surface, a second article receiving recess and a first hinge connected to the middle tray portion. The hinge permits the first end tray portion to be inserted into the middle tray portion with the first and second article receiving recesses aligned to secure the article. The mating surface of the first end tray portion after being inserted into the first receiving cavity of the middle tray portion defines a second receiving cavity. The second end tray portion has a second hinge connected to the middle tray portion which permits the second end tray portion to be inserted into the second receiving cavity, whereby a package for the article is formed with the tray portions folded together in a manner that inhibits pilferage.
