ABSTRACT:
A packaging system designed for home appliances, comprises a bottom cap, a top cap, and a plurality of corner angles extending vertically between the bottom cap and top cap and having leg portions facially abutting outer surfaces of the appliance at vertical corners thereof. The corner angles are vertically corrugated and, are formed as synthetic resin extrusions. Each leg of the corner angles have a plurality of planar suface portions facially engaging the appliance surface. The legs of the corner angles define outer planar surfaces engaging complementary planar surfaces of the end caps for providing a stable assembly of the corner angles and end caps. The corner angles have a length greater than the height of the appliance so as to space the top cap above the top surface of the appliance. The packaged assemblies have sufficient rigidity to permit stacking one on top of the other. The packages assembly includes a transparent outer wrapper for retaining the end caps and corner angles on assembled relationship in the packaged assembly. The wrapper may be adhesively bonded to the periphery of the end caps and may be stretched during the application of the wrapper to the assembly so as to provide a biaxial stressing and orientation of the synthetic resin material for improved strength characteristics in the packaged assembly. The end caps may be provided with interlocking structure for preventing horizontal translation of the packages assemblies relative to each other in the stacked relationship.
