ABSTRACT:
A suspension package includes a base and first and second end panels. A hammock is stretched between the end panels, each of which is held in an operational position by a triangulating brace which extends from each end panel to the base and is removably secured to the base. Side panels are connected to the base to fold between a coplanar position and an operational position. When the side panels are in the coplanar position, the side panels and the base can be folded along a center fold to reduce tension on the hammock. Once a product is placed in the hammock, the side panels are moved to the operational position, perpendicular to the base. In the operational position the side panels prevent the base from folding along the center fold and thereby tension the hammock. The entire suspension package can be formed from a single piece of a suitable material such as corrugated paperboard.
