ABSTRACT:
A severable wall construction for a tray forming package or carton. One or more circumferential zones is each defined by overlapping wall portions of the package or carton, each zone being Z-shaped in transverse cross-section. A tear strip (filament tape) is positioned along each zone, between the middle and one leg of the Z. The tear strip is pulled to sever the Z at the junction of the middle and one leg and thereby separate the package or carton into two portions. The remaining middle and other leg of the Z forms an edge hem for one of the two separated package or container portions. The hem edge is thus defined by a smooth rim. In one application of the invention, a paper towel roll package is provided with two Z-shaped zones around its circumference. After ripping both Z zones, that portion of the package originally between them is discarded, and two trays for display the paper towel rolls are defined. Kraft paper or paperboard forms the package or container. The invention may also be applied to multiple package carriers, i.e., carriers for cans, for easy container opening and access. The invention also may be applied to a folding carton of rectangular form or a round paperboard can, with the Z fold and tear strip providing a reclosable lid.
