Abstract: A display carton comprises a one-piece blank cut and scored to form vertically disposed front, back and side panels and horizontally disposed top and bottom panels. A vertically disposed separate partition is further disposed intermediate the side panels and is attached to the front, back and bottom panels by lock tabs engaging accommodating slots formed through the panels. A continuous tear line is formed in the front, back, side, and top panels to divide the carton into a removable upper section and a lower section adapted to retain a plurality of upstanding packages therein for display purposes.

Abstract: A bag-type liner is applied interiorly of a container, such as a corrugated carton or box, by inserting an open end of the liner over an open end of the container and thereafter creating a vacuum within the container and liner to simultaneously draw the liner within the container. In a first apparatus embodiment of this invention, the vacuum is created by moving a partially opened bottom of the container over a vacuum opening formed in the platen. In a second apparatus embodiment of this invention, a pair of vacuum plenums are movably mounted adjacent to sides and upper portions of the container to draw the vacuum over and between upper closure flaps connected to the container.
