A recyclable package for a plurality of rolls of magnetic tape, comprising:
- (a) a plurality of packaging components made of a biodegradable or reusable material for enclosing said plurality of rolls of magnetic tape, wherein the magnetic tape of each roll is wound on a ring core, and said rolls are stacked;
- and
- (b) means for holding said components together in an assembly providing an enclosure of the stack of rolls, which means includes a hollow, generally cylindrical central hub having an exterior surface accommodating the cylindrical surface formed by the stacked ring cores, and which means further includes a band of packaging tape extending through said hub and a plurality of spacers on opposed ends of said hub, which spacers extend to the exterior of said assembly.
A recyclable package for a stack of rolls of magnetic tape, comprising:
- (a) a pair of packaging components made of paperboard for enclosing a stack of rolls of magnetic tape the magnetic tape being wound on a ring core in each roll;
- and
- (b) means for holding said pair of components together in mating relationship in an assembly providing an enclosure for said stack of rolls, which means includes a hollow, generally cylindrical central hub of paperboard having an exterior surface accommodating the cylindrical surface formed by the stack of ring cores, and which means further includes a strapping band extending through said hub.
