Package assemblies for containers

A container package assembly comprising:

• a) a first layer of containers further comprising:
• i) a continuous, planar corrugated base member;
• ii) an array of containers, the containers having a container base and a container top, said containers being removably secured to the base member by frangible adhesive;
• b) at least one additional layer of containers, said at least one additional layer further comprising;
• i) a continuous, planar, corrugated intermediate member, said intermediate member being of the same size and dimensions as the base member;
• ii) an array of containers, the containers having a container base and a container top, said containers being removably secured to the base member by frangible adhesive;
• c) a cover member placed over said layers of containers, said cover member being the same size as the base member and intermediate member, whereby the base member, intermediate member and cover member are all the same size;
• and
• d) a film of plastic material passing over the containers, the cover member, the intermediate member and the base member and secured to itself, to further secure the containers in assembly therewith, the layers of containers being removable from the assembly by removing the plastic film and cover member and separating said layers of containers.

A container package assembly comprising:

• a) a first layer of containers further comprising:
• i) a continuous, planar corrugated base member;
• ii) at least one strip of frangible adhesive on the base member;
• iii) at least one row of containers, the containers having a container base and a container top having an outer rim, wherein the container base is smaller than the container top, and the container has a large height and weight relative to the size of the container base, said containers being removably secured to the base member by said strip of adhesive;
• b) at least one additional layer of containers, said at least one additional layer further comprising:
• i) a continuous, planar, corrugated intermediate pad, said intermediate pad being of the same size and dimensions as the base member;
• ii) at least one strip of frangible adhesive on the intermediate pad;
• iii) at least one row of containers, the containers having a container base and a container top having an outer rim, wherein the container base is smaller than the container top, and the container has a large height and weight relative to the size of the container base, said containers being removably secured to the intermediate pad by said strip of adhesive;
• c) a cover member placed over said layers of containers, the dimensions of said cover member being such that the cover member lies within an outer perimeter of said layer of containers and uncovered surfaces of said containers extend beyond the cover member and wherein the base member, intermediate member and cover member are all the same size;
• and
• d) a film of plastic material passing over the containers, the cover member, the intermediate pad and the base member and secured to itself, to further secure the containers in assembly therewith, the layers of containers being removable from the assembly by removing the plastic film and cover member and separating said layers of containers, and said containers being removable from the layers of containers by separating the containers from the base member or intermediate pad by breaking the frangible adhesive with force to each container.
