Collapsible container

A container having an assembled state and a collapsed state, comprising

• a first plurality of strips which in the assembled state forms a base surface and at least one end wall of the container;
• a second plurality of strips which in the assembled state forms at least one sidewall of the container, the sidewall being perpendicular to the base surface in the assembled state;
• at least one first through-connection which unites the first plurality of strips;
• and
• at least one second through-connection which unites the second plurality of strips;
• wherein the first plurality of strips and the second plurality of strips each have individual, separate strips, wherein each strip has a strip length and a strip width, with the strip length being greater than the strip width, wherein the first plurality of strips and the second plurality of strips are arranged with their strip lengths aligned in the same direction (HR), wherein the length of each strip in the second plurality of strips is co-linear with the length of a strip in the first plurality of strips, wherein each strip has opposing edges along the width, and wherein adjacent width edges of at least one strip in the second plurality of strips and at least one strip in the first plurality of strips are connected, and
• wherein the container in the assembled state comprises a height, a length and a width, and the container in the collapsed state can essentially be reduced to the container width.
