Abstract

See full text

The cardboard container (100) comprises a base wall (B) and two lateral walls (L1, L2), in a single body with the base wall (B) and foldable with respect thereto, so as to enable the container (100) to assume a flat configuration (I) and an opened-out configuration (V). The container (100) further comprises at least a tab (1), in a single body with a first lateral wall (L1), at a first transversal edge (L11) thereof. The tab (1) has a shape that is such that it exhibits a series of portions (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17) that are foldable with respect to one another, and such that two of the portions are connected to the first lateral wall (L1) at two different positions (P1, P2) such that when the container is placed in the opened-out configuration (V), the various portions of the tab (1) fold with respect to the first lateral wall (L1) and reciprocally one respect to the others in such a way as to define three seatings (S1, S2, S3) each of which has a shape that is suitable for receiving a corresponding bottle, with the bottom of each bottle going to rest on the base wall (B) and with each bottle being surrounded and protected between the respective portions of the tab (1) and the first lateral wall (L1).
