Block Carton

Abstract

A first surface and a second surface, wherein said first surface comprises a plurality of evenly distributed surface protrusions that correspond to cavities on the second surface, a rectangular lid face, and a rectangular bottom face which is connected to two opposed long side panels and two opposed short side panels and wherein the lid face and the bottom face are connected to each other via a side panel which is secured to a side edge on the bottom face and the lid face, respectively, wherein the lid face comprises one or more lid panels along the remaining side edges of the lid face, and wherein the side panels preferably comprise corner flaps arranged in correspondence with the corners of the bottom panel. Hereby a number of advantages are obtained from a production point of view, since a block carton is provided that enables even adhesion of the food substance to the block carton, said block carton exhibiting a larger surface than the prior art block cartons.

1 . A block carton, comprising:
 a first surface and a second surface, wherein said first surface comprises a plurality of evenly distributed surface protrusions that correspond to cavities on the second surface,   a rectangular lid face, and a rectangular bottom face that are connected to two opposed long side panels and two opposed short side panels, and wherein the lid face and the bottom face are connected to each other via a side panel which is secured to a side edge on the bottom face and the lid face, respectively, wherein the lid face comprises one or more lid panels along the remaining side edges of the lid face, and wherein the side panels preferably comprise corner flaps arranged in correspondence with the corners of the bottom panel, wherein the second surface comprises a plurality of evenly distributed surface protrusions that correspond to cavities on the first surface, whereby a crepped surface is accomplished.   
   
   
       2 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein the surface protrusions extend from alternatingly the first and the second surfaces. 
   
   
       3 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one of the surfaces comprises elongate surface protrusions; and that said elongate surface protrusions are oriented essentially in the same direction. 
   
   
       4 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein said elongate surface protrusions are oriented at an angle relative to each other. 
   
   
       5 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein at least one of the surfaces is coated with a varnish in a water-insoluble form. 
   
   
       6 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein the first coating is in the form of a varnish in a water-insoluble form; and wherein the second coating is a paraffin coating. 
   
   
       7 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein the first and the second coatings are in the form of a varnish in a water-insoluble form. 
   
   
       8 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein the first coating is thicker than the second coating. 
   
   
       9 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein each of the surfaces is configured with from two to 15 surface protrusions per cm 2 , and preferably four surface protrusions per cm 2 . 
   
   
       10 . A block carton according to  claim 1 , wherein the varnish is selected from among the group comprising water-soluble and settable/set varnishes.
