Packaging

Abstract

A method of forming packaging accommodates one or more products and packaging produced by the method. The method includes providing a planar packaging blank of foldable material and assembling it into packaging capable of accommodating at least one product. A flexible electronics module on the packaging blank has at least one temperature measurement device and a temperature display to measure and display the temperature of at least one of the products. The positioning of the flexible electronics module with respect to the packaging permits both to be folded together to form the assembled packaging. The packaging is foldable from a first unassembled state to a second assembled state to accommodate at least one product, and the electronics module is at least partly flexible to enable it to be folded with the packaging. The packaging may hold six beverage containers and might be considered to be a “six pack.”

1 . A method of forming packaging for accommodating one or more products, the method comprising:
 providing a planar packaging blank of foldable material, the blank folds into packaging to contain one or more products;   providing a flexible electronics module on said packaging blank, the electronics module comprising one or more temperature measurement devices for measuring a temperature of at least one of said products and a temperature display displaying the temperature of one or more of said products; and   positioning said flexible electronics module with respect to said packaging such that both can be folded together to form the assembled packaging.
