Abstract

A thermoformed plastic carton constructed from two half sections which are integrally connected along one side by a hingable joint to allow the half sections to be folded upon each other. The carton further includes resiliently deflectable latches extending up from an edge of one carton half which mate with and become lodged in a receptacle formed in the other carton half section when the carton half sections are folded one upon another.
