Abstract

Board multipack for at least four tub-like objects with rims that are arranged in two rows, with a top panel (2), two side panels (5,6) and a base panel which consists of two sections (9,10) that overlap. The outer of the two base sections is provided with a tab (17) which is die-cut from the section (10) and is hinged to the same along a folding line. The inner base section (9) has two hinged flaps (13,14) that each have a cut-out section (15,16) in the middle, which the tab (17) engages and locks with.
