Abstract
A packaging container with a base and a cover hinged together is provided. Base and cover are hinged together by first and second cooperating formations formed integrally with the base and the cover. One of the first and second cooperating formations provide sockets and the other cooperating formations provide pin portions removably receivable in the sockets to be rotatable therein to allow the cover to be rotated relative to the base between an open position and a closed position. Number and locations of the first and second formations are such that one or more are used for hinging, while others provide structural support between the base and the cover when the container is in the closed position.
