Abstract
Packaging for a wound coil is formed from a single piece of cardboard or plastic. The packaging includes a central support having a width substantially equal to the width of the coil, first and second side elements attached to and rotatable relative to the central support and defining cutouts so that the side elements may rotate to extend over a portion of the wound coil with a portion of the side elements meeting and being fastened to each other at a location substantially half-way along the width of the coil, and a handle section with first and second handle portions attached and rotatable relative the side elements. The handle section can assume a first position defines a hand-hold, and a second position substantially parallel to the central support. With the packaging, one package and coil assembly can be stacked atop another.
