first embodiment

[0024]Referring to FIG. 4, there is shown a portion of side wall 52 comprising a first and a second planar sheet 60, 62 of cardboard which sandwich a corrugated sheet 64 of cardboard thereinbetween. It will be understood by those skilled in the art, that the bottom wall, side walls 52 and lid 58 of box 50 may be made up from any number of a plurality of planar and corrugated sheets that are layered and bonded together to form a unitary member of the required strength, without departing from the spirit of the present invention. The following illustrations show a box wall 52 made from two planar sheets and one corrugated sheet for the sake of clarity only. FIG. 4 illustrates the side wall 52 in which one or more of sheets 60, 62 and 64 are impregnated with a protective material as will be hereinafter described.

second embodiment

[0025]FIG. 4A shows side wall 152 that includes layer of protective material 166 therein. In this instance, layer 166 is applied over second sheet 162 and, because second sheet 162 forms the exterior surface of side wail 152, protective layer 166 forms the external surface of the storage box.

third embodiment

[0026]Referring to FIG. 4B, there is shown a side wall of the box, being generally indicated at 252. Side wall 252 comprises first and second planar sheets 260, 262 of cardboard which sandwich a corrugated layer 264 thereinbetween. Protective layer 266 is applied over first sheet 260 and thus forms the interior surface of the box in accordance with the present invention.

Abstract

A packaging article for protectively storing perishable paper products that includes protective materials that protect the packaging article and its contents from any of a number of threats including water damage, fire damage, mold, insects, bacteria, fungi and theft. The packaging article comprises a bottom wall, side walls and a closure that surround and define an interior cavity in which the paper products are stored or transported. Each of the bottom wall, side walls and closure are made from a plurality of layers. Protective materials are applied to one or more of the bottom wall, side walls and closures by either impregnating a paper or cardboard with a suitable chemical, applying a film thereover, spraying a coating thereover or sandwiching the protective material between two adjacent layers. Suitable chemicals that produce the desired properties include, but are not limited to wax, oil, plastic, polybrominated diphenyl ether, polybrominated biphenyl, brominated cyclohydrocarbons, boric acid and hydrogen peroxide. A radio frequency identification tag may also be received within the wall of the packaging article to protect the same against theft.
