[Class 18] A framework for packing fragile articles comprises a plurality of open ended boxlike cells secured together in line, wall-towall, the framework being collapsable concertina fashion by bringing together two diagonally opposite corner edges of each cell e.g. edges 7, 7<SP>1</SP> and 15, 14 and by folding together normally aligned walls of adjacent cells e.g. walls 4, 11. Each cell may be formed from a rectangular strip of cardboard or other material as in Fig. 4 or a pair of cells may be formed from a single strip as depicted in Fig. 5, the terminal portion or portions of the strip being bent into the cell or cells to form an article engaging flap 6.
