Carrier stock for side wall application

Abstract From the Canadian patent

Carrier stock formed from a single sheet of resilient polymeric material, such as low density polyethylene, for machine application to side walls of substantially identical containers. Integrally joined band segments defining separate apertures to receive the individual containers include longitudinal cross, and, diagonal segments.
