    Abstract: Packaging may include a base box having a cavity to receive a product, and a first paper spring extending from an interior of a first sidewall of the base box and a second paper spring extending from an opposing interior of a second sidewall of the base box. Each of the first and second paper springs may be formed from the same blank as the first sidewall. The first and second springs are flexible such that the cavity may accommodate products of different lengths, and may resiliently absorb vibrations or impact forces during shipping.

    Abstract: Packaging with a locking mechanism is provided, such as for finished goods packaging, such that a lid and base box may be secured together in a closed configuration. An interlocking ripcord mechanical lock may include a slot and tab style ripcord that is integrated into the packaging. As an example, packaging using corrugated material may utilize the corrugated material thickness to lock the tab record inside an opening such as a slot, such that the base box is retained and coupled to the lid, thereby preventing the base box from sliding out from the lid if a user except packaging by the lid. Once the ripcord is removed, is removed, the mechanical lock is thereby released from the base and lid, allowing the customer to open the packaging.
