Abstract

A modular packaging (10) comprising at least two identical modular elements (1) which have no base and if necessary can be disassembled into straight side-pieces (14) and which are provided with mutually interfering means (4, 5) and at least one fixing member (3). These mutually interfering means (4, 5) are formed so that each stacked modular element (1) increases the height of the packaging (10) by at least two different amounts, depending on the way in which the modular element (1) is positioned at the top thereof, while the fixing members (3) ensure the stability thereof in each configuration. An apparatus required for handling a packaging (10) thus formed comprises at least one station (13) for assembling the modular elements (1) together and with a base (2) and a disassembly station (20) where the fixing members (3) are first removed and then the modular elements (1) separated from the base (2) and from one another.
