An enclosure assembly (1), and method of assembling transportation packaging therefrom, which is adapted to be supported on a container (2) and in situ the enclosure assembly encloses a region above the container, said enclosure assembly comprising co-operable attachment means (3, 7), the arrangement of the enclosure assembly being such that in use the attachment means of a first enclosure assembly which is supported on a container is engaged with the attachment means of a second enclosure assembly, said enclosure assemblies forming a stack in which the second enclosure assembly encloses a region above the first enclosure assembly. Advantageously, the enclosure assemblies can be stacked together to form a substantially rigid structure above the container according to the height of the goods in the container.

The invention claimed is: 1. Packaging, comprising: at least two enclosure assemblies which are adapted to be supported on a container and in situ the enclosure assemblies enclose a region above the container, each enclosure assembly comprising co-operable attachment means and handle means, an arrangement of a first enclosure assembly being such that the attachment means of the first enclosure assembly which is adapted to be supported on a container is engaged with the attachment means of a second enclosure assembly, aid enclosure assemblies forming a stack in which the second enclosure assembly encloses a region above the first enclosure assembly, each enclosure assembly being characterized in that a first part of the attachment means comprises protrusion means and a second art of the attachment means comprises protrusion receiving means, the protrusion receiving means being provided by a space which is sized to allow the fingers of a person to pass therethrough, and the space being provided below the handle means, the enclosure assemblies having a substantially tubular form defined by two side walls and two end walls that determine a first margin and a second margin of the assemblies at respective first and second distal ends thereof, the assemblies having openings at the distal ends, the openings being at least as large as the first margin and second margin, respectively, wherein the protrusion means is arranged to be moved generally laterally outwardly of one assembly so as to disengage the a attachment means of two such assemblies, each enclosure assembly further comprising a locating tab extending from each of the walls at the first margin, and a tab receiving recess provided in each of the walls at the second margin, and the locating tab and the tab receiving recesses arranged such that one of the tabs and the recesses of the first enclosure assembly locate with one of the recesses and tabs, respectively, of the second enclosure assembly. 2. Packaging as claimed in claim 1, wherein in each enclosure assembly the first art of the attachment means is spaced from the second part of the attachment means in the direction of the height of the enclosure assembly. 3. Packaging as claimed in claim 2, wherein in each enclosure assembly the first part of the attachment means and the second part of the attachment means are located towards respective distal ends of the enclosure assembly. 4. Packaging as claimed in claim 3, wherein in each enclosure assembly the first art of the attachment means is located towards a lowermost margin of the enclosure assembly and the second part of the attachment means is located towards an uppermost margin of the enclosure assembly. 5. Packaging as claimed in claim 1, wherein the first part of the attachment means of one enclosure assembly is adapted to be engaged with the second part of the attachment means of another assembly. 6. Packaging as claimed in claim 1 in which engagement between the first part of the attachment means and the second part of the attachment means is by way of a male-to-female engagement. 7. Packaging as claimed in claim 1 in which the first part of the attachment means of the first enclosure assembly is adapted to engage with the container so that the first enclosure assembly is secured to the container to enclose a region above said container. 8. Packaging as claimed in claim 1 in which the protrusion means is of a tapered profile. 9. Packaging as claimed in claim 8 in which the tapered profile widens laterally of the enclosure assembly with increasing height of the enclosure assembly. 10. Packaging as claimed in claim 1 in which the protrusion means is provided secured to a resilient portion. 11. Packaging as claimed in claim 10 in which the resilient portion extends generally downwards of the enclosure assembly. 12. Packaging as claimed in claim 1, wherein each enclosure assembly is of oblong rectangular shape, protrusion means being provided on opposite sides of each enclosure assembly. 13. Packaging as claimed in claim 1 wherein the first enclosure assembly comprises enclosure assembly attachment means and container attachment means, the enclosure assembly attachment means being physically distinct from the container attachment means. 14. Packaging as claimed in claim 1 in which the attachment means of each enclosure assembly is such that the stack and the container may be lifted from the handle means.
