To provide a packaging container which copes with an environmental problem in terms of disposal and incineration, etc., and contributes to a cost reduction.

A container main body 105 formed from a sheet-like paper so as to follow the shape of the bottom face of a gas cookery stove mat 101 as its contents has a print area 111, where directions for use and so on are printed, in the part which is exposed so as to coincide with the opening 109 of the gas cookery stove mat 101. Even if the gas cookery stove mat 101 is packaged in a lid 107 formed into a pair with the container main body 105, the gas cookery stove mat 101 is visible and the print area 111 of the container main body 105 is also visible because the lid 107 is made of transparent plastic. This eliminates the need for an extra paper-label, and enables the container main body 105 to have a label function by the print area 111.
