According to one aspect, a packaging comprises a substrate comprising a first panel including a first end, a second end spaced a first distance from the first end, and opposing first and second perimeter side edges extending the first distance between the first end and the second end. The entire first panel is symmetric about a first longitudinal axis thereof extending between the first end and the second end and each of the first and second perimeter side edges is disposed at first and second widths, respectively, from the first longitudinal axis at a first portion of the first panel. The first portion is disposed at least one of at the second end and proximal the second end and the first portion has a longitudinal extent along the first longitudinal axis less than the first distance. Each of the first and second perimeter side edges is disposed at third and fourth widths, respectively, from the first longitudinal axis at a second portion of the first panel spaced from the first portion wherein the first and second widths are greater than the third and fourth widths, respectively. A second panel includes a third end, a fourth end spaced from the third end, and a third portion disposed between the third end and the fourth end. The second end is coupled to the third end at a first fold line and the second panel has a length along a second longitudinal axis parallel to the first longitudinal axis greater than a width extent of the second panel perpendicular to the second longitudinal axis. A tongue extends between the third portion and the first panel and the entire first panel is substantially symmetric with respect to at least a portion of the second panel about the first fold line. Further, an adhesive is on the tongue and adapted to couple the first panel to the second panel.

A twist-tie dispenser refill comprises a twist-tie cluster and a base. The twist-tie cluster includes a top cluster portion. The base includes a top portion, which is generally U-shaped and forms an opening configured and arranged to receive the top cluster portion of the twist-tie cluster. The base also includes a rear portion that defines mounting members used for mounting the base to a fixture.

A trapped tray product packaging having a paperboard or a molded pulp tray trapped between a first panel and a second panel is provided. The first panel has an opening for placement of the tray. The tray includes a lip that is trapped between the first panel and the second panel. The first and second panels can be formed from paperboard.

A data structure embodied on a computer-readable medium is disclosed. The data structure may include database schema such as a structured query language (SQL) database. The database schema may include a tiered reward schema that cooperates with a competition schema to reward contestants based on their status in the tiered reward schema. The tiered reward schema may encourage contestants that introduce and promote new songs and artist via their virtual or digital record label.

The invention relates to a polymer blend comprising 15 to 70 Wt. % of polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) and/or of a PVOH copolymer as well as 30 to 85 Wt. % of a further polymer, to a method for preparing a polymer blend, to the use of a polymer blend for producing a packaging material and to a packaging material. The packaging material obtained from the polymer blend is characterized in particular by a low gas permeability and can be produced by means of cost-effective methods.

A disposable package is configured to promote recycling of its component parts. A thermoformed thermoplastic blister has front and back product bubbles which extend from a peripheral flange and are hinged together to be folded into a product compartment such that the product bubbles extend through openings in front and back cards. The front card is affixed to the back card to close the product bubble and so as not to adhere to the blister flanges. A front extraction tab extends from the peripheral flange and is accessible on two opposed sides for gripping by a user to engage and remove the blister from the front card and the back card.

A saw blade holder may include a first guard member which may include a first groove configured to receive a first portion of an edge of a saw blade, a second guard member which may include a second groove configured to receive a second portion of the edge of the saw blade, a hinge that may be configured to couple the first guard member to the second guard member such that the first guard member may rotate relative to the second guard member to transition the saw blade holder between an open position and a closed position, and a locking member that may be affixed to one of the first guard member or the second guard member, the locking member may be configured to move into a locked position to secure the first guard member to the second guard member when the saw blade holder is in the closed position.

A hardware merchandise carrying device is adapted to hold at least one hardware merchandise that has a positioning portion, and includes at least one holding seat that has a main seat body, two elastic arm members, and first and second connecting units. The elastic arm members are adapted to be removably coupled to the at least one hardware merchandise. Each elastic arm member extends from the main seat body, and has an engaging portion adapted to engage the positioning portion of the at least one hardware merchandise. The first and second connecting units are disposed on the main seat body. The second connecting unit is adapted for engaging the first connecting unit of another holding seat.

A package containing a stack of folded disposable absorbent articles, the package being formed of flexible polymeric film, and having a path of perforations or scoring defining a hood opening structure, is disclosed. The hood opening structure may be configured to open proximate the fold noses of the articles for easy tactile identification, grasping and withdrawal of individual ones thereof, and may be configured so as to serve as an effective package reclosure device whereby the package may be used to store the unused supply of articles following opening. The package, and printed commercial artwork and product information on the package surfaces, may be configured such that the fold noses are disposed at the apparent bottom of the package, for improved standing stability when the package is shelved.
