The present invention relates to a shipping container for rolled goods, particularly relatively heavy and rigid rolled products such as high count rolls of trash bags. In at least one embodiment, the shipping container may be used for shipping a product enclosure containing a pair of rolled trash bags. The shipping container can include a pair of opposing side reinforcing trays to prevent damage to the shipping container when in transit. The invention can conserve the amount of materials used and reduce the shipping weight of the container. The shipping container can further include a flexible overwrap to maintain the reinforcement trays on the opposing side ends of the product enclosure and to provide for additional reinforcement to the shipping container.

The bottle safety seal may comprise a safety seal that covers the top of a bottle. The safety seal may prevent contaminants from collecting on exposed non-vertical surfaces of the bottle. As non-limiting examples, the contaminants may be from storing the bottle in a warehouse or other storage area where the bottle may be exposed to dust, dirt, spilled liquids, and other substances. The safety seal may be separable from the bottle such that the safety seal may be removed from the bottle prior to pouring or drinking from the bottle. As non-limiting examples, the bottle may be a water bottle, a wine bottle, a soda bottle, or a juice bottle. The bottle safety seal may be particularly suitable for use on 5 gallon water cooler bottles which may present larger exposed surface areas and may spend longer periods of time in storage before being used.

To provide a spouted pouch with a simple structure and improved self-standing ability of the pouch body. The spouted pouch 10 is configured to dispense a liquid content from a spout 60 attached to a side face of a pouch body 20 in a state placed with a pouch bottom 20a down. The pouch body 20 further includes a first shape-controlling seal portion 24 formed by heat sealing a first film 30 and a side film 40 together at a location on an inner side of a first side seal 23a in the left-right direction. The first shape-controlling seal portion 24 has an area located in a region between an upper half of a spout fixture portion 32 and the first side seals 23a, and does not have an area located below the center in the up-down direction of the spout fixture portion 32.

A container includes a container main body that is composed of a main-body forming sheet member and surrounds a containing portion, wherein the container main body includes a first surface portion, a second surface portion that is arranged so as to face the first surface portion with the containing portion being arranged therebetween, and a gusset portion which connects the first surface portion and the second surface portion to each other. The gusset portion is provided with a discharge port that discharges a contents from the containing portion. The main-body forming sheet member includes a main-body sealing portion in which a plurality of film layers are attached to each other, a non-attached region in which the plurality of film layers are partially non-attached to each other, and a filling portion in which a filler can be enclosed between layers of the plurality of film layers in the non-attached region.

A sheet member container having one or more sheet members including a main-body forming sheet member in which a plurality of film layers including an inner film layer and an outer film layer are stacked; a containing portion that accommodates contents; a container main body including the main-body forming sheet member, and surrounding the containing portion; and a peripheral edge sealing portion in which the one or more sheet members are folded along a folding line, and peripheral edge portions of the one or more sheet members are attached to each other.

The present patent application relates to a method of manufacturing a multilayered composite film comprising a step of co-extruding at least three layers (a), (b) and (c), of which the layer (a) forms an outward surface of the composite film; the layer (c) forms a surface of the composite film facing or coming in contact with a good to be packaged; and the layer (b) is disposed between the layer (a) and the layer (c). Further, the method includes a step of biaxial orientation of the composite film thus co-extruded. Therein, the layer (a) contains or consists of a thermoplastic resin. The layer (b) contains or consists of a polyvinylidene chloride (PVdC) resin. The layer (c) contains or consists of a resin, preferably sealable, in particular heat-sealable resin. Therein, any crosslinking of the composite film by means of radioactive radiation, in particular by means of beta, gamma, X-ray and/or electron irradiation, is omitted during the manufacturing of the composite film and/or thereafter.

The present disclosure is directed to a flexible pouch. In an embodiment, a flexible pouch is provided and includes opposing flexible laminates sealed along a common peripheral edge to form a storage compartment. Each flexible laminate has at least three layers comprising (A) a seal layer, (B) an outermost layer, and (C) an adhesive layer between the seal layer and the outer layer. The adhesive layer comprises a solvent-free polyurethane adhesive composition. An alcoholic beverage is present in the storage compartment. The flexible pouch has a solvent residue less than 1.0 mg/m.sup.2, and a bond strength greater than 200 gm/15 mm after a 60-day liquor resistance test.

A sheet member container including one or more sheet members, including a main-body forming sheet member having an outer film layer and an inner film layer laminated on each other. The sheet member container has a containing portion that accommodates contents, a container main body including the main-body forming sheet member, and a peripheral edge sealing portion in which the one or more sheet members are folded along a folding line.

The present disclosure provides for a multilayer film having a sealant layer and a first layer, where the first layer is formed from a first polyolefin composition, and a laminate that includes the multilayer film. The first polyolefin composition of the first layer consists essentially of a high density polyethylene (HDPE) resin and a propylene-ethylene copolymer thermoplastic elastomer (TPE). In addition to the first layer of the first polyolefin composition and the sealant layer, the laminate also includes a substrate film and an adhesive layer comprising polyurethane in adhering contact with the substrate film and the first layer, where when the adhesive layer is formed from a solvent-free adhesive the adhesive layer has an elastic modulus of greater than 25 MPa, and when the adhesive layer is formed from a solvent-based adhesive the adhesive layer has an elastic modulus of greater than 0.30 MPa, the elastic modulus being measured for the polyurethane in accordance with ASTM D412.

Non-durable self-supporting flexible containers having product volumes and structural support frames are provided with vents to facilitate equalization of the pressure inside the product volume to the pressure of the environment outside of the containers. The vents enable rapid recovery of the structural support from a deformed state, which occurs when a fluent product is dispensed, to an undeformed state. For this purpose, the vents comprise vent paths between the environment outside of the containers and the product volume. The vents may further comprise a non-wetting material surrounding the entrance and exit of the vent path and/or microtexturing or a spacer to maintain space for air flow in the vent path.
