Packaging for prosthetic heart valves including an assembly for stabilizing dry prosthetic tissue implants such as heart valves during storage. The packaging assembly can be used for storing a bioprosthetic heart valve without a liquid preservative solution. The packaging assembly can have a valve holder configured for removably attaching a bioprosthetic heart valve, a storage tray comprising an open end and a cavity, and a retaining member configured for removably attaching the valve holder. The retaining member can be generally planar and have a slot having a closed end and an open outer end. The valve holder can be configured to be retained at the closed end of the slot in the retaining member.

The present invention refers to a plastic film for cling film application packed in a box, and a box comprising such a film.

A valuables-holding device in the form of a booklet which appears, when closed, to be an ordinary compositional notebook or pocket diary has a flange or transparent overlay extending around three sides of the inside front cover. A flexible covering plate, with its edge secured to the spine of the booklet, has its free edge capable of being slid behind the overlay. This will cover the space between the back of the covering plate and the inside surface of the front cover of the booklet. The covering plate can be slid out of the overlay, too, to expose that space. Secured to the inside of the front cover is a credit card organizer. The front cover and the covering plate are both preferably formed with a thin sheet of metal. Thus, the space between those components is electronically sealed or blocked from an RFID reader. The covering plate includes a slot for sliding paper money therethrough and into the space between the back of the credit card organizer and the inside surface of the front cover.

In the present invention, a package for supporting at least one consumable product is provided. The package includes a support member for supporting the at least one consumable product, a flexible package for enclosing the support member and the at least one product, and a closure mechanism configured to transit the package between open and closed positions. The flexible package has a line of weakness and a flap defined and positioned near an area formed by the line of weakness. When the flap is pulled, it ruptures the line of weakness and creates an opening to allow access to the at least one consumable product.

A sectional packaging box for packaging a product includes two side panels and two bendable end connectors. The two side panels each define a notch and are oppositely arranged. The two bendable end connectors each define two long slots and are oppositely arranged. The two side panels and the two end connectors cooperatively form an enclosed space. The two side panels latch within the long slots, and the two end connectors. An end of the two end connectors latch within the notches.

In some examples, a medical device package may include a tray and a lip. The tray defines a recess configured to receive an elongated medical device in a coiled state. The lip is configured to cover at least a portion of the recess. The lip and tray define a mouth to the recess. The tray and lip define an opening configured to expose the elongated medical device when the elongated medical device is received in the recess. The mouth is configured to facilitate removal of the elongated medical device from the recess through the opening while the elongated medical device is in the coiled state.

The container includes a lower wall and an erect side wall limiting an upper opening of a housing for accommodating a flexible pouch containing a fluid; containment elements including a containment wall, the gap between its peripheral edge and the side wall being limited; the containment wall adapted to be applied against the pouch and held fixed in this position by holding elements arranged in the container and borne by the containment elements by a structural and functional combination, and being movable between an inactive retracted state and an active expanded state, in which a distal end part is either moved away from the side wall or applied there against without any chance of sliding; and adapted to be applied at any desired location of a zone of the side wall such that the containment wall can be applied and held against the pouch regardless of how full the latter is.

There is provided a pack which has interconnected side panels (11), (12) defining a volume for receiving a product (25). The pack has an opening at one end which is at least partially closed with a non-return end closure mechanism in the form of a flap (17). The product (25) can be pushed past the flap into said volume, but cannot be removed without distorting the flap (17).

Package (1) for beverages having an alcoholic contents (B) comprising: a wood barrel (2) configured for containing a predetermined quantity of an alcoholic beverage (B), at least one jacket (4) made of a plastic material film engaged outside the barrel (2) for covering at least a preponderant part of a lateral wall (2c) of the barrel itself, the jacket (4) comprises an elastically deformable tubular element (5) fitted at least partially around the lateral wall (2c) and exhibiting at least one elastically deformed portion intimately adhering to the barrel (2) lateral wall (2c); further an apparatus and process for making the package (1) by applying on the barrel (2) the jacket (4) having the shape of a first and second shells (7, 10) opposite to each other, are described.

A method for sealing a thermoplastic bag includes forming a first fold in a top end of the bag; forming a second fold in the top end that includes the first fold; folding the first fold to form a first portion of the first fold and a second portion of the first fold, the second portion of the first fold is folded onto the first portion of the first fold; and heat sealing the first fold and the second fold to each other and to a portion of the bag that faces the first fold, the heat sealing including applying hot air to the bag. Preferably the second fold has a height that is less than a height of the first fold such that the forming of the second fold folds the first fold to form the first and second portions of the first fold.
