MULTI-PHASE DELIVERY COMPOSITIONS AND PRODUCTS INCORPORATING SUCH COMPOSITIONS
The present disclosure relates to compositions that are useful in the delivery of various materials. In particular, the compositions comprise a suspension wherein an internal phase material is surrounded by an external phase material. The internal phase specifically can be a hydrophilic material, and the external phase specifically can be a hydrophobic material. The materials are combined so that the internal phase is substantially encapsulated by the external phase such that release can be controlled in relation to osmotic pressure differentials. The suspension can be combined with a carrier, and various systems and products can be formed with the suspension and optional carrier, such as oral strips, spray delivery systems, smokeless tobacco products, aerosol delivery devices, cigarettes, and packaging.
APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR HOLDING PRODUCTS
In the specification and drawings an apparatus and method for holding a product is described and shown with a humidor; a pusher mechanism located within the humidor, the pusher mechanism having a width adjustable channel; and a plurality of cigar tubos located within the channel.

RESEALABLE CONTAININER INCLUDING EASY OPEN TAB
A container comprises a housing that comprises a box and a lid that is hingedly attached to the box. The lid comprises a bottom edge. The box comprises a front wall and a rear wall. The container also comprises an inner package disposed at least partially within the housing and at least partially defining an interior volume for housing consumer goods. The inner package is configured to open and close when the lid of the housing is opened and closed. The inner package comprises an access opening and a sealing flap. The sealing flap comprises a tab that has a bottom edge. The bottom edge of the tab is positioned below the bottom edge of the lid when the lid is in a closed position.
Container for smokeless tobacco products
A container adapted for storing a product includes a body having a bottom wall and a side wall. The bottom wall and the side wall define an internal storage compartment adapted for storage of a product. The side wall has an outer peripheral surface. A cover is configured to be removably engaged with the body. The cover includes a top wall and a peripheral flange having an inner surface. The inner surface is configured to interact with the base when the cover is received over the outer peripheral surface of the side wall so as to form an interface. A label is configured to substantially cover the interface, wherein the label includes a tear thread positioned between an outer surface of the container and a rear surface of the label and located substantially at the interface of the cover and the body.
Rigid box for smoking articles and respective production method
Rigid box for smoking articles having a parallelepiped shape and provided with: a first panel which defines a top wall; a second panel which is folded 90 with respect to the first panel and defines a first lateral wall; a third panel which is folded 90 with respect to the second panel and defines a bottom wall; a fourth panel which is folded 90 with respect to the third panel and defines a second lateral wall opposite the first lateral wall; a fifth panel which is folded 90 with respect to the fourth panel and rests on an inner surface of the first panel; a sixth panel which is folded 90 with respect to the fifth panel and divides the inner volume of the rigid box; and a seventh panel which is folded 90 with respect to the sixth panel and rests on an inner surface of the third panel.

Container For Consumer Goods With Reclosable Flap
A container for consumer goods, such as smoking articles, includes an outer housing with a hinged lid that houses an inner package of consumer goods. The inner package has an access opening through which consumer goods can be removed and that is covered by a reclosable flap, which is attached to a first lid panel that is relatively movable to a second lid panel throughout rotation of the lid between lid open and closed positions. Blanks for forming the outer housing and a method of forming the container are also provided.
Thin wall product display tube
A thin-walled polypropylene product display tube. The thin-walled polypropylene product display tube includes a tubular member having a closed end, an open end, an inner diameter and, between the closed end and the open end, a first outer diameter, the open end terminating in a flared portion having a second outer diameter, the tubular member having a wall thickness sufficient to yield a level of haze equal to or less than 8%. A process for forming a thin-walled polypropylene product display tube is also provided.
