A consumable for an aerosol generating device, comprising: a heating element comprising a base portion and a plurality of elongate portions extending from the base portion; and a columnar portion of aerosol generation substrate, the columnar portion being formed from a strip of aerosol generation substrate, wherein an axial portion of the strip extends through a gap between a pair of the elongate portions of the heating element, and the strip is wound around the heating element.

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a covering structure for a cardboard package comprising a tubular body made up a cardboard material. The covering structure comprises a flat assembly of three materials: (1) a cellulosic material covered with a reactivatable barrier material over the face thereof oriented towards a safety membrane, making up a lid cardboard, (2) a laminating part arranged between said lid cardboard and the safety membrane, with a shape conjugated to the shape of the opening of the tubular body, made from paper, or paper whereof the face oriented towards said lid cardboard is coated with a material having barrier and sealing properties, and (3) a safety membrane, made up of a paper coated with at least one reactivatable barrier material on the surface thereof not oriented towards the laminating part.

The invention concerns an elongated protective corner for the transport and/or packaging of products. The corner has at least two non-corrugated paperboard plies combined together to create two perpendicular wings and an apex. The plies form multiple ply sections, and at least one of the ply sections of a given ply overlaps another ply section of the same ply. This overlapping arrangement gives the apex a resistance force of about 100 to about 500 lbs. The thickness of the corner can vary, with each wing being in the range of about 100 to about 250 points, and each ply is made from paperboard having a grammage of about 120 to about 380 g/m.sup.2. The resistance force can be determined by mounting the corner upon two blocks, and applying a force to the apex at a middle of the corner until a fracture is detected.

A machine for converting a sheet stock material into a relatively less dense dunnage product includes both (a) a helical pre-form assembly having a cylindrical mandrel with a longitudinal axis and a guide member for guiding the sheet stock material from a supply thereof into a helical path along and around the mandrel so as to form a helical pre-form that rotates around the longitudinal axis and advances parallel to the longitudinal axis; and (b) a restriction in the path of the pre-form that slows the advance and rotation of the pre-form past the restriction, the restriction causing the pre-form to retard longitudinal advancement, to twist upon itself, and to permanently deform as it moves past the restriction, thereby longitudinally and helically crumpling the pre-form.

An insert made of corrugated paper is easily assembled, uses no glue, allows shipping of glass, such as stemware, in any orientation, reduces packing material and reduces shipping costs. In addition, customers receiving the glass can easily unpack the glass and reuse the insert for storing the glass, as the insert can be opened and closed without ripping. The insert has multiple cutouts matching a profile of a bowl of the glass. U-shaped channels are formed by folding the insert along scored lines. The U-shaped channels maintain the glass away from a side of a box in which the insert is placed. The edges of the corrugated paper along the multiple cutouts envelope the bowl of the glass and remove weight and any potential shock that can be transmitted to the glass.
