An improved wrap that is used in conjunction with beverages, especially those beverages that are placed into beverage holders. These wraps have a dual function of providing an enjoyable experience to the user by wicking away condensation and a protective barrier providing anti-microbial properties. The interior surface of the wrap is coated with materials that facilitate the absorption of moisture and the exterior of the wrap is coated with anti-bacterial agents. Embodiments of this improved wrap include the addition of advertising copy or coupons on the wrap and insulating materials that will keep the beverages hot or cold along with temperature sensitive inks that could warn the user that the beverage is hot or cold. Another embodiment will encompass fragrance that could add to the beverage enjoyment experience, such as wildflowers or lavender with certain teas.

A disposable sleeve for a container including a liner having inner and outer surfaces; a housing coupled to said inner surface of said liner with said housing defining a pocket and an opening to access said pocket; a heating element disposed within said pocket; and a cover disposed over said opening and coupled to said housing to enclose said pocket, wherein said cover is at least partially removable from said housing to uncover at least a portion of said opening and to enable activation of said heating element to generate heat upon exposure to air.

A sleeve for a beverage holder having a lid including an outer surface, a thermally resistant, textured inner surface, and a perforation forming a tab movable between a first position flush with the outer surface and a second position extending outwardly from the outer surface. The tab is adapted to hold the lid in the second position. A method of using the sleeve includes encompassing a beverage holder with the sleeve, folding the tab into the second position, and suspending a lid of the beverage holder on the tab. A method of producing the sleeve includes providing a tool having a handle, and a head having a blade and teeth, and punching the blade and the teeth of the head into the sleeve to form the perforation.

A grip enhancement device for deterring slippage of a handheld container within a hand of a user includes a band, which is resiliently stretchable and thus configured to be stretched for positioning the band around the handheld container. The band has inner and outer faces, which are textured. The inner face frictionally engages an outer surface of the handheld container upon rebounding of the band. The outer face frictionally engages the hand of the user upon gripping of the handheld container to deter slippage of the handheld container within the hand of the user.

This device is a flexible insulated beverage holder with a rigid arcuate plate and a rigid handle attached. This device allows a user to hold only the handle and insert a beverage container into the insulated beverage holder. This is achievable because the attached plate forces the insulated beverage holder to provide an expanded opening at its top. As the beverage is inserted into the opening created by the plate the user need only grip the handle as the beverage container is pushed to the bottom of the insulated beverage holder. This device provides the benefits of grasping a sturdy handle, while also providing significant portability with the flexible insulated beverage holder.

A receptacle having a wrap is configured to define a chamber for receiving a container. A pair of slots are formed in the wrap. A first connector is exposed through a first one of the slots and coupled to a surface of the wrap and a second connector exposed through a second one of the slots and coupled to the surface of the wrap.

A cup holder that includes a sleeve, which is expandable from a flat position to an open position, in which the sleeve is configured to receive a cup; and a handle having first and second ends coupled to the sleeve to form a loop, wherein at least one perforation associated with at least one of the first and second ends of the handle provides for adjustability of the loop relative to the sleeve.

A cup holder that includes a sleeve, which is expandable from a flat position to an open position, in which the sleeve is configured to receive a cup; and a handle having first and second ends coupled to the sleeve to form a loop, wherein at least one perforation associated with at least one of the first and second ends of the handle provides for adjustability of the loop relative to the sleeve.

A unitary disposable beverage container sleeve that can also be used as a coaster and that can be comprised of (optionally recyclable) cardstock for economically imprinting with advertising logos or slogans. The upper body vertical rectangular edges are connected to form sides of the sleeve and a gusset extends across the diameter at the lower edge to form the base of the sleeve. The gusset has a hinge that opens and closes the sleeve. Arched grooves positioned at that lower edge above the gusset where the gusset attaches to opposing sides of the sleeve allows flex in the sleeve and affords a level base.

A beverage sleeve assembly for thermally insulating a beverage container includes a panel that is formed into a cylinder for positioning around a beverage container. The panel has a first layer that is comprised of a thermally insulating material to inhibit thermal communication between the first layer and the beverage container. The panel has a second layer that is comprised of a fluid absorbent material to inhibit a user's hands from getting wet when holding the beverage container.
