A box blank assembly includes a box blank, the box blank includes a bottom panel; a first side panel attached to the bottom panel by a first length fold line; a second side panel attached to the bottom panel by a second length fold line; and a third side panel attached to the bottom panel by a first width fold line; and an insulation batt attached to at least one of the first side panel, the second side panel, and the third side panel.

A bag machine for production of bags made of paper material includes an unwinding device to unwind and feed paper material in a transport direction (x), a device to produce weakening lines partially offset in direction (x), so that a first wall of the bag continues in at least one tab that extends beyond a second wall, a tube-forming device, in which side areas are folded to form an overlapping area, a separation device to separate tube sections along the weakening lines, and a bottom formation device, in which areas of a leading end of the tube section are folded and fastened onto an outer wall thereof. The machine has a device for application of adhesive surfaces to the paper material, with which an adhesive surface is applied to an area of the paper material that represents the side of the tab facing the second wall in the finished bag.

A shipping bag or sack having side gussets, an easy open double fold, and tightly sealed stepped ends is described that withstands internally forces at the easy open end during drop tests. The side gussets include a stepped feature that may be incorporated into polywoven, thermoplastic and paper bags. The bags further include a two step fold and seal process.

Bags for containing various retail items, such as food items, and methods of forming the same. In some aspects, a bag having a top and bottom is provided. The bags can include a first layer and a second layer opposite the first layer and uniformly extending from the first layer. In some aspects, the bag can further include a first side seam between a side of the first layer and an opposing side of the second layer and a second side seam between a side of the second layer and an opposing side of the second layer. The first layer and the second layer each have an un-folded edge substantially parallel to the bottom fold. In some aspects, the bags include a bottom V-shaped fold extending along a transverse axis relative to the first side seam and the second side seam, the bottom V-shaped fold forming a seamless bottom.

Disclosed are embodiments of a volume control storage bag and methods of making same. The volume control storage bag may have first and second sidewalls, a double-locking closure mechanism with a first closure element extending along the first sidewall and a second closure element extending along the second sidewall, each closure element having a channel and an elongated member configured for interlocking with one another. A gusset is sealed along three sides of the first and second sidewalls, leaving an opening through the closure mechanism and defining an interior space having a specific volume. Corner seals may be formed at the corners of the first and second sidewalls, further reinforcing the double-locking closure mechanism for an airtight and hence waterproof seal. The volume control storage bag may be made of a food-grade polyethylene vinyl acetate blend, approximately 90% or less ethylene vinyl acetate and approximately 10% or less polyethylene.

A folder system with an accordion spine 16, and a method of making same is disclosed. The folder may have a plurality of insert elements 52, 60 either at manufacture or by a stub system which are bound into the spine at the valleys 32 of the web which forms the spine. The web is made of outer zig-zag web 40, with the inner web 42, 44, 46 joining adjacent insert elements and the outer web, to create a strong spine of web and inserts.

A trifold side seamed film produce bag includes a front wall and a back wall, first and second side edges sealed together and a seamless bag bottom. The bag is joined at the side edges to additional bags by a perforation. The bag is corona treated on at least one wall and promotional material is printed on the treated surface. The bags are folded to one third of their height to fit compact bag roll dispensers. The bags are folded in a Z-fold or C-fold configuration. The method includes manufacturing the bags and winding them onto cores or forming the bags into coreless rolls. An apparatus for forming the side seamed bags includes an extruder, a tubing flattener, a perforator, a sealer, a corona treater, a printer and a slitter. The treated, printed bags may be stored on rolls for later slitting into two bag streams and folding into thirds.

The invention relates to a method for producing a bag, in which method a bag is produced from a fiber material, preferably a paper material, wherein a web made of the fiber material, preferably a paper web, is unwound as a flat web, thereafter sequential adhesive strips are applied in continuous operation, thereafter the flat web is folded to form a bag shape, thereafter the adhesive strips are activated, for connection, by the application of heat, and thereafter individual bags are cut from the flat web by means of a cutting device.
