A system for applying a fastening material to a substrate is provided. The system may include a first material source including the substrate. The substrate may define a first length extending from a first edge to a second edge and the first material source may feed the substrate in a first direction transverse to the first length. The system may additionally include a second material source including the fastening material. The fastening material may define a second length extending from a third edge to a fourth edge, whereby the second length is substantially equal to the first length and the second material source feeds the fastening material in a second direction transverse to the second length. The system may also include an applicator system that secures the fastening material to the substrate.

The applicator assembly delivers a cosmetic, health, or hygiene chemical composition in an active state to the user for a disposable single use. The applicator assembly includes a wrapper, and an insert. The insert holds the chemical composition, and the insert is made of a foam composition compatible with the chemical composition. The system and method for manufacturing the assembly is a web conversion process for the chemical composition and foam composition of the assembly. The insert body of the assembly is made of a foam composition compatible with the cosmetic or other hygiene or medical treatment of the chemical composition and the manufacturing process. The foam composition includes a reaction product of water, clay, polyacrylate, silane, methanol, ethylenediamine, and polyurethane prepolymer.

A carton for containing a plurality of containers includes a bottom panel, at least one top panel, at least one side panel, at least one top end flap foldably connected to the at least one top panel, at least one bottom end flap foldably connected to the bottom panel, and at least one side end flap foldably connected to the at least one side panel. The carton further includes a handle including a handle strap separable from the at least one top panel and foldably connected to a relief portion, the relief portion being defined by spaced apart cuts in the at least one top end flap, the relief portion for being positioned in a container gap defined by a nested arrangement of the plurality of containers when the handle is activated.

A capsule or container is provided having optimized recycling attributes. The capsule is provided for use in a machine for preparing a consumable product from capsules. The capsule includes a body that defines an interior space with an opening. A cover is disposed over the opening. A filter is disposed in the interior space to define a chamber between the filter and the cover. The body, filter and cover are preferably formed of the same substantially pure polymer material. Ingredients are disposed in the interior space for preparing a desired product. A hinge is provided to tether the cover to the body. The cover is attached with a peelable seal to the body so that cover may be peeled away from the body while remaining tethered at the hinge.

The present disclosure relates to a method, apparatus and product in the art of reclosable packaging wherein the zipper is sealed to a film structure prior to treatment by the packaging machine for producing a thermoformed package. The zipper can be oriented in the machine direction, the transverse direction or at an angled orientation.

A packaging system includes an object, a heat-shrinkable package, and a protective film. The heat-shrinkable package is formed from heat-shrinkable film around the object and the heat-shrinkable film includes a weakened portion. The protective film is coupled to the heat-shrinkable film and positioned to cover the weakened portion in the heat-shrinkable film. The heat-shrinkable package is configured to shrink and form a package of heat-shrunk film around the object in response to being exposed to a heat-shrink environment. The protective film is positioned to cover the weakened portion in the heat-shrunk film after exposing to package of heat-shrinkable film and the protective film to the heat-shrink environment.

The present invention relates to a safeguard zipper bag, and more particularly, to a safeguard zipper bag that has a dual opening part in order to disperse force applied to the zipper bag, such that the safeguard zipper bag is difficult to open by outer opening parts and easy to open by inner opening parts, and the safety of the safeguard zipper bag is improved. A safeguard zipper bag according to the present invention may include: an envelope in the form of a bag; and a male zipper part and a female zipper part attached to inner surfaces of the envelope, in which one portion or the other portion of at least one of the male zipper part and the female zipper part, which is spaced apart, at a predetermined interval, from a portion where the male zipper part and the female zipper part are coupled by male/female engagement, is attached to the inner surface of the envelope. In this manner, it is possible to provide a low-cost, high-efficiency, and safe zipper bag which is not easy to primarily open due to dispersion of force without forming an additional accessory and increasing costs.

Methods and systems for managing configurable devices are disclosed. A configurable device may be a type of hardware device that may be configured for various purposes. The operation of the configurable device may depend on its configuration. To manage the configurable devices, a system may configure the configurable devices to provide desired functionalities. Once configured, the configured configurable devices may be deployed to a deployment site where they may provide their respective functionalities. As part of the process of configuring and deploying the configurable devices, the configurable devices may be moved between various locations. To protect and otherwise physically manage the configurable devices, the configurable device may be packaged with compliant packaging. The compliant package may facilitate configuration of the configurable devices.

A child-resistant reclosable bag includes a container configured to retain one or more items within a product portion. A zipper is coupled to the container. The zipper is above the product portion. The zipper includes one or more primary seals, and one or more secondary seals at one or more defined locations. The one or more secondary seals at the one or more defined locations identify opening areas on the product portion. The opening areas are configured to be grasped and pulled apart to open the zipper.
