Drug packets may be dispensed as a belt of drug packets. Machine-readable identifiers in the belt may be automatically read to identify drug packets and associate the drug packets with the received orders. The drug packets may be automatically inspected to confirm contents of the drug packets against the received orders. The belt may be automatically separated into segments of drug packets. Each of the segments may correspond to a supply period and each of the drug packets within each of the segments may correspond to a drug dose event for the multi-drug regimen within the supply period. The segments of the belt may be automatically accumulated into belt rolls such that, for each of the belt rolls, a first segment end is on an interior of the belt roll and a second segment end is on an exterior of the belt roll.

A method includes folding a packaging from a single piece of foldable material, wherein the foldable material includes a back panel with adjacent back side panels, a rectangular top panel adjacent to the back panel with adjacent square top side panels, a lid panel adjacent to the top panel with adjacent lid side panels, a rectangular bottom panel adjacent to the back panel with adjacent polygonal bottom side panels and a front panel adjacent to the bottom panel with adjacent front side panels, wherein all of the panels are integral with each other in the single piece of foldable material. The method includes: a) wrapping the packaged good in an inner liner; b) placing an inner stiffener at at least two adjacent sides of the wrapped packaged good; and c) folding the foldable material around the inner stiffener and the wrapped packaged good forming a packaging.

Described is a method for making single-use capsules for beverages including the steps of: providing an upper flange having at least one hole; providing a support having at least one seat for housing a rigid cup-shaped body; inserting a rigid cup-shaped body in said housing seat, said rigid cup-shaped body having an inner space and an open upper opening; providing a piece of filter material above the upper flange; actuating a first step of feeding, by means of a pushing element, a central portion of said piece of filter material towards said hole, up to an intermediate position; upon reaching said intermediate position of the pushing element, performing a main locking of said piece of filter material relative to said upper flange and making a main cut of the piece of filter material along a predetermined main closed cutting line, extending substantially circularly about said central portion, to define a filter for infusion of beverages.

The present invention relates to the preservation and packaging of the agricultural products and discloses a gas remover and a method for packaging agricultural products. The gas remover provided herein is capable of effectively removing gas released in a vacuum sealer bag. The gas remover includes calcium hydroxide, which can effectively removes gas released by the plant-based agricultural products in the vacuum sealer bag, avoiding the expansion of the vacuum sealer bag.

A packaging container for holding contents such as fresh food. The container comprises a tray having a flange, a pre-formed scaling ring and a flexible film for sealing in the contents of the tray. The sealing ring is made from fiber, filament or tape (“FFT”) that is shaped into a shape that matches the shape of the tray flange. The sealing ring is adhered to the tray flange by heat welding or other means and the flexible film is adhered to the sealing ring.

A packing insert includes a panel that defines a periphery, a location inward of the periphery, and a plurality of flaps each defining an outer end and an inner end such that each flap extends inwardly from its outer end to its inner end. Each of the flaps is foldable about its outer end so that the flaps collectively define a void. A first one of the flaps has a second outer end spaced outwardly from the outer end of the first flap. The panel defines at least one frangible portion between the outer end and the second outer end of the first flap. The first flap is selectively foldable about 1) its outer end so as to at least partially define the void, and 2) its second outer end, after breaking the at least one frangible portion, so as to increase a size of the void.
