Double-walled decorative articles such as flower vases and candle holders comprise an inner form defining a receptacle and an outer form, spaced apart from the inner form, to create a cavity. A bottom opening in the outer form enables decorative filler materials to be introduced to the cavity such that the decorative materials do not enter into the receptacle, which may contains flowers, water, candles, hot wax or other substances. A removably replaceable plug or cap is used to close off the bottom opening following the introduction of the decorative filler materials. The inner and outer forms may be provided as a unitary item or separate pieces may be joined. The decorative filler materials may be provided in conjunction with the article as part of a kit, in which case the amount of filler material is matched to the volume of the cavity.

A foldable container and a cleaning tool assembly are provided. The foldable container includes a foldable side wall disposed annularly. The foldable side wall includes two adjacent connecting parts connected through a flexible part. When the foldable container is unfolded, the connecting parts rotate around a fold part on the flexible part. A first abutting part and a second abutting part are respectively disposed on two sides of the fold part and are arranged on the flexible part or the connecting parts. When the foldable container is in an unfolded state, the first abutting part abuts against the second abutting part. The cleaning tool assembly includes a cleaning tool and the foldable container. When the foldable container is unfolded to be used, the first abutting part abuts against the second abutting part.

A collapsible crate includes a base and a plurality of walls pivotably connected to the base. Each of the walls is a single piece of molded plastic defining a plurality of planks having the appearance of wooden planks, such as with molded-in grain texture, knots and irregular edges. The irregular edges may provide gaps between adjacent planks to provide ventilation to the crate. The knots may include knot holes to provide additional ventilation. The planks may include horizontal planks extending between vertical planks. The vertical planks and horizontal planks may include an interior wall from the edges of which extend ribs toward the exterior of the crate.

A packaging container includes a base section having a U-shaped perimeter wall and a cover section having a cover outer wall, the cover section adapted to cover the base section when in a closed state. The packaging container includes a closure mechanism including an aperture formed within an outer wall segment of the base section and a projection extending inward from the cover outer wall for engaging the outer aperture of the base section. The closure mechanism retains the cover section over the base section and securing the packaging container in a closed position, wherein an obstructive member obstructs movement of the inner wall segment of the base and prevents the projection from being released from the outer aperture. A release tool is provided for being inserted between the cover outer wall and the base outer wall, wherein the release tool is adapted to move the cover outer wall outwardly to release the projection from the outer aperture, thereby opening the packaging container.

A container arrangement for product comprises at least one first independent container part having a closable dispensing opening and a second independent container part having a closable dispensing opening. The second container part can be arranged detachably in a recess of the first container part in such a manner that the first container part and the second container part are connected to form the container arrangement, wherein the first dispensing opening and the second dispensing opening point in different directions. The first dispensing opening can be closed by a first closure part and the second dispensing opening can be closed by a second closure part. At least the second closure part overlaps a subregion of the second container part and a subregion of the first container part in a locking manner.

A reuseable container is provided for storage and transport of prepared meat in log format. The container has a base, a pair of upwardly extending side walls, and a pair of upwardly extending end walls connected with the side walls to form a generally rectangular box. The box has four interior edges and four interior corners where the side and end walls join the base. The box is integrally formed of molded polyethylene. Each of the four interior edges and four interior corners has a rounded interior profile to prevent accumulation of material and facilitate sanitation between uses. A reuseable container system is also provided having a removable lid, and access panel.

A portable, personal container is formed from an inner container formed by a first tube and a second tube which slidably engage to form a sealed inner container, which fits within an outer container formed by a first tube and a second tube which slidably engage to form a sealed outer container. A spring allows a pumping action which creates a slight negative pressure in the inner container and creates a plenum within the outer container, keeping odors and freshness in.

A container for a fabric treatment composition having: (a) a container floor extending to a floor boundary, a portion of the container floor being a collection zone, and a raised portion extending inwardly within the container, at least a portion of the collection zone being located on a longitudinal axis of the container and at least a portion of the raised portion intersecting the longitudinal axis and transverse axis of the container; (b) a peripheral wall extending from the container floor; (c) a peripheral flange extending from the peripheral wall; and (d) a needle piercable membrane sealed to the peripheral flange to define an interior volume, wherein the interior volume contains less than about 100 mL of a liquid fabric treatment composition.

The invention is directed to a flexible, thin walled seamless container. The container includes a rigid bottom component and a rigid top having an opening. The bottom can be formed to have a first shape, such as a rectangle, and the top can be formed to have a second shape different than the first shape, such as a circle. A cap can be connected to the top to block the opening. The cap can include a pour spout or shaker holes.

Thermoplastic containers comprising an integrated separating component, as well as methods for converting the thermoplastic containers from a three-dimensional configuration into a configuration for enhanced recyclability, are provided. Systems and methods involving the thermoplastic containers are also provided.
