A container for taking up and dispensing a substance includes a glass tubule, a glass punch that slides adjustably in the glass tubule, forming a seal, and a glass sleeve closed on one side, in which the glass tubule is accommodated. The glass sleeve is shorter than the glass tubule, so that the glass tubule projects out of the glass sleeve. The glass punch is longer than the glass tubule and projects out of the glass tubule at the end situated outside of the glass sleeve. The glass punch does not fill the glass tubule completely, so that a substance chamber remains in the region of the end of the glass tubule situated within the glass sleeve.

A container comprising: a container body that includes a wall portion separating inside and outside and is formed of a long-fiber-reinforced silicon-carbide composite material obtained by combining monofilaments of silicon carbide with a silicon carbide matrix, the wall portion having a thickness equal to a specific dimension; and a lid configured to close an opening of the container body, formed of a material containing at least silicon carbide, and equipped with such a wall portion separating inside and outside that thickness is within a range of 1 to 3 times the specific dimension.

The disclosure is directed to a drink container that includes a lower container having a void formed therein configured to hold a liquid, a divider disposed in the void of the lower container, the divider configured to form a plurality of compartments, each compartment being configured to separately hold a liquid, wherein each of the compartments has an open top portion, a film configured to seal the top portions of each of the plurality of compartments, a upper container configured to interact with the lower container and a cutter, the cutter being operably attached to an internal surface of the upper container at a first end, wherein a cutting edge of the cutter is nearer the film than the first end of the cutter.

A bundling article includes a stretchable portion and a tag portion. The stretchable portion includes a fastening opening having a first width. The tag portion overlaps the stretchable portion at an overlap area, wherein the stretchable portion and the tag portion are bonded together at the overlap area. The tag portion includes a notch, the notch including two opposed shoulders separated by a second width. The second width is substantially equal to or greater than the first width.

A strengthened glass container or vessel such as, but not limited to, vials for holding pharmaceutical products or vaccines in a hermetic and/or sterile state. The strengthened glass container undergoes a strengthening process that produces compression at the surface and tension within the container wall. The strengthening process is designed such that the tension within the wall is great enough to ensure catastrophic failure of the container, thus rendering the product unusable, should sterility be compromised by a through-wall crack. The tension is greater than a threshold central tension, above which catastrophic failure of the container is guaranteed, thus eliminating any potential for violation of pharmaceutical integrity.

A container for food liquids, in particular for the storage and/or fermentation of alcoholic beverages, has a body in which a substantial portion of the walls of the container is made of a ceramic material with controlled porosity. The body of the container is shaped as a truncated pyramid, in which each of the faces of the side wall includes a slab of ceramic material with controlled porosity, and in which a support structure made of cementitious material is formed along the external corners of the side wall and in correspondence with the bases of the truncated pyramid. Axial openings are defined in the bases of the container and are adapted to cooperate with suitable closing members.
