Protective sleeves for portable electronic devices are provided. More particularly, embodiments relate to a protective sleeve that is capable of protecting a portable electronic device enclosed within from multiple environmental effects, including heat, cold, water, and impact forces from being dropped. In embodiments, provided is a protective sleeve comprising: an outer layer of material with a reflective surface; and an inner layer of material with a protective surface; wherein the outer layer of material and the inner layer of material are layered together and configured to receive a portable electronic device. A thermal masking material and products thereof which can be used in a variety of applications where reduced visibility and heat detection is desired such as military, law enforcement, and hunting are also described.

A crop storage bag (1) made is of a high-strength textile (7) material which is extrusion-coated or laminated with a multilayer film (8) that comprises an insecticidal layer (9) in addition to a hermetic layer (10) which prevents oxygen from entering the bag. This oxygen barrier suffocates the insects inside the bag, and the insecticide kills insects that try to bore through the bag.

A woven laminated plastic bag having an easy open feature is provided. The easy open feature is generally defined by a weakened portion in the bag. In various aspects the bag can be fabricated from woven polypropylene and/or polyethylene layer which can be laminated with a film layer, can form a pinch bottom bag, and can have one or both sides include graphics and/or printing. The bag can also provide a top end and/or a bottom end either or both of which provide a discrete area which may contain discrete graphics and/or printing.

A woven laminated plastic bag having a weakened portion is provided. The weakened portion is generally defined by a plurality of perforations in the bag. In various aspects the bag can be fabricated from woven polypropylene and/or polyethylene layer which can be laminated with a film layer, can form a pinch bottom bag, and can have one or both sides include graphics and/or printing. The bag can also provide a top end and/or a bottom end either or both of which provide a discrete area which may contain discrete graphics and/or printing.

A side-gusset bag made of a plastic film/fabric laminate has front and rear panels formed of the laminate. Side gussets between the front panel and the rear panel, each formed with a pair of flanks meeting at a center fold, and each connected to the front panel and rear panel at respective edge folds. A lower end flap of the front panel and the flanges between the front panel and the rear panel having respective lower edges that are stepped to form exposed lower edge regions covered with glue such that, when folded rearward along a lower edge of the rear panel, the glue on these lower edge regions directly engages a rear face of the rear panel and secures the lower edge regions to the rear panel to form a bottom gusset.

A method of making and using composite bags. The bags include a multi-layered, inner laminated woven bag for consumer-facing bulk packaging of food products, particularly rice and grain products. The methods of making and using the bag can be partially or wholly automated.

A coated fabric (11), comprising a fabric (12) from polymer tapes (12a, 12b), wherein the fabric (12) is coated with a sealing layer (13), wherein at least a portion of the polymer tapes (12a, 12b) have a breaking tenacity of less than 45 cN/tex, preferably 15 to 40 cN/tex and an elongation at break of more than 30%, preferably of 40 to 90%, and/or wherein the sealing layer (13) is formed from a composition A comprising at least one ethylene/-olefin interpolymer, and wherein the composition has a density from 0.905 to 0.930 g/cc, preferably from 0.910 to 0.930 g/cc (1 cc=1 cm.sup.3), and a melt index (12) from 3 to 20 g/10 min and a bag comprising said fabric; a packaging machine (100) for filling gusseted (220) bags (10, 200) wherein the bag walls (202) of the bags (10, 200) consist of a woven fabric (11) of polymer tapes (12a, 12b) at least in part and wherein each of the ends (203, 204) of the bag wall (202) is provided with a filling mouth (211) for filling, wherein a closing device (125) is provided which is structured such that as the filling mouth (211) is closed a welding temperature of at least 50 Kelvin higher in the region of the gussets (220) than in a center region (223) of the bag wall (202) can be generated.

The present invention is directed to tamper-evident mesh material, methods of manufacture therefor, and tamper-evident bags manufactured therefrom. The tamper-evident mesh material of the present invention may be used, for example, in the manufacture of a variety of tamper-evident security bags for use in applications where it is desirable to detect any traces or evidence of tampering with or of unauthorized access to the contents of the bag.

A recyclable woven laminated plastic bag having features that further prevent leakage of contents out of the bag, or infestation of organisms into the contents of the bag is provided. In various aspects the bag can be fabricated from a woven polyethylene, polypropylene, or combination thereof layer which can be laminated using polyethylene, polypropylene, or combination thereof resin with a film layer formed from polyethylene, polypropylene, or combination thereof, can form a sealed corner bag and/or a diagonal sealed bag, and can have one or more sides include graphics and/or printing. The bag can also provide a top end and/or a bottom end either or both of which provide a discrete area which may contain discrete graphics and/or printing.

A fabric security bag having a fabric closable draw string configuration is provided. In general, the fabric security bag includes a fabric envelope surrounding the fabric security bag chamber; a closeable opening at the top of the fabric envelope open to the chamber; and at least one longitudinal cable channel housing with a cable channel running longitudinally completely around the periphery of the closeable opening. The cable channel housing is secured to the top of the fabric envelope and has entries into the cable channel at each end of the longitudinal cable channel housing. The cable channel housing has a longitudinal fabric wall along its full length with a series of voids separated by fabric portions to reduce the amount of fabric enclosing the cable channel.
