A web of bags includes a sheet material and a connecting material. The sheet material includes two sheets that are formed from a fiber-based material, are arranged to form a series of bags, and are connected together to form sides of the bags. Each bag is bounded by the sides where sheets are connected together and an opening. The connecting material is applied to inner surfaces of the sheets and can be activated to connect inner surfaces by the activated portions of the connecting material. The connecting material is applied to closing regions on the inner surfaces of the sheets such that the connecting material in the closing regions can be activated to close the opening.

An improved package for core-less rolls of bags provides a shrink-wrap film around the bag having differential shrinkage to better accommodate the roll form.

The present invention relates to modern plastic shopping bags. The shopping bag comprises two opposing handles, a main body with opposing sides, an open top, and a closed bottom. The shopping bag handles comprises a distinguishing characteristic on all of or a portion of each handle, thereby making each handle significantly visibly distinguishable from the main body of the shopping bag. Additionally proposed is a group of shopping bags for mounting to a dispenser rack, and wherein the handles characteristic of each first bag in line to be removed from the dispenser in succession differs from the handles characteristic of the next bag in line to be removed from the dispenser. In addition to the handles characteristic being significantly visually identifiable from the main body characteristic, other identifiable features of the bag such as a displayed Universal Product Code (UPC) are also shown and displayed.

A bin bag dispenser has a dispenser housing having a housing base and a housing wall that extends upwardly from the housing base to form a chamber for holding the trash bag roll; and a housing cover that fits over the dispenser housing to cover the chamber, the housing cover having a top panel and a front surface. A dispensing mechanism is mounting in the top panel of the housing cover, the dispensing mechanism having an annular retainer fixedly mounted to the top panel, a resilient sheet having a slit, and a means for mounting the resilient sheet within the annular retainer so that trash bags from the trash bag roll may be dispenser though the slit of the dispensing mechanism.

There is disclosed a bag having a tubular body with a top open end and a bottom closed end. The tubular body has a larger open diameter at the top open end. The tubular body narrows into a narrower open diameter adjacent to a bottom closed end. The tubular body in a flattened two-fold condition has a pair of side edges extending from a top edge to a bottom edge. The top edge delimits the top open end. The bottom edge delimits the bottom closed end. The pair of side edges are generally parallel to one another in a first portion adjacent to the top edge.

In a plastic bag including a triangular flap which has a folded hypotenuse and an open hypotenuse, a flow path is formed by the folded hypotenuse or the open hypotenuse to discharge air or gas through the flow path.

Reusable shopping or produce bags are made from a fabric material. The fabric material may be woven or non-woven. The bags may be used with existing grocery store fixtures. For example, a reusable shopping bag can be designed to hang on existing checkout fixtures designed for conventional plastic shopping bags. Similarly, a roll of produce bags can be dispensed from an existing fixture designed for conventional plastic produce bags. Thus, the bags may be used in grocery stores with little to no reconfiguration of existing check outs and product display areas.

The paper recyclable heat sealable bag includes a heat sealable water soluble inner layer coating and an article of paper. The heat sealable coating is applied to the article of paper by a printing press. As the printing press applies the heat sealable coating to the article of paper, the paper recyclable heat sealable bag may be wound into a master roll with a plurality of paper recyclable heat sealable bags. The master roll is fed into an automatic packaging system which fills the bags with a product from at least one of a top edge and a side edge of the paper recyclable heat sealable bags. The paper recyclable heat sealable bag has certain perforations to remove the paper recyclable heat sealable bag more easily from the master roll and sealed with a heat sealer.
