A collapsible travel case includes a plurality of panels that are each non-removably secured to at least one other panel of the plurality of panels. Each panel of a subset of the panels may be removably secured to another panel of the subset of panels such that the plurality of panels define a substantially cuboid shape. A top panel may define a top opening with a closure mechanism. A bottom panel may be foldable and insertable within the top opening with other panels of the plurality of panels folded between the top panel and the bottom panel. The bottom panel may include a retractable stiffening element. Panels may define openings through which flaps secured to other panels may insert and be secured within using fastening material.

An apparatus and system for dispensing a food and beverage product where a flowable product is extracted from a flexible pouch and where an opening exists through which the flowable product evacuates the flexible pouch. The opening has a lock seal that locks the flowable product within the flexible pouch when a pressure is applied to the flexible pouch. There is also a zip seal located in the opening that is configured to lock the flowable product within the flexible pouch after the lock seal has been removed when pressure is applied to the flexible pouch.

A bioreactor configured to contain a volume of liquid is provided. The bioreactor includes a collapsible bag able to contain the volume of liquid, a first sparger connected to the collapsible bag, and a second sparger connected to the collapsible bag.

A self-standing packaging bag for use in a microwave oven. The packaging bag is made of a flexible film formed into a bag shape, the packaging bag includes a bottom surface portion and a peripheral surface portion provided to rise from the bottom surface portion, the peripheral surface portion includes a front surface portion and a back surface portion facing each other and includes an opening that opens upward, the peripheral surface portion includes an openable member configured to open and close the opening, and an opening portion for opening the packaging bag, the opening portion is provided closer to the bottom surface portion than the openable member, a container-shaped main body portion obtained by tearing the peripheral surface portion in a circumferential direction at the opening portion and removing a tear-off portion above the opening portion is usable as a dish when eating contents in the packaging bag.

The present disclosure relates to a reinforced thermoplastic bag (e.g., comprising a bag-in-bag). In one or more embodiments, the reinforced thermoplastic bag includes a reinforced portion at a top-of-bag area where users often apply an external force to lift or carry the reinforced thermoplastic bag. In these or other embodiments, a grab-zone reinforcement insert is positioned across one or both of a hem channel region and a grab-zone along an outer surface, an inner surface, or between layers of the reinforced thermoplastic bag. In one or more embodiments, the grab-zone reinforcement insert comprises multiple layers (e.g., of a non-woven material). For example, the grab-zone reinforcement insert includes a first and second layer formed by a fold. In other implementations, the grab-zone reinforcement insert includes separate, discrete layers. In one or more embodiments, at least a portion of the grab-zone reinforcement insert is positionally affixed via a hem seal.
