THERMOPLASTIC BAGS WITH LOFT CREATING REINFORCEMENT STRIPS
The present disclosure relates to a reinforced thermoplastic bag with lofted regions. In one or more embodiments, the reinforced thermoplastic bag includes a reinforced portion with lofted regions 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 reinforcing strip 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 lofted regions increase the loft of the reinforced thermoplastic bag, improve the feel of the reinforced thermoplastic bag, and/or modify a look of the reinforced thermoplastic bag.

Stand-up plastic storage bag with reinforced bottom gusset
A stand-up plastic food storage bag having two bottom gusset walls and a folding seam defining abutment of the front bottom gusset wall to the rear bottom gusset wall. There are gusset wall reinforcement layers on an external surface of the bottom gusset walls, and these reinforcement layers terminate at least about 0.25 cm away from the folding seam, and do not cover the folding seam, so they do not significantly interfere with folding the seam when collapsing the bag into its storage condition. A method for forming such stand-up plastic food storage bags by coextruding a monolayer plastic panel film and two monolayer plastic gusset floor reinforcement layers, wherein the monolayer plastic gusset floor reinforcement layers comprise two parallel strips spaced apart by at least about 0.25 cm on the panel film, lengthwise in a direction of coextrusion, followed by folding the monolayer plastic panel film lengthwise to form a lengthwise fold line between the two monolayer plastic gusset floor reinforcement layers, forming a gusset in the area of the lengthwise fold line, forming seals in the plastic panel film in a direction perpendicular to the lengthwise fold line to define individual bag segments, and cutting the plastic panel film at the seals to form individual stand-up plastic food storage bags.

Bag for Personal Items
A flexible, two-part bag. The bag has a first outer section for containing common toiletry items, such as toothpaste, toothbrush, floss, etc., including a small shovel, clean toilet paper, or package of moist wipes etc. The walls of the first outer section are preferably of transparent material or netting material to enable viewing of the contents. A second center section, formed inside the first outer section, and extending slightly above the first section, enables the contents of the sections to be separated, such that the bag forms at least two compartments.

Collapsible, lightweight container for sorting and delivery of packaged items
A container is described, which may be used as part of item sortation within a facility, as well as item deliveries to end locations. In an example, the container may be configured to transition between a collapsed state and an expanded state. The container may include a loading panel and an unloading panel. The loading panel may include a fastener such that an opening can be selectively created and closed in the expanded state. Accordingly, packaged items may be inserted and securely retained in the container through the loading panel. The unloading panel may also include a fastener such that an opening can be selectively created and closed in the expanded state. Accordingly, the packaged items may be unloaded from the container through this opening. The container may also be dimensioned to facilitate stowage of the container in the collapsed state and loading/unloading of packaged items in the expanded state.
Flexible fluid reservoirs with closures and structural members
Disclosed fluid reservoirs include a 3-D formed first sheet and a 3-D formed second sheet. The 3-D formed first sheet and the 3-D formed second sheet are sealed together at least partially around respective perimeter edges thereof to define an internal space for fluid storage. There is a first opening defined between the 3-D formed first sheet and the 3-D formed second sheet at a first end of the fluid reservoir. The first opening is configured for filling the fluid reservoir with fluid. There is a second opening defined between the 3-D formed first sheet and the 3-D formed second sheet at a second end of the fluid reservoir opposite the first end. The second opening has a fluid exit port configured for allowing fluid to exit the fluid reservoir. The reservoir can include an optional baffle that is coupled to the 3-D formed first and second sheets.
