The present invention provides a sheet material container being made of a sheet material and including a body portion and a bottom portion that is to be disposed on a placement surface, and the sheet material including a plurality of film layers. A body portion sheet that constitutes the body portion includes a bonding portion where peripheral edge portions of the sheet materials are bonded. In a bottom surface sheet that constitutes the bottom portion, a non-adhesive region is provided in the plurality of film layers. The non-adhesive region forms a bottom filler-filled portion. The bottom filler-filled portion extends annularly around a non-filled portion, and includes at least three protruding leg portions that are to be placed on the placement surface so as to allow the container to stand by itself. The protruding leg portions protrude toward the placement surface past other portions in the bottom filler-filled portion due a leg forming portion.

The present disclosure provides a plastic carrier bag wherein the front and rear panel is designed to be multi-layered comprising an inner layer and an outer layer, and a reinforcing area containing at least one single or multi-layered plastic film strip is secured on the inside or outside to the front and rear panel, respectively.

A waste storage device is provided comprising a waste storage compartment for storing waste and a lid. The device further comprises a dispenser for dispensing an agent inside the waste storage device and an actuator arranged to activate the dispenser. A waste cartridge is also provided comprising a relatively rigid upper portion and a relatively flexible lower portion. The relatively flexible lower portion is arranged for storing waste items and the relatively rigid upper portion is arranged to be folded about an axis in a direction substantially towards the relatively flexible lower portion of the waste cartridge.

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.
