Tubular container (1) made of a flexible material, which comprises an outer tube (10) and an inner container (30) housed inside the outer tube (10) and intended to come into contact with the packaged product (51). A flexible shoulder (32) of the inner container (30) is secured to a head (12) of the outer tube (10), there remaining an intermediate cavity (7) between the outer tube (10) and the inner container (30). At least one orifice (24) communicates the intermediate cavity (7) with the exterior of the tubular container (1). The head (12) may include a one-way airless valve. The outer tube (10) may recover its shape whilst the inner container (30) remains compressed during the use of the tubular container (1). The outer tube (10) and the inner container (30) are preferably made out of materials that fulfil different requirements. The distal end (36) of the inner container (30) is preferably flared against the outer tube (10).

A container with multi-chambers is described. Each hair coloring substance of the multi-chamber is stored in its sub-chamber. The final hair coloring solution is formed by mixing the hair coloring substances in mixing sub-chambers in liquid communication with the interior of each of the sub-chambers. An optional mixing nozzle is also used in conjunction with the mixing chamber, and the mixing nozzle may include a helical mixing tool.

A sealed and squeezable container of pre-filled squeezable food that is sized no larger than a single meal serves as a prepackaged, one-time-use, meal-appropriate enteral food dispenser. By one approach the squeezable container has a dispensing port comprising a direct feeding tube connector. By one approach a flow limiter serves to limit a flow rate of the squeezable food from the squeezable container through the direct feeding tube connector. By another approach, in lieu of the foregoing or in combination therewith, a one-way valve can be disposed to prevent material (such as gas or other contents of the consumer's digestive system) from entering the squeezable container via the direct feeding tube connector.

A dispenser includes a body defining an internal volume and an opening that provides a path of fluid communication between the internal volume and an exterior of the body. A first tubular member extends through the opening. A length of the first tubular member is greater than or equal to about 150% of a height of the body. In response to squeezing the body, a composition in the internal volume flows out of the body through the opening and into the first tubular member.

A display system includes a plurality of packets that each include a cavity containing flowable material and a body portion that defines the cavity. The packets each include a header portion and a connector tab, with an aperture established through the header portion. The connector tab of each packet includes a neck portion and a retaining portion, which has a wider cross dimension than the neck portion. The retaining portion of one packet, when received through an aperture of a product or another packet, limits retraction from the aperture to join the packet with the product or other packet.

The invention proceeds from a tube produced from a plastics material, having a tube body, which has a first end and a second end, having a tube head, which is connected to the tube body at the first end and has a removal opening, and having a tube fold which is formed at the second end and has a first sealing surface and a second sealing surface, wherein the first and the second sealing surfaces are connected to one another in a fluid-tight manner. According to the invention, the sealing surfaces have arranged between them a retaining insert, which is connected to the first sealing surface and the second sealing surface in a fluid-tight manner.
