A double-walled cup and a process for production of the cup are described. The cup includes an inner cup and a tube-shaped outer sleeve, which is formed from a blank of paper material joined at its ends. The tube-shaped outer sleeve is slid axially onto a prefabricated inner sleeve and secured. The tube-shaped outer sleeve is formed from a flat blank by joining the ends of the blank before being slid on, whereby the ends of the blank are joined by an adhesive applied to a limited area of the outer sleeve. The ends of the blank are joined by a thermoplastic material in the form of an adhesive, which for example can be a hot-melt adhesive or a sealing varnish.

Method and apparatus for producing a twin-wall cup from paper or paper-like material including placing an inner cup with a sleeve and a base onto a mandrel, laying a flat segment onto an outer side of the inner cup, opposite to the mandrel, shaping the flat segment to form an outer jacket, which surrounds the inner cup, and fixing the outer jacket on the inner cup by means of a material engagement connection of outer jacket and inner cup, in particular by means of adhesive bonding, wherein at least one spacer is attached to an inner side of the flat segment and/or to an outer side of the sleeve of the inner cup before the flat segment is laid on the inner cup.

A method for insulating a box includes positioning an insulated panel adjacent to a side panel of the box, the insulated panel including an insulation batt and a sheet, the insulated panel defining a border extending around a perimeter of the insulation batt; and attaching a seam of the border to a portion of a perimeter area of the side panel.
