A tear away food bag includes tear seams, or other features, providing controlled tearing away of portions of the bags. The food bag is suitable for use as a lunch bag, a picnic bag, or a take out food bag. A bottom portion of the bag may be torn away from the food bag to provide a food holder and top portions maybe torn away from the food bag to provide place mats.

Provided is a receptacle system, including a receptacle chassis that defines a volume and that defines, at an edge of the receptacle chassis, an aperture that provides access to the volume. The receptacle chassis includes a first face that is adjacent the volume, and a second face that is opposite the receptacle chassis from the first face and that is adjacent to an exterior volume. The receptacle chassis includes an object securing system that is included on at least one of the first face or the second face, and that is configured to secure the receptacle chassis to an object. Also, provided is a receptacle template system, including a planar member defines a first slot and a second slot that extend through the planar member from a first face to a second face and that are configured to receive a cutting device.

Disclosed are embodiments of a volume control storage bag and methods of making same. The volume control storage bag may have first and second sidewalls, a double-locking closure mechanism with a first closure element extending along the first sidewall and a second closure element extending along the second sidewall, each closure element having a channel and an elongated member configured for interlocking with one another. A gusset is sealed along three sides of the first and second sidewalls, leaving an opening through the closure mechanism and defining an interior space having a specific volume. Corner seals may be formed at the corners of the first and second sidewalls, further reinforcing the double-locking closure mechanism for an airtight and hence waterproof seal. The volume control storage bag may be made of a food-grade polyethylene vinyl acetate blend, approximately 90% or less ethylene vinyl acetate and approximately 10% or less polyethylene.

An insulated box assembly can include a box including a pair of opposing side box panels, a pair of opposing main box panels, and a bottom box panel, the box defining an internal box cavity with a box opening defined opposite from the bottom box panel; and an insulated liner positioned within the internal box cavity, the insulated liner including a pair of opposing main liner panels and a pair of opposing side liner panels, the pair of opposing main liner panels and the pair of opposing side liner panels defined by a single blank liner panel including a blank sheet and an insulation batt, the insulation batt positioned between the blank sheet and the box.

A woven laminated plastic bag having features that further prevent leakage of contents out of the bag, or infestation of organisms into the contents of the bag is provided. In various aspects the bag can be fabricated from woven polypropylene and/or polyethylene layer which can be laminated with a film layer, can form a pinch bottom bag, and can have one or both sides include graphics and/or printing. The bag can also provide a top end and/or a bottom end either or both of which provide a discrete area which may contain discrete graphics and/or printing.

Provided is a gas barrier laminate being capable of hermetic sealing by heat sealing and having a paper substrate and a vapor-deposited layer, in which the paper substrate has a basis weight of 30 to 100 g/m.sup.2, and the water vapor transmission rate and the oxygen transmission rate of the gas barrier laminate are in specific ranges, respectively.

A bag comprising a first flap assembly having a first and second flap, at least one coupler comprising a pair of corresponding coupler sides disposed respectively at the first and second flaps of the first flap assembly, and a first and second pull respectively extending from the first and second flaps of the first flap assembly. The bag further comprises a second flap assembly comprising a third and fourth flap, an internal compartment disposed within the first and second flap assemblies and that defines a compartment cavity and opposing external faces, first and second slots defined by the external faces of the internal compartment and the third and fourth flaps of the second flap assembly, and third and fourth slots defined by the first and second flaps of the first flap assembly and the third and fourth flaps of the second flap assembly.

A tamper-evident bag assembly that can be sealed to enclose contents within the bag assembly in a tamper-evident manner. The bag assembly is provided with closure tabs that can be folded over the top edges of the bag assembly and sealed to a side panel of the bag. Strategic portions of the bag assembly can be scored to indicate tampering if unsealing of the adhesive takes place. The bag assembly is also provided with a pull tab designed facilitate opening of the sealed bag assembly to reveal the contents contained therein. When the pull tab is used to open the sealed bag, the bag cannot be re-sealed.

The renewable, biodegradable, and compostable waste manure bag made from virgin or recycled kraft paper specially designed for the collection of animal waste, such as domestic dogs, will allow the user quickly and easily collect and dispose the pet waste. The waste bag has an innovative design and is environmentally friendly. Further, the waste bag has a feature promoting its closure as to isolate the pathogens for better waste management, containing in its formulation a variety of reagents on its inner surface to neutralize pathogens and aromas. The same material can accelerate the composting and reintegration into the soil.

A woven plastic bag having features that further prevent leakage of contents out of the bag, or infestation of organisms into the contents of the bag is provided. In various aspects the bag can be fabricated from a woven polymer layer and a film layer, can form a pinch bottom bag, and can have one or both sides include graphics and/or printing. The bag can also provide a top end and/or a bottom end either or both of which provide a discrete area which may contain discrete graphics and/or printing. The bag can have an end with a step cut configuration, wherein the step cut configuration includes one or more angled and/or radial cuts between separations.
