A ring is configured for use with an automated tying machine with a twist tie and tag. The ring includes a channel through which the twist tie is configured to travel, a first guide, and first and second surfaces. The first guide includes a tip and first and second inclined sides extending from the tip. The first and second surfaces are spaced from portions of the first and second inclined sides, respectively. A system for automatically banding and tagging a product includes a tying machine and a tag feeding assembly. The tying machine is configured to band the product with a twist tie. The tag feeding assembly is configured to position an attachment portion of a tag into a ring of the machine.

A device for the packaging of products, particularly of the food type, includes a container made of material that is flexible and substantially impermeable to gases and water vapor. The container forms inside it a compartment for accommodating products and is provided with at least one passage opening for the introduction and/or evacuation of the products into/from the compartment. At least one functional port can be closed hermetically and is associated with the container in fluid communication with the accommodation compartment. At least one monitoring port is associated with the container in fluid communication with the accommodation compartment, which is adapted to allow the passage of fluid at least from the inside of the compartment toward the outside. An assembly for detecting at least one chemical-physical parameter of the atmosphere is located within the accommodation compartment.

A container configured to hold fire extinguishing material and to be aerially deployable over a fire for releasing the fire extinguishing material over the fire includes a skid plate and a restraint strap coupled to the skid plate. A box assembly is positionable on the skid plate and includes a box body including a wall having an upper edge, with the restraint strap being connectable to the wall. A box strap is connected to the box body. A bag is positionable within the box body and is configured to receive the fire extinguishing material, with the bag being closable to retain the fire extinguishing material received therein. A lid is positionable on the box body, with the lid having a main panel and a lid strap connected to the main panel. The lid strap is connectable to the box strap to secure the lid to the box assembly.
