A removeable band for confining a stack of cutlery pieces. The band can include a body having a first surface and a second surface that oppose one another, the body being an elongated strip of fiber-based material. A coating can be disposed on at least a portion of the first surface of the body, and an adhesive section can be disposed on at least a portion of the coating. The adhesive section can be configured to adhere to the second surface of the body when a first end and a second end of the body at least partially overlap to form a continuous band.

In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to packing one or more commercial product items for delivery to customers. In some embodiments, there is provided a system for packing one or more commercial product items including an elongated strip comprising a material that is at least flexible and bendable; at least one unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) coupling device secured to a first portion of the elongated strip, wherein the UAV coupling device comprises a plate configured to couple the elongated strip to a UAV configured to deliver the one or more commercial product items; a securing mechanism at a second portion of the elongated strip; and a wrapping material covering at least exposed areas of the one or more commercial product items not covered by the elongated strip.

The instant invention relates to a multipurpose glueless securement means for fastening/sealing applications which traditionally are accomplished by the use of a disposable adhesive bearing tape/or a disposable tape utilizing mechanical fastening devices. More particularly, the invention relates to the use of a high tensile strength polyvinyl chloride (PVC) strip which possesses self-adhesive properties and can be reused virtually indefinitely. The elongated rectangular strips of tape are comprised of 14.1 to 16-gauge double pressed polished PVC. This thickness provides enhanced strength. Due to the unique chemical properties of the invention it has a wide range of useful applications from traditional sealing or binding applications to applications involving contact or application with external skin surfaces.

A tape dispensing system includes packaging tape an application apparatus, and an incision element. The application apparatus is configured to apply the packaging tape to a package. The incision element defines a unique pattern, and is connected to the application apparatus. Movement of the apparatus is effective to punch or incise the unique pattern defined by the incision element completely through the packaging tape and into the package as or after the packaging tape is applied to the package.

The present invention discloses a tape for packaging that includes removable labels consisting of multiple layers of media and a method for production of a continuous tape including a process for strategic placement of the labels along the tape.

A product presentation assembly is comprised of one or more presentation products enwrapped in a ribbon, said ribbon securing the presentation products by being affixed to itself with adhesive, said adhesive being applied selectively so as to avoid contact with the presentation product, the ribbon then being affixed to a support structure.

Provided is a method for packing arrangements of piece goods, in which a plurality of piece goods and particularly containers are at least partially interconnected by a first connection device, at least two-piece goods of said plurality of piece goods being directly interconnected by the connection device. According to the embodiments, this plurality of piece goods connected by means of the connection device is packed with a second connection device in the form of a second wrapping element and the plurality of piece goods connected by a first connection device is transported to a packaging device by a transport device and surrounded and particularly wrapped by said packaging device with the second wrapping element.

A collation of packages and related methods of retaining packages together in a collation wherein each package of the collation being cuboid-shaped and including a pair of opposing first faces, a pair of opposing second faces and a pair of opposing end faces. The packages are arranged in rows such that a second face of a package faces a second face of an adjacent package within the same row, and a first face of a package in a row faces a first face of a package in an adjacent row. A second face of a package at the end of each row, and a first face of each package in a row, being exposed. The collation includes a plurality of bands extending about the packages to hold the collation together. Each band is spaced from its adjacent band and extends over the exposed first face and exposed second face, of each package.

Contact lens packaging (2) includes two or more individual, sealed blister packs (1) coupled together by a connecting label (5), which includes a uni-axial shear polymer film (6). The connecting label (5) is arranged and oriented such that the tear direction of the polymer film (6) is parallel to a line (A) bisecting adjacent blister packs (1). Methods of binding together two or more blister packs (1) are also described.
