A structure is described for forming a wrapper, e.g., for print media, where the structure includes a line of weakness for facilitating a user's tearing of the wrapper to access the contents. The line of weakness may include a first line of weakness portion that extends along a fold line of an envelope fold forming one of the front or rear or right sides of the wrapped package, as well as a second line of weakness portion that extends substantially perpendicularly to the respective longitudinal fold lines and a connecting line of weakness portion that extends between the first line of weakness portion and the second line of weakness portion and is disposed at a non-zero angle with respect to each. In this way, a tear initiated near the first line of weakness portion and may be propagated along the other portions to create an opening for accessing the product.

A multipurpose compostable absorption mat serves to receive and encapsulate organic matter for compostable disintegration of the mat and organic matter simultaneously. The mat comprises at least three portions: a first portion facing the organic matter defined by a parchment paper or parchment-like material having multiple pinholes or other openings or porosity sized and dimensioned to enable passage of greases and/or liquids; a second portion outboard of the first portion defined by a deliquescent material, and is able to absorb the greases and/or liquids from the first portion through a capillary mechanism; and a third portion outboard of the second portion defined by an impermeable plant/corn starch-based plastic-like material. The third portion looks and feels like plastic film. The at least three portions of the mat may be formed as at least three discrete layers, with the three discrete layers attached to one another so as to form the mat, with the mat having a thickness in the range from about that of a sheet of paper or a paper towel or a napkin to about ? or more.

A packaging structure is provided. The packaging structure includes a protective film and at least one fixing strip. The protective film includes at least one opening, and the at least one fixing strip includes a bonding layer. The bonding layer is disposed on one side of the at least one fixing strip and is configured to attach the at least one fixing strip to the protective film corresponding to the at least one opening. A portion of the at least one fixing strip covers the protective film, and another portion of the at least one fixing strip covers the at least one opening.

A package for holding a product. The package can comprise a liner for at least partially receiving the product and at least partially wrapping around the product. The package further can comprise a construct wrapped at least partially around the liner. The construct can comprise a first portion and a second portion, the first portion at least partially overlapping and engaging the second portion.

Provided is a protective bag for cards and the like in which four-corner outer edges of the protective bag run along circular arc-shaped four-corner outer edges of cards or the like and in which four-corner inner edges within the protective bag and circular arc-shaped four-corner outer edges of the cards or the like fit each other. The protective bag is a protective bag for cards and the like, the protective bag includes two rectangular-shaped films of equal shape and size which are superposed on each other without any positional shift, three sides of the rectangular shape are sealed so that an opening part is formed at one remaining side thereof. Each corner of the protective bag is formed into a circular-arc shape, and two base corner portions opposed to the opening part are opened without being sealed.

A packaging sheet for wrapping an article or object, providing structure around the article or object, or forming a box. The packaging sheet includes first, second, third, fourth, and fifth panels, the second panel being connected to the first panel, the third panel being connected to the first panel opposite the second panel, the fourth panel being connected to the second panel opposite the first panel, and the fifth panel being connected to the third panel opposite the first panel. The packaging sheet also includes first, second, third, and fourth flaps connected to the first, second, third and fourth panels, respectively. In some embodiments, a first edge is defined between the third and fifth panels so that the fifth panel is adjoined to the third panel along the first edge, and the fifth panel defines second and third edges along which no flaps are adjoined.
