The present invention relates to a stand-up packaging (1) for food products comprising at least one first pouch (21) and at least one second pouch (22) for carrying a food product, respectively, an outer packaging (3) having two cover elements (31,32) at least partially sandwiching the first pouch (21), and at least one further element (33) being at least partially sandwiched between the first pouch (21) and one of the cover elements (31). The further element (33) is penetrated by a through hole (36) and the one cover element (31) is glued (Gi) to the first pouch (21) via the through hole (36). The second pouch (22) is directly glued (G2) not via a through hole to at least one of the cover elements (31,32) or the further element (33).

A single dual-sided product placement and information strip includes a first side with product information for consumers and a second side with product placement information for placing products on a display shelf. The dual-sided product placement and information strip enables information necessary for consumers to be printed on the first (consumer-facing) side and information that assists stockers to place products on shelves to be printed on the second (opposing) side. Also disclosed are systems and methods for formatting and printing the dual-sided product placement and information strips. The single dual-sided product placement and information strip may be printed alone or in a single sheet along with one or more other dual-sided product placement and information strips.

A twist-tie dispenser comprises a twist-tie cluster and a base. The base includes a top portion, a rear wall extending downward from the top portion, and an open front. A latching structure for removably mounting the base to a fixture is defined at least in part by a first hook-like extension protruding from the rear wall of the base, the first hook-like extension defining a pocket formed by an upper stop surface and a vertical retention surface, the latching structure also defined at least in part by a flexible portion of the rear wall that is configured to elastically deflect through a cut-out provided on the rear wall in a direction from the rear wall toward the open front when a rod-like mounting structure of the fixture is inserted into the pocket of the first hook-like extension, the flexible portion also defining a lower stop surface that opposes the upper stop surface of the first hook-like extension when the rod-like mounting structure is within the pocket and is captured between the lower stop surface and the upper stop surface.

A hair product packaging includes a hair product having a plurality of hair strands. Each hair strand has a first end and an opposing second end. The plurality of hair strands are separated into a plurality of bundles. Each bundle has a proximal end and an opposing distal end. The hair strands of each bundle are folded such that the first and second ends are substantially aligned with each other at the distal end while a substantial mid-point of the hair strands form a loop at the proximal end. The packaging also includes a plurality of retaining members with the loop of each bundle positioned within a retaining member. A securing member secures the plurality of retaining members together. The packaging also includes backing member. The securing member is fixed to the backing member such that the hair product is positioned on the backing member and displayed.

A security packaging provides a structure for providing evidence of package tampering. The packaging includes a first panel having an opening, and a foil label at least partially overlaying the opening and at least partially adhered to an insert member. Upon separation of the insert member from the packaging, at least a portion of the foil label is separated from the foil label thereby leaving a visual void in the opening indicating that the separation has occurred.

A stabilizer can include an attachment surface and a non-stick surface. Multiple stabilizers can be arranged in a stack, e.g., such that the attachment surface of one stabilizer is engaged with the non-stick surface of another stabilizer. A stabilizer can be removed from the stack and attached to an item having a curved surface along the length of the item. The item, with the stabilizer attached, can be positioned on a conveyance surface, e.g., such that the stabilizer is between the conveyance surface and the item.

A twist-tie dispenser refill comprises a twist-tie cluster and a base. The twist-tie cluster includes a top cluster portion. The base includes a top portion, which is generally U-shaped and forms an opening configured and arranged to receive the top cluster portion of the twist-tie cluster. The base also includes a rear portion that defines mounting members used for mounting the base to a fixture.

A single dual-sided product placement and information strip includes a first side with product information for consumers and a second side with product placement information for placing products on a display shelf. The dual-sided product placement and information strip enables information necessary for consumers to be printed on the first (consumer-facing) side and information that assists stockers to place products on shelves to be printed on the second (opposing) side. Also disclosed are systems and methods for formatting and printing the dual-sided product placement and information strips. The single dual-sided product placement and information strip may be printed alone or in a single sheet along with one or more other dual-sided product placement and information strips.

The invention relates to a handling device for a valuable article that is usable as a means of payment and is of flat extent or punctiform. The handling device comprises a carrier element of flat extent that is foldable and bendable into a wave form and at least one valuable article fixed thereto. Moreover, the invention relates to a method for manufacturing a handling device for a valuable article.

A bookbinding apparatus includes a sheet aligning unit which stacks and aligns plural sheets having holes formed therein, a binding mechanism which binds the sheets aligned in the sheet aligning unit by conveying a binding component in an axial direction while rotating the binding component in a circumferential direction, a binding component storing unit which stores therein plural binding components; a binding component conveyance path which conveys the binding component from the binding component storing unit to the binding mechanism. The binding component conveyance path forms a curved conveyance path for conveying the binding component with being curved with respect to the axial direction to an end portion of a side of the aligned sheets at which the binding mechanism starts inserting the binding component, at a position that is distant from the end portion by a distance smaller than a length of one binding component.
