An apparatus and a method are provided for a perforated top panel disposed in a shrink-wrapped bottle pack for containing water bottles. The perforated top panel includes an easy-open panel and a semi-circular portion disposed at a terminal end of the easy-open panel. The easy-open panel is partially bordered by an alternating series of cuts and lands that are configured to allow the easy-open panel to tear away from the top panel upon being pulled by a practitioner. The easy-open panel includes a parallel portion that extends to one or more tapered portions that terminate at the semi-circular portion. The semi-circular portion is configured to be grasped and pulled to separate the tapered portion and the parallel portion from the top panel and thus expose the water bottles.

A product mailer with an envelope and a first card positioned within the envelope. The first card has a bottom surface and a plurality of containers mounted to the bottom surface of the first card. Each of the containers mounted to the first card defines a cavity dimensioned to hold a respective product. A second card is positioned within the envelope. The second card has a bottom surface facing the bottom surface of the first card. A plurality of containers are mounted to the bottom surface of the second card. Each of the containers mounted to the second card defines a cavity dimensioned to hold a respective product. The containers mounted to the first card are offset from the containers mounted to the second card.

A system and method for the continuous packaging of a confectionary product, such as cannabinoid confectionary products, by providing a packaging tray comprising a plurality of cavities, depositing a liquid confectionary product in each of the plurality of cavities, and overlaying a lidding material over the confectionary products to form a plurality of packaged confectionary products. The deposited confectionary product may be cooled or cured before or after overlaying the lidding material.

The invention is directed to a packaging film (2) comprising: a top layer (4) with at least one aperture (4.1); a bottom layer (8) adhered to the top layer (4); a tear layer (6) adhered to the bottom layer (8) and extending along the at least one aperture (4.1) so that upon traction on the tear layer, said layer tears the bottom layer (8) through the aperture(s) (4.1). The tear layer (6) extends beyond the at least one aperture (4.1), between the top layer (4) and the bottom layer (8), preferably longitudinally in two opposite directions. The invention also relates to a condom wrapping with such a film and to the manufacturing method for such a film.

A laminate includes a substrate layer and a heat-sealing layer. A fold of the laminate produced by a weight of a 2 kg roller has a folding angle of 20 to 55°, and a content of polyethylene in the laminate is 90% by mass or more. The folding angle may be 25 to 55°. The substrate layer may contain high-density polyethylene. The substrate layer may be a uniaxially oriented linear low-density polyethylene film or an unstretched film made of polyethylene.

A disposable package is configured to promote recycling of its component parts. A thermoformed thermoplastic blister has a product bubble which extends from a peripheral flange to extend through an opening in a front card. The front card is affixed to a back card to close the product bubble and so as not to adhere to the blister flange. An extraction tab extends from the peripheral flange and is accessible on two opposed sides for gripping by a user to engage and remove the blister from the front card and the back card.

The present disclosure provides a fitment. In an embodiment, a fitment is provided and includes a top portion, a base, and a channel extending through the top portion and the base for passage of a flowable material. The fitment is composed of a polymeric composition. The polymeric composition includes (i) from 70 to 90 weight percent of a high density polyethylene (HDPE) having a density from 0.940 g/cc to 0.970 g/cc, a melt temperature, Tm, greater than 125° C., and a melt index from 1 g/10 min to 50 g/10 min; and (ii) from 30 to 10 weight percent of an olefin-based elastomer having a density from 0.860 g/cc to 0.905 g/cc, a melt index from 0.2 g/10 min to 50 g/10 min, and a Tm less than 125° C.

A packaging system for packaging granular food items for shipment includes a plurality of granular food item bags, each granular food item bag having a side surface. A folder has at least one crease with a first half having a first inner surface on one side of the crease and a second half having a second inner surface on an opposing side of the at least one crease. The side surface of each granular food item bag is attached to the first inner surface of the first half of the folder and the granular food item bags are arranged in and N×M array on the first inner surface of the first half of the folder. The folder is then folded along the at least one crease so the second inner surface of the second half of the folder is folded over the granular food item bags attached to the first inner surface.
