An Improved Beverage Bag comprising pre-measured pouches of tea or coffee, along with sugar, artificial sweetener, and/or non-dairy creamer, all within honeycomb inspired packaging to provide consumers who enjoy enhanced beverages with a convenient, quick, no-mess means of creating the perfect cup of tea or coffee.

The invention concerns a sealing membrane (2) for a container (5), said membrane (2) having an edge region (4) intended to be secured around an opening (5a) of the container (5) such as to form a sealing of the container (5), the membrane (2) comprising a pull-tab (1) extending from a portion of the edge region (4) such as to facilitate simplified release of the membrane (2). The invention is characterized in 12 that the pull-tab (1) comprises a stiffening structure (7) arranged in a pattern that defines an intended folding line (3) extending across the pull-tab (1). The invention also concerns a container arrangement (8) comprising a container (5) with an opening (5a) and, at least partly secured to the container (5) around the opening (5a), a sealing membrane (2) of the above type. The invention also concerns a method of manufacturing a sealing membrane (2) of the above type, wherein the method comprises the step of embossing, corrugation, creasing, folding and/or heat shaping the stiffening structure (7).

A method for manufacturing a container seal having an integral pull tab comprises providing a surface layer, an elastic layer, a top layer, an aluminum foil intermediate layer, and laminating a sealing adhesive layer of an adhesive thermoplastic resin or viscous agent to the intermediate layer. An adhesive surface and a non-adhesive portion are added to the thermoplastic resin layer, and placed on the aluminum foil to form a container seal laminate. The container seal laminate is cut to conform with an opening of the container to be sealed. The seal has an integral pull tab.

In an embodiment, a portion control container can have a body and a lid sealed to the body. The lid can have defined therein a spout-type opening. The spout-type opening can be defined by an initiation region having 100% cut-through the lid that transitions to a pattern of reduced strength having less than 100% penetration through the lid. The container can remain sealed until the lid is separate from the container along the seal to provide a dip-type opening or the lid material is torn at the initiation region and pattern of reduced strength to define a spout-type opening for squeeze dispensing of the product from the container.

A separating layer for the transport of pharmaceutical secondary packagings and to a transport system for transporting pharmaceutical secondary packagings which comprises the separating layer are provided. The separating layer is a polymer layer having a planar section extending in an axial direction along a longitudinal axis and an elevation extending normal to the longitudinal axis. The separating layer has in the axial direction a normal spring force that is 0.2 to 5 N.

A web of cleaning products and a method of manufacturing the same is disclosed. The web includes a carrier sheet having a plurality of depressions each filled, and in direct contact with, at least one cleaning composition. A plurality of internal lids that correspond with the plurality of depressions are sealed to the carrier sheet in a manner covering the plurality of depressions. Additionally, a plurality of external lids that correspond with the plurality of internal lids are sealed to the carrier sheet and cover the plurality of internal lids. The carrier sheet and external lids may be made of a water-resistant material, and the internal lids may be made of a water-soluble material. In one embodiment, the internal lids may be omitted, and instead the depressions be filled with water-soluble pouches, each of which contains a respective dose of a cleaning composition.

It is described a capsule (10) for dispensing a beverage comprising: a main body (20) suitable for containing a product (P) to be dispensed, which comprises a bottom (22) and a side wall (24), extending from said bottom (22) and ending with an edge (26); a closing member (30) suitable for sealably closing said main body (20); and at least one first valve means (40) suitable for allowing the beverage to come out from the capsule (10) or for allowing a liquid to enter into the capsule (10). The main body (20) is made from cellulose pulp, the closing member (30) is made from biocompatible material and the capsule (10) further comprises a first sealing film made from edible material comprising at least one salt of alginic acid (23) and positioned inside said bottom (22) of the main body (20) at least at said at least one first valve means (40). It is also described a method for manufacturing a capsule for dispensing a beverage, as defined above.

A container includes a first end structure defining a first opening therein, the first end structure being configured to receive a first cover positioned on the first end structure and extending across the first opening. A second end structure is positioned opposite the first end structure and defines a second opening extending through the second end structure. The container further includes two opposing side walls coupled to the second end structure along a respective first set of fold lines and two opposing end walls coupled to the second end structure along a respective second set of fold lines. At least one of the two opposing end walls extends obliquely relative to the second end structure and taper outwards from the second end structure. The container further includes a second cover positioned on the second end structure and extending across the second opening.
