The invention relates to an envelope-type flexible shipping pouch having an inner pouch defining a compartment for receiving an item, an outer pouch incorporating the inner pouch, an opening for accessing the compartment, and a system for closing the opening. The system for closing the opening includes first adhesive means that ensure said opening is kept closed. The inner pouch and the outer pouch are secured together so as to define an inflatable chamber around said inner pouch. The pouch includes a channel extending into the chamber, the channel including an outlet opening into the chamber and an inlet opening onto the pouch, where the placement of the system for closing the opening simultaneously leads to the sealing of said channel.

Provided is a method for producing a packing sheet with improved insulation and storage properties, which can greatly reduce logistics costs by minimizing a volume during storage and transportation and also greatly increase insulation.

A pouch or pocket may act as a container and may be used to securely hold objects (e.g., cell phone, keys, wallet, etc.) during athletic activity (e.g., running). The pouch may be a standalone item or integrally formed as part of other items. The pouch may hold the object to be stored in place within the pouch or pocket. The pouch may provide some cushioning or impact force attenuation to protect the object being held within the pouch or pocket. Additionally, the pouch may be attached to a garment, such as running clothes. The pouch includes an outer envelope sealable by a closure and a one-way valve with foam layers located inside the pouch. After the object is placed in the pouch, the closure is closed, and the air within the pouch is expelled via the one-way valve by compressing the foam layers from the outside.

Methods of making a protective cover. According to one method, a composite sheet is formed by providing a substrate formed from a nonwoven material having a puncture resistance exceeding 500 N, the substrate having a first surface and a second surface, disposing a first layer of plastic film on the substrate first surface and a second layer of plastic film on the substrate second surface. The composite sheet has a first end, a second end, a first lateral edge, a second lateral edge, and an axis extending between the first lateral edge and the second lateral edge. The method also includes folding the composite sheet about the axis to bring the first end of the composite sheet proximate the second end of the composite sheet and define a partially enclosed space having an opening proximate the first and second ends of the composite sheet.

Disclosed is a container for transporting a biopharmaceutical fluid, the container including a leak-tight wall having an outer portion and an inner portion, the outer portion and the inner portion delimiting between them an intermediate space that may be inflated under pressure with an inflation gas, the container being adapted to be alternately in: a non-inflated state in which the container is empty of pressurized inflation gas; an inflated state in which the wall of the container is inflated and delimits an internal cavity adapted to contain the biopharmaceutical fluid. The wall includes a peripheral lateral wall around the internal cavity, the peripheral lateral wall being completely rigid or semi-rigid when the container is in the inflated state so as to ensure a protection of the biopharmaceutical fluid.

An improved expandable slit-sheet stock material is configured to aid in temporarily restricting opening of a plurality of slits of the slit-sheet stock material, such as during winding of the unexpanded stock material or during expansion of the stock material. Each slit of the plurality of slits includes one or more un-slit reinforcement portions, such as reinforcement ties, extending fully between opposite longitudinal sides of the slit, and disposed between opposed transverse endpoints of the slit. The reinforcement ties minimize or prevent tearing of the stock material during the winding or expansion. A dunnage conversion system for expanding the slit-sheet stock material includes an expander having a pair of opposed rollers. The rollers engage the stock material to effect breaking of the un-slit reinforcement portions and expansion of the slit-sheet stock material.

An air-sealed bag with enhanced side and corner protection includes a box body and first protection walls. The box body is formed by a plurality of first air columns and includes two side walls and a bottom wall. The bottom wall is at bottom ends of the side walls and is connected with the side walls. The side walls and the bottom wall form a receiving space. The outer surface of the first air column adjacent to the joint between the side walls forms a chamfered shape. The first protection walls are on the outer side surfaces of the side walls, respectively. Each of the first protection walls includes two first protection portions, and each first protection portion includes a first protection air column. Each of the first protection portions is attached on the first air column of which the outer surface forms the chamfered shape.
