A modular box assembly includes a box with side panels defining a box cavity, a first thermal liner positioned within the box cavity, the first thermal liner including a first insulation batt disposed between sheets, the first thermal liner defining three first liner panels, at least one box side panel being covered by a first liner panel, and a second thermal liner positioned within the box cavity, the second thermal liner including a second insulation batt disposed between sheets, the second thermal liner defining three second liner panels. At least one other of the side box panels is covered by a second liner panel. The bottom box panel is covered by either a first liner panel not covering any side box panel or a second liner panel not covering any side box panel. Each insulation batt can be formed from a mixture of thermoplastic binder fibers and reinforcement fibers.

A receptacle having a wrap is configured to define a chamber for receiving a container. A pair of slots are formed in the wrap. A first connector is exposed through a first one of the slots and coupled to a surface of the wrap and a second connector exposed through a second one of the slots and coupled to the surface of the wrap.

A machine for making insulation may include two or more rotatory members configured to pull a precut insulation product at a first rate, wherein the precut insulation product comprises a first paper layer, a second paper layer, and a continuous paper core sheet, a first restraint and a second restraint spaced apart a predetermined distance to create a first space therebetween, and two or more second rotary members configured to feed a continuous paper sheet at a second rate into the first space such that the continuous paper sheet forms a plurality of flexible loops defining a plurality of air channels that extend in a direction that is substantially perpendicular with a machine direction. The first rate may be slower than the second rate.

An insulated bag reduces heat exchange between temperature-sensitive items and ambient surroundings. The insulated bag has a bag body which can be covered by a bag lid. The bag lid is provided with a first portion of a securing element. The insulated bag is suitable for insertion into an item space of a mobile delivery robot. The mobile robot has a robot lid provided with a complementary second portion of the securing element. After the insulated bag is inserted into the item space, the two portions of the securing element are connected. Thereafter, when the robot lid is opened, the bag lid is also opened, permitting access to its contents.

A method of delivering goods, the method comprising the steps of: providing a collapsible carrier bag (20), or providing a collapsible transport container (20), wherein the carrier bag (20) or the transport container (20) is provided in a collapsed state (20A); expanding the collapsible carrier bag or transport container in an environment having a pre-determined condition of the environment; loading chilled or frozen goods into an interior storage space of said transport container or carrier bag; and transporting said loaded transport container (20, 20C) or carrier bag (20, 20C) to a destination (DD).

A protective bottle enclosure includes a container having a neck, a shoulder, and a body, wherein the neck includes a plurality of threaded portions and a plurality of planar portions located intermediate the plurality of threaded portions. The enclosure further includes a removable cap from which extends a first threaded portion and a second threaded portion, the first and second threaded portions being located along opposing sides of the sidewall, and a first planar portion and a second planar portion disposed adjacent and between the first and second threaded portions. The first and second threaded portions of the cap are aligned with the plurality of planar portions along the neck when the cap is axially inserted into the container.
