A device for sanitary collection of materials features a bag having a closed bottom end, side walls that extend from the closed bottom end to delimit a collection space above the closed bottom end, and a hand protector that is attached to one of said side walls and has a hollow interior that is open or openable at one end to enable insertion of one's hand into the hand protector. A handle is provided in an opposing side wall so that that bag can be suspended in an open state between a wrist or forearm on which the hand protector is worn, and the hand of the user's opposite arm. A stamping operation performed on a continuous plastic web is operable to efficiently create the bag and hand protector as integral parts of a unitary bag construction.

A mobile waste storage device is disclosed. The mobile waste storage device includes a storage body and a pair of cover sections. The storage body includes a waste receiving space and a plurality of body fastener receiving passageways. The pair of cover sections is flexibly attached to the storage body and is extendable over each other when covering the waste receiving space. Each cover section includes a cover fastener receiving passageway extending through an end thereof and positioned to correspond with another cover fastener receiving passageway extending through an opposite cover section and one of the plurality of body fastener receiving passageways when the pair of cover sections overlap to cover the waste receiving space.

A collapsible container has a collar that extends above the top opening and attaches at peripheral edges to a panel by a separable fastener.

A system including a liner implement that is configured to provide a lining for at least a receptacle, the liner implement includes an upper edge component having an outer surface portion and an inner surface portion. A retention strip implement engages the upper edge component, to tighten the upper edge component around an upper opening of the receptacle. A first end segment of the retention strip implement is configured to engage the outer surface portion of the liner implement. A second end segment is configured to engage the inner surface portion of the liner implement being operable for tightening the upper edge component around an upper element of said receptacle. An adhesive free area is configured to be operable for grasping during the engagement of the second end segment adhesive with the inner surface portion of the liner implement upper edge component.

Anti-microbial, discreet personal hygiene item disposal bags are described.

The present invention provides a waste receptacle comprising an outer bag having a flexible construction forming an opening at a top side and at least a pair of upper straps capable a third strap for retaining peripheral items, of attaching the receptacle to a rail, a lid attached at a top of bag to close the opening. The receptacle having an inner bag having a backbone circumferentially disposed around the inner bag to help maintain the inner bag in a generally cylindrical shape, the inner bag insertable through the opening of the outer bag and a pull string to disposed at the top of the inner bag being capable to cinch the top of the inner bag closed and a buoyant float member disposed in the outer bag.

A cover for use with sacks for covering the mouth of a sack after it has been filled, to prevent its contents from spilling. One application is for recyclable yard waste sacks that are used to carry yard waste such as leaves, or used for carrying food scraps from restaurants. The sacks being made of paper so that they can be composted, require a cover that is made of paper that can be recycled as well. Some embodiments of the cover utilized a paper with a plurality of holes or die-cut slits that stretch into a hexagonal three dimensional shape when pulled, and contracts when released. The unusual elasticity afforded to ordinary paper by the slit holes patterns is used to create a sack cover that can stretch to close a sack without tearing. The elasticity is utilized to create sufficient griping force on the mouth of the sack to resist dislodgement of the cover when the sack tips over. A few embodiments of the cover utilize a hybrid design in which both ordinary and slitted paper are used. Other embodiments of the cover are made of ordinary paper with a drawstring.

The present disclosure relates to strata 2-ply drawstring trash bags implementing a J-flap extended hem to provide increased top-of-bag strength. In one or more embodiments, the J-flap extended hem includes a 2-ply web folded back on itself (e.g., during a hem folding operation to enclose the drawstring within a hem channel). In one or more implementations, a hem seal secures the 2-ply web to an inside surface of the trash bag. At least one ply of the 2 -ply web fold-over extends past the hem seal and is additionally secured to the inside surface of the trash bag via one or more hem skirt seals. For reduced material consumption in certain embodiments, the J-flap extended hem of the present disclosure imparts added strength using only one ply of the 2-ply web fold-over. In some embodiments, at least one ply of the 2-ply web fold-over includes ring-rolled portions to add top-of-bag strength.

The landscaping tarpaulin is a collection device. The landscaping tarpaulin is configured for use in the collection of debris from the ground. The debris is placed on the landscaping tarpaulin. The landscaping tarpaulin forms a containment structure used to transport the debris for disposal. The landscaping tarpaulin comprises a tarpaulin structure, a plurality of magnets, a plurality of zippers, and a plurality of kick steps. The plurality of magnets, the plurality of zippers, and the plurality of kick steps attach to the tarpaulin structure. The plurality of magnets secure the corners of the tarpaulin structure together to form the containment structure of the tarpaulin structure. The plurality of zippers enclose the tarpaulin structure into a bag like containment structure. The plurality of kick steps form foot holds used to hold the tarpaulin structure in a fixed position as the debris is loaded onto the tarpaulin structure.

The present invention relates to improvements for the manufacturing of a wave-cut bag of polymeric film, more specifically a wave-cut bag with a body having improved shock, tear and puncture resistance. The polymeric film has an embossed pattern of a plurality of embossed regions that are comprised of a plurality of parallel, linear embosses. Further disclosed is a process for intermittently applying the embossed pattern to a collapsed tube of a blown film extrusion process. The collapsed tube with the intermittently applied embossed pattern is particularly well suited for constructing wave-cut trash bags with the embossed pattern applied to a central body of the wave-cut bags.
