Provided is a bottle which includes a neck portion configured to receive a cap to seal the bottle, a lower portion including a bottom on which the bottle is configured to stand erect, an upper portion extending from the neck portion to the lower portion and an annular rib. The annular rib defines a transition between the lower portion and the upper portion and protrudes outwardly with respect to both the upper portion and the lower portion of the bottle. The upper portion, lower portion and annular rib are portions of a single entity formed from one material. The upper portion is configured to reversibly collapse into the lower portion.

The invention comprises an apparatus, comprising: (1) a dissolvable tablet, comprising: a support matrix, the support matrix comprising at least two percent by mass a gassing agent, the gassing agent comprising at least one of: a carbonic acid, H.sub.2CO.sub.3; a bicarbonate, HCO.sub.3; a bicarbonate salt; a carbonate, CO.sub.3.sup.2−; and a carbonate salt; and (2) at least one milligram of tetrahydrocannabinol, where the dissolvable tablet optionally includes an acid and a buffer at least partially separating the gassing agent and the acid, where the tetrahydrocannabinol is blended into the support matrix of the dissolvable tablet prior to formation of the dissolvable tablet and/or is infused into a pre-made tablet comprising the support matrix.

A method of dispensing customized hemp extract tinctures includes dispensing at least one of multiple cannabinoid isolate solutions and an inactive carrier oil into a tincture container by way of calibrated dispensers and sealing the tincture container.

A container filling assembly that can be used with container filling systems to fill containers during successive filling cycles with the same or different fluid compositions at high rates of speed, with little to no machinery changeover, and/or with little to no fluid waste.

Introduced here are systems for customized formulation and production of cleaning products and associated methods for using those systems. A system may include a computer-implemented platform (also referred to as a “formulation platform” or “production platform”) that is communicatively connected to an interactive dispensing machine responsible for making cleaning products. An individual or company may be permitted to select, create, or modify formulas via the production platform, while the interactive dispensing machine can produce cleaning products in accordance with those formulas.

The present invention relates to a packaging method for packaging a pourable product in at least one container, by means of which it is obtained an improvement in the flexibility of the packaging machine configured for carrying out the method with regards to the type of the product which is to be packaged, and to a machine configured for carrying out the method.

An apparatus for filling containers with a filling product, for example in a beverage bottling plant, includes a plurality of filling members, which respectively have a filling product line for feeding the filling products into an appropriate container; and at least one distribution line, to which the filling product lines of the plurality of filling members are linked.

Beverage processing system for filling a beverage into containers with a filler with several filling valves for filling the beverage into the containers, where the filling valves are each configured having a filling device for filling at least two components of the beverage into one of the containers, a capper for closing the container filled with the beverage, and with a conveyor for transporting the containers at least from the filler to the capper, characterised in that the beverage processing system comprises at least one gas analysis device for quality control of the mixed beverage filled into the containers, and in that the at least one gas analysis device each comprises a gas suctioning device for suctioning gas from a head region of the containers filled with the beverage and an analyzer for analyzing the suctioned gas.

One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for processing plastic containers within an open aseptic converter chamber comprising a sanitized environment, a supply line, a sanitizer device, a perforator device, a sealing device, and a conveyer. During operation, the method includes: providing and filling a container with heated or heatable liquid including water; sealing the container with a seal or cap; cooling the container to create a first headspace pressure; enclosing the container within the chamber; creating an opening in the seal or cap within a sanitized environment of the perforator device; increasing the first headspace pressure to a second headspace pressure by introduction of a sanitized fluid; resealing the container within a sanitized environment of the sealing device; and, transporting or conveying the sealed container away from the chamber.

A liquid filling system is provided that contains a container and a nozzle, while such nozzle contains liquid flow passages that are configured to generate different liquid influxes that are directed differentially toward the bottom and the sidewall(s) of such containers.
