An insulating device backpack may include an outer shell, a first sidewall defining a front portion of the insulating device backpack, and a second sidewall and a third sidewall defining side portions of the insulating device backpack, and a fourth sidewall defining a back portion of the insulating device backpack, an inner liner forming a storage compartment, an insulating layer positioned in between the outer shell and the inner liner, the insulating layer providing insulation for the storage compartment, and an opening configured to allow access to the storage compartment, and a closure adapted to seal the opening.

An apparatus including a shell defining a first side and a second side, wherein the shell is formed from a one-piece integral structure, wherein the one-piece integral structure is joined together to form a seam, and wherein the seam is on one of the second side or the first side, a storage compartment, and an opening configured to provide access to the storage compartment.

An insulating device can include an aperture having a waterproof closure which allows access to the chamber within the insulating device. The closure can help prevent any fluid leakage into and out of the insulating device if the insulating device is overturned or in any configuration other than upright. The closure also prevents any fluid from permeating into the chamber if the insulating device is exposed to precipitation, other fluid, or submersed under water. This construction results in an insulating chamber impervious to water and other liquids when the closure is sealed.

The insulating device may include a back panel support structure and shoulder straps allowing the device to be worn as a backpack. This construction results in an insulating chamber that is substantially impervious to water and other liquids when the closure is sealed.

A thermal container includes a cover, a main body, an opening-closing assembly, and a plurality of support poles. The main body has a storage space therein. The opening-closing assembly includes an upper connecting member and a lower connecting member. The lower connecting member is hermetically connected to the main body. The upper connecting member is hermetically connected to the cover. The support poles are vertically arranged in the main body for supporting the lower connecting member. The support poles, the upper connecting member and the lower connecting member are made of a hard material. The overall supporting strength of the thermal container is improved.

A portable, collapsible modular container system for transportation and storage is provided. The containers are modular and can be stacked in either extended or expanded position, collapsed, or a mix thereof. The container system is modular and customizable, and attachments such as wheel, handles, carry straps, tie down straps, and other accessories, may be added or removed at the option of the user.

An accessory for use with a portable container includes a jacket having a storage member and configured to extend around at least a portion of the sidewall of the container and a connection member connected to the jacket and configured to support the jacket in connection with the container. The connection member includes a connector configured to be connected to a port on the container such that a portion of the connector is received through the port.

Containers for holding particulate materials are provided. The containers may be formed from molded pulp. The containers may included molded pulp shaped or threaded features formed integrally on the container that may aid in providing closure to the device. The containers may optionally include a fitment and/or liner, or may be free of fitments and liners. The containers may optionally have inner load bearing members. The containers may be stackable.
