A label with improved physical properties comprising: a base layer having a microstructured area; a composite microstructure having a first, second and third set of microstructures disposed on the microstructured area; a dry lift force attributable to the composite microstructure greater than 7 pounds according to lift testing; a wet lift force attributable to the composite microstructure greater than 7 pounds according to lift testing; an adhesive layer affixed to the base layer for affixing the label to a container; and, thereby providing a microstructured label having improved gripping physical properties that can be affixed to a container.

Various recyclable containers are described herein and generally comprise a frame made of a first paper-based material having a bottom wall and side walls that extend from the bottom wall; and a metallic layer that is removably positioned along an inner surface of the bottom and side walls of the frame; and at least one tab that is attached to a portion of the metallic layer. The at least one tab has a portion that extends past at least one sidewall of the container so that, during recycling, the at least one tab is pulled to remove the metallic layer from the frame. Examples of methods for manufacturing and recycling these containers are also described herein.

A foot assembly includes a block retainer and a non-skid block. The block retainer is configured to be positioned at least proximate to an edge between a bottom surface and a side surface of a structure. The block retainer includes a planar portion, an angled portion, and a front surface. The planar portion has an interior surface configured to contact the bottom surface. The angled portion is diposed at an angle from the planar portion and includes an interior surface configured to contact an angled contact surface of the structure. The front surface includes a first dynamic coefficient of friction (DCOF). The non-skid block is connected to the planar portion and includes an exterior potion extending from the front surface away from the structure and includes a second DCOF greater than the first DCOF.

A thermally insulated transport container for use with an ice battery, having an internal usable volume for freeze-free cooling of temperature-sensitive products placed therein, the usable volume having an outward usable volume portion, an internal cold storage volume sized to receive the ice battery, the cold storage volume having an inward cold storage volume portion adjacent to the outward usable volume portion to define a common interface of the usable volume and the cold storage volume, a heat-conducting liner extending about the usable volume and having a heat-conducting liner portion located between the outward usable volume portion and the inward cold storage volume portion, and a phase change material (PCM) container positioned adjacent to the heat-conducting liner portion at the common interface and in heat-conducting contact with the heat conduction liner portion, the PCM container sized to contain a phase change material.

A thermal insulation canister includes a canister body and a thermal insulation cover. The thermal insulation cover includes an upper cover body, a sealing ring, an adjusting frame, a pressure valve, a trigger and an inner cover body, each of two sides of the trigger is equipped with a trigger connecting shaft, the upper cover body is equipped with two installation holes. The trigger connecting shaft is slidably connected to the installation hole. Two adjusting shafts are fixedly installed on an upper end surface of the adjusting frame. The two adjusting shafts passes is rotatably connected with the trigger connecting shaft. The trigger connecting shaft is configured to drive the adjusting shaft to move in a vertical direction. The sealing ring is positioned between the upper cover body and the adjusting frame. The canister body is further equipped with an inner canister body.

A storage container is provided. The container may be insertable into a cold-storage dewar or other cold-storage container and may have multiple compartments. A payload item may be inserted into a tray and placed in one compartment for cold storage. Temperature buffering material may be inserted into one or more other compartment to provide for increased holding time at or near a desired temperature.
