Corrugated boxes, box blanks, and systems for individually shipping a bag of liquid stored therein and converting into a bag-in-box dispenser are provided. An example box comprises a top portion with a removable perforation feature defined on a front wall. A bottom portion is sized to fit within an opening of the top portion and includes a cut-out feature in a front wall that aligns with the perforation feature of the top portion when the box is formed. The removed perforation feature and the cut-out feature enable a dispensing valve of a stored bag to extend past/through both front walls when the box is converted into the bag-in-box dispenser. The box is configured to store a bag of liquid ranging from 2 to 10 liters and is designed to pass individual box shipping test standards, such as ISTA and SIOC test standards. Methods of forming the box are also provided.

A modular box assembly includes a box having a top end, an opposed bottom end, and side panels extending from the top end to the bottom end. A bottom panel is disposed at the bottom end such that the side panels and the bottom panel define a box cavity and the top end defines a box opening. A shoulder is attached to two side panel and extends inward from the side panels into the box cavity, wherein each shoulder is spaced from the top end a predetermined distance. A box top covers the box opening, the box top being selectively movable about and between a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the top panel engages the shoulders to support the top panel, and in the closed position an upper surface of the top panel is substantially flush with the top end of the box.

The present invention provides a packaging box and a product dispenser, the packaging box comprising a body having a receiving space in which a product is received. The packaging box comprises: a front part which is one of surfaces forming the body, is disposed at the front of the body, and has a front perforated line formed to provide a front opening for opening the receiving space; and a side part which is at least one of the surfaces forming the body, is arranged at a side of the body to be connected to the front part, and has a side perforated line extending from the front perforated line and formed to provide a side opening extending from the front opening toward the side of the body, wherein an opening for taking the product received in the receiving space is formed over both the front part and the side part by the front opening and the side opening.

A portable container and container assembly provides a durable, functional and simple carry-all solution for dry and wet provisions, goods and gear. Exemplary features of various embodiments include one or more of an overmolded pad on the bottom of the container, a removable handle incorporating a releasable retaining structure, a lid that seals within the container cavity and is flush with the outer periphery of the container sidewall and/or has a cellular internal reinforcing structure, a skirt extending around the sidewall that is integral with handle mounts for the handle and/or provides a connection point for external components, and a drop-in tray with a collapsible handle.

A handle produced from non-traditional polymers or natural materials used for dispensing stretch film The handle provides the same functionality as current options but reduces the amount of single use plastic waste associated with stretch film usage.

A storage container includes a body, a lid, and two handles. The body defines a compartment between first and second side walls of the body. The compartment is accessible along a top end of the body. The first and second side walls include respective cavities that are recessed from exterior surfaces of the side walls via rims that define perimeters of the cavities. The lid is connected to the top end of the body and encloses the compartment when in a closed position. The two handles are tethered to the body via cords, and are configured to nest within the cavities of the corresponding side walls when not grasped by a person. First and second ends of the handles are configured to engage opposing portions of the corresponding rim to retain the handle nested in the cavity via an interference fit.

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.

A foldable pizza box and method of preparing the foldable pizza box for disposal. The foldable pizza box includes a plurality of perforations placed on several surfaces thereof, bisecting the foldable pizza box into two symmetrical halves and imparting flexibility to the foldable pizza box along the perforations. The foldable pizza box includes triangular punch-outs, formed by perforations, that add additional flexibility to the foldable pizza box when displaced or removed. The foldable pizza box may be easily folded along the perforations, thereby making the foldable pizza box more compact. After folding the foldable pizza box, the foldable pizza box may be easily disposed in a waste or recycling receptacle.

The present invention relates to a sheetlike composite comprising, as mutually superposed layers, a) a carrier layer, b) a barrier layer, and c) an inner polymer layer,
wherein the sheetlike composite has a multitude of groove lines arranged and configured such that, by folding the sheetlike composite along the groove lines and joining seam areas of the sheetlike composite thereby obtaining seams, a closed container is obtainable, wherein the closed container has a roof area, wherein a first portion of the groove lines of the multitude of groove lines at least partly forms a circumference of a first part-area of the roof area, wherein the groove lines of the first portion, relative to the first part-area of the roof area, have at least partly convex curvature, wherein the first part-area of the roof area has a first length in a longitudinal direction and has a second length in a circumferential direction at right angles to the longitudinal direction, wherein a ratio of the first length to the second length is in a range from 0.2 to 2.0. The invention further relates to methods of producing a sheetlike composite, a container precursor and a closed container, and to the aforementioned method products; to a further container precursor; to a further closed container; and to a use of the sheetlike composite.
