A method of packing a temperature sensitive product utilizes a temperature controlled product shipper that includes a phase change material bladder which can be filled at the point of packaging. The temperature sensitive product is contained within an product box or master case, which is in turn packed inside an insulated liner and an outer box. The PCM bladder fits between the master case and the insulated liner and is filled with a preconditioned flowable PCM at the point of packing just before closing the box for shipment.

A container for receiving therein a liquid is provided. The container comprises an upper portion, a lower portion opposite thereto, and sidewalls extending therebetween and all defining an enclosed volume therewithin. The upper portion comprises an opening to the volume. The container further comprises a cap configured to be secured to the upper portion for closing the enclosed volume. The upper portion is configured to be connected to the lower portion. The sidewalls are associated with one or more arrangements configured to facilitate connection to sidewalls of similarly constructed containers.

An overpack salvage drum including a drum body and a lid. A bottom wall and side wall of the drum body cooperate to define an interior of the drum body. The lid is configured to close an open top of the drum body. The lid includes at least two independent lid threads to engage with corresponding independent drum threads provided on the drum body. The lid includes a plurality of alternating castellations having a flat inner facing side and castellations having an arcuate inner facing side, which can be interdigitated with castellations on another lid when two lids are stacked together, or can be used to lock with a drum body to rotationally secure a drum body relative to the lid when in a stacked arrangement. The lids include lugs and recesses, or rings that allow for secure stacking of the lids.

The invention relates to a closure cap for a substantially cylindrical vessel, with a lateral surface, a closed end and an open end, and with a tear-open strip having a grip tab for opening the closure cap.

In order to produce closure caps which are designed such that they can be applied by machine to substantially cylindrical vessels, it is proposed within the context of the invention that the lateral surface is substantially cylindrical, at least in the area of the open end, and that the closure cap is of stackable design and has means for stacking at least two closure caps with defined spacing.

The invention is based on the finding that, for cost reasons, it is useful if also closure caps for substantially cylindrical vessels can be stacked, i.e. pushed onto one another, during transport as they then take up less space. In the case of machine-applied closure caps, too, it is advantageous to stack the caps, since the machine can then collect them more easily and prior positioning of the closure cap is superfluous.

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.

A prize storage case 10 for storing a prize 20 of a PET bottle beverage 30 comprises an attachment portion 1 configured to be removably attached to the top of the PET bottle beverage 30, a case portion 3 for storing the prize 20, and a connection portion 7 for detachably connecting the attachment portion 1 and the case portion 3. The case portion 3 comprises a cover portion 4 covering the prize 20 and a base portion 5 provided at the bottom of the cover portion 4 and on which the prize 20 is placed. The case portion 3 is configured to be detached from the attachment portion 1 with the base portion 5 attached to the cover portion 4 when it is detached from the attachment portion 1 via the connection portion 7.

Disclosed herein are child-resistant containers. Also disclosed are methods using the modular containers and methods of storing substances in containers. The containers have a glass base and a plastic cap and provide for child-resistant containers. A user can releasably remove the cap from base with a squeeze and lift sequence on the sides of the cap. For example, the user squeezes opposite sides of the container cap, which releases a locking mechanism and allows for removal of the cap by lifting or pulling the container cap off from the container base. The containers are modular and stackable.

A container for manually mixing contents therein includes a base and a lid, and when formed has a first horizontal axis, a second horizontal axis, and a vertical axis that is perpendicular to the horizontal axes. The base defines an elliptic-shaped base opening and a base chamber having two conjugate diameters D.sub.1 and D.sub.2 proximate the base opening. The lid defines an elliptic-shaped lid opening and a lid chamber having the two conjugate diameters D.sub.1 and D.sub.2 proximate the lid opening. The diameter D.sub.1 extends in a direction of the first horizontal axis and the diameter D.sub.2 extends in a direction of the second horizontal axis. A ratio of D.sub.1 to D.sub.2 is greater than 1. The container also includes grips for manually mixing the contents within the base and lid chambers by rotating the container about the second horizontal axis.
