A multi-compartment food package is disclosed including a food bowl to hold a first food (e.g., hummus) and an independent second food container to hold a second food (e.g., a topping to be added to the first food). In one embodiment, a peel-off film is removably attached across the first food container below the top thereof. A lid is detachably connected to the first food container to surround the second food container. The lid has an annular container retaining groove formed therein and extending downwardly therefrom towards the first food container. The second food container is surrounded and frictionally engaged by the annular container retaining groove, whereby the second food container is removably attached to and suspended downwardly from the lid to be received through the top of the first food container and seated on the peel-off film located below the top thereof.

Storage containers and lids for such containers are provided. The lid has a first lid face and a second lid face. The second lid face has a rim configured to attach the lid to a storage bin. On the first lid face and extending to the second lid face is a plurality of apertures to provide airflow through the lid. A seal material extends from the second lid face that is configured to make the airflow path selectively sealable at a continuous wall and closed surface of a corresponding storage bin.

The present invention relates to a packaging (E) for storing automobile parts, in particular for brake pads or any other parts of similar formats for motor vehicles. The packaging (E) is provided with a receptacle (1) closed by a lid (2) which comprises of at least one hinged flap (24). At least one wall (10) of the receptacle (1) comprises of a locking recess (12) with at least one hinged flap (24), said flap (24) provided with a connecting region (27) which determines connection means engages and simultaneously a handle cavity (30). The walls (10) are provided with stiffening segments (120) configured by the recess (12). The packaging (E) comprises of a stacking means configured by the cooperating engagement of a lower rib (13) of the receptacle (1) supported on a bearing edge (43) of the lid (2).

An improved container closure is provided, and a manufacturing process therefor.

Systems and methods for providing compostable food containers which preserve the quality of a food product for an extended duration of time, and which optionally allow for cooking of the food product therein. In some implementations, the food containers are sturdy, stackable, insulating, and require minimal or no manual labor to assemble. In some implementations, the food container includes a base and a cover which cooperate to form a closed chamber for supporting, protecting, insulating and optionally cooking a food product, such as a pizza. The base and cover may each be formed of a single layer of material including, but not limited to, molded sugarcane fiber (bagasse), molded wood fiber, molded bamboo fiber, molded paper or plastic. The base and/or the cover may include one or more detachable portions that may be selectively separable from the remaining portion of the base and/or cover.

Disclosed is a polygonal shaped container 101. The polygonal shaped container 101 may comprise a top surface 105 a bottom surface 205 and a plurality of side walls 206. Each edge (201, 203) connecting two side walls of the polygonal shaped container 101 may be filled with additional reinforcement material. The additional reinforcement material along with the polygonal shape of the polygonal-shaped container 101 may facilitate in enhancing compressive strength of the polygonal-shaped container 101. One of the side walls 206 may further comprise a discharge valve 202 fixed entirely within a cavity 204 formed on a lower surface of said one of the side walls 206 such that lowest level of a fluid, contained in the polygonal-shaped container 101, may be discharged from the discharge valve 202. The polygonal-shaped container 101 may be capable of being rolled for portability.

A container suitable for hot foods includes a base having a wall that is slanted or curved outward from its bottom, and a lid having a rim attachable to the base, an intermediate region that rises upward, and an inner region that does not rise as high, such that when an identical container is stacked thereupon, the upper base is entirely supported by the lower lid intermediate region, forming a gap space between the lower lid inner region and the upper base. One or more ventilation holes in the lid inner region, together with channels in the base wall and/or intermediate region, allow vapor from the lower container to escape from the stack through the ventilation holes, gap space, and channels. The intermediate region can be shaped to support an upper container mainly by compressive forces, further enhancing stacking tolerance to weight and heat.

Disclosed herein are modular container systems having child-resistant containers, tray inserts and tray frames. Also disclosed are methods using the modular container systems and methods of storing substances in containers. The containers have a container base and a container cap and provide for child-resistant containers. A user can releasably remove the container cap from container base with a squeeze and lift sequence. For example, the user squeezes opposite sides of the container base, 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 components of the modular container system are modular and stackable. The modular system allow for organized, efficient, accessible and storage of the child-resistant containers. The modular container system also allows for easy counting, sorting and processing of the containers.

A tableware system is provided that includes a placemat with non-integrated tableware. The placemat includes a substantially planar bottom surface that forms a partial vacuum when provided in contact with an underlying surface and a first fastening mechanism provided at a top surface of the placemat. The tableware includes a second fastening mechanism that corresponds to the first fastening mechanism, the second fastening mechanism being detachably coupled to the first fastening mechanism. A lid is provided that secures to the tableware and includes another first fastening mechanism provided at a top surface thereof. A lock is provided that fixedly secures the first fastening mechanism and the second fastening mechanism. The lock may include a release mechanism that disengages the lock upon application of a force thereto. Alternatively, the lock may be removable by a separate tool that disengages the lock to allow the tableware and the placemat to be detached.
