The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing and filling a package with a powdered nutritional product, such as infant nutrition or milk formula, the method comprising providing a thermoformed tub having sidewalls and a base defining a product receiving space, filling the product receiving space with the powdered nutritional product, and sealing a membrane across an open mouth of the tub to seal the product therein; and folding a carton blank with a plurality of panels around the filled tub to form a carton sleeve, wherein the carton sleeve comprises a peripheral wall enclosing at least the sidewalls of the tub.

The invention also relates to a package for such a powdered nutritional product manufactured according to this method.

Presented is a closure assembly and a method for opening. The closure assembly includes a body, the body defining an opening and a body locking portion, and a lid, the lid moveably affixed to the body and comprising a lid locking portion, the lid locking portion configured to engage the body locking portion to releasably lock the lid in the closed position. The closure assembly also includes a hinge, the hinge being affixed to the lid and the body, the hinge configured to move the lid from a closed position occluding the opening of the body to an open position permitting passage through the opening, the hinge further configured to urge the lid into the open position, and at least one spring member.

This invention relates to the design and construction of a novel sample cup including an integral venting cap for use in XRF Spectroscopy.

This invention relates to the design and construction of a novel sample cup including an integral venting cap for use in XRF Spectroscopy.

A closure for a container includes an annular base to be fixed to the upper rim of a container and a lid. The lid is adapted to be moved to an open position, in which access is gained to the container. A locking member is attached to the base and to the lid so as to lock the lid relative to the base such that movement of the lid relative to the annular base is prevented. The locking member includes at least one tamper-evident lug welded to an attachment surface of the lid or the annular base and a frangible connection integrally adjoining the tamper-evident lug.

A tool and method for forming a container from a construct. The tool comprising a cavity for receiving a construct, a core operatively associated with the cavity and being operable to move into the cavity, an injection cavity for receiving injection-molding material and directing injection-molding material around at least a portion of the perimeter of the construct, and a clamping feature. The clamping feature is operatively connected to at least one of the cavity and the core and is for clamping a peripheral portion of the construct as the core moves into the cavity to form the construct into the container.

A container arrangement is described. The container arrangement comprises a container configured to store one or more contents therein. The container is formed of a glass material. The container arrangement further comprises a sleeve configured to surround the container. The sleeve is formed of a silicone material. The container arrangement further comprises a cap configured to switch between an open state and a closed state. In the closed state, the cap is configured to prevent access to the one or more contents within the container.

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.

Cleanup kits including both wet wipes and dry wipes. In accordance with a first example, a cleanup kit includes a first dispenser containing wet wipes and having a first accessible opening to allow the wet wipes to be dispensed therethrough. The cleanup kit also includes a second dispenser containing dry wipes and having a second accessible opening to allow the dry wipes to be dispensed therethrough. The cleanup kit also includes a carrying handle projecting upwardly from the first and second dispensers and heat sealed to both the first dispenser and the second dispenser to couple the first and second dispensers together. The first and second dispensers are discrete dispensers having separate housings and separate lids.

Collapsible bottles and methods of use are disclosed in which the bottle is fabricated, collapsed at a body section including circular or spiral folds, provided with a condensed or concentrated substance, and sealed. Subsequently, the bottle may be unsealed, expanded, provided with a liquid, sealed, and mixed to bring the substance to a desired concentration or consistency.
