Disclosed are packaging systems and method useful in extending the storage-life of foodstuff such as fresh fish. The packaging systems and methods can be used to transport or store the foodstuff for an extended period of time. The packaging systems preferably use a fuel cell to maintain a reduced oxygen level in the environment surrounding the foodstuff.

The present specification discloses an insert for a fluid product container that provides one or optionally both of a fluid aeration insert, that aerates the fluid product during the pour, and a cryogenic additive insert, that protects the fluid product container from exposure to the extreme low temperatures of a cryogenic additive, such as liquid nitrogen, that can cause damaging interaction with the container lining that exposes fluid product to the bare metal of the container, negatively affecting the flavor or safety of a beverage and/or causing structural damage to the container. The cryogenic additive insert provides a cryogenic additive tray having a cryogenic additive holding concavity that receives and hold a cryogenic additive during the filling process such that the cryogenic additive is isolated from the walls of the container. The fluid aeration insert includes a multiplicity of aeration openings through which the fluid product must flow during pouring.

A configurable container includes a first divider and a container body. The divider has a divider body and a first projection extending from the divider body, wherein the first projection has a length having a first dimension and a width having a second dimension different than the first dimension. The container body includes a first wall that includes a first groove facing inward toward the internal cavity, wherein the first groove has a width configured to receive the width of the first projection of the first divider in a first orientation. At least one of the first wall and a second wall includes a second groove also facing inward toward the internal cavity, wherein the second groove has a width configured to receive the length of the first projection in a second orientation, wherein the width of the second groove is different than the width of the first groove.

A personal aqueous dispensing system (PADS) and a personal oil dispensing system (PODS) feature common components each with a drip-catch. Both systems utilize nitrogen to extend the life of a consumable liquid or oil. The PODS incorporates a vent to facilitate flow of air into a bottle by preventing formation of airlock. Both systems feature dispensing control using a quarter turn rotation to control dispensing flow and both include a lid. The dispensing systems also features a switching device that triggers the filling of bottles with nitrogen.

A modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) lid (100) is provided. The lid includes a base (102); a sachet receiving surface (106) having a plurality of holes (110); and a raised perimeter wall (108) enclosing and defining the sachet receiving surface, wherein the sachet receiving surface lies level with or above the base. Also provided is a MAP container (150) including a MAP lid described herein, a dry chemical sachet (170) for placement on the sachet receiving surface; an adhesive patch (180) for sealing onto the raised perimeter wall to retain the dry chemical sachet on the sachet receiving surface; and a MAP carton.

Provided herein are dietary supplement compositions comprising a plurality of beadlets and an oil. Provided herein are also dietary supplement compositions comprising a plurality of mini-tabs and oil. The beadlets or mini-tabs comprise at least one nutrient that is miscible in aqueous solution, and the oil comprises at least one fat-soluble nutrient. The composition may be contained within one or more capsules, and be packaged with a scented insert.

The present invention discloses carrier used for preparing beverage and method for fabrication thereof. Said carrier has primarily components comprising a sealing lid, a filter and a paper-made container, wherein by mold assembly of wet-fiber paper-molding process, solid geometric shape of said paper-made container is integrally formed, and by demolding of said paper-made container along a demolding direction corresponding to said mold assembly, annular cup wall of said paper-made container is laterally formed with at least one protrusive portion, having central axis paralleling with said demolding direction, and after a number of said paper-made containers are one-by-one nested in alignment into a stack assembly, said at least one protrusive portion acts on ensuring that said respective paper-made container is one-by-one drawn from said number of paper-made containers of the stack assembly while passing through picking of component-assembling production line, thereby assembling corresponding components to constitute said respective corresponding carrier.

A laminated package for solid products in powder or grain form, includes a set of stiffening notches, a dispensing mouth with a seal, valves for loading inert gas, in which the lateral folds of the upper face are folded inwards under the front and rear flaps, and the lateral folds of the lower face are folded outward and folded and stuck on the lower face over the front and rear flaps, and a method for forming the package.

A humidity controlled package that uses a humidity sensitive valve that opens and closes an opening to control a humidity in the package. The package has a package holding area inside the package. The humidity level in the package controls the valve to open to allow air flow between an inside of the valve and an outside of the valve, and close to prevent air flow between the inside and outside of the valve. At least part of the valve is in the package. In one embodiment, the package is vented when the humidity value gets higher than a setpoint. In another embodiment, a sachet of dessicant is opened by the humidity level.

A packaging for a medical device and medicament comprising a packaging body having first and second regions. A medicament delivery device is received in the first region and a medicament container is received in the second region. The medicament delivery device includes a chamber configured to receive the medicament container. The packaging body includes a hinge between the first and second regions such that the first and second regions are pivotable about the hinge from a storage position in which the first and second regions are spaced apart to a loading position in which the first region lies adjacent the second region. The chamber and medicament container are equidistantly spaced from the hinge such that the medicament container is loaded into the chamber when the first and second regions are pivoted into the loading position.
