A biodegradable drinking cup assembly for serving hot and cold beverages includes a cup that defines an interior space. The cup comprises hemp fiber so that the cup is biodegradable. The cup, in an upright configuration, is configured to position a liquid in the interior space. The cup insulates a hot or cold beverage and is configured for composting after use.

The present invention provides a leak-proof portable food and beverage storage container (1000) comprising a box body (200) defining a storage cavity, a lid (400), a ring (600), and a locking mechanism (800). The lid (400) has a groove (410) arranged along edges (420) of the lid (400) and the ring (600) is disposed within the groove (410). The locking mechanism (800) is operationally coupled to the box body (200) and includes a plurality of flaps (810) and a band (820). The plurality of flaps (810) are hingedly connected to the edges (420) and the band (820) is arranged around a rim of the box body (200). Further, the plurality of flaps (810) snap-fits with the band (820) such that the lid (400) is securely fixed to the box body (200) and the ring (600) creates an air-tight seal between the lid (400) and the box body (200).

A single-walled disposable cooler can include: a body including a base and a plurality of support walls coupled to the base, the plurality of support walls and the base defining an interior cavity of the body, and the plurality of support walls extending upwardly from the base to form an opening at an upper terminus of the body in fluid communication with the interior cavity; and a lid configured to reversibly couple with the body, the lid shaped to cover the opening of the body. The body can be made entirely of a pulp-based material.

A sealable container system made of biodegradable materials, including a generally cylindrical, inwardly sloping container body having flattened side portions with holes therein, and a generally cylindrical, inwardly sloping cap with outwardly projecting tabs that are received into the holes to secure the cap onto the container. Inward pressure preleases the tabs from the holes so the cap can be removed without twisting.

An airflow cooling lid for hot beverage containers enables the user to cool down the beverage in the container by blowing outside air across the surface of the beverage without removal of the lid. The airflow cooling lid includes a circular cover snuggly placed over a hot beverage container having a mounting rim, a surface portion, a sipping portal in form of an opening for consuming the beverage, an airflow opening to be used as either the intake or exhaust portal for the air drawn over the surface of the beverage, and a pinhole vent opening for allowing outside air into the container and pressure release in the event both portals are plugged. The airflow portal is angled outward to allow the exhaust air to flow away from the face when blowing through either portal.

The container with a lid and threaded closure mechanism includes a receptacle having a mouth surrounded by a thread, a lid, a sealing ring and a closure mechanism formed by a disc with a hollow interior and a perimetral tubular skirt provided with an engagement configuration complementary to the thread of the receptacle. The closure mechanism surrounds the lid and holds it against the mouth of the receptacle by means of a threaded attachment between the engagement configuration of the closure mechanism and the thread of the receptacle, assuring proper hermetic closure of the lid with the receptacle in cooperation with the sealing ring. The lid and the closure mechanism have mutually engaging elements with a complementary non-circular geometry and size, with both elements being tightly fitted preventing relative rotation of the closure mechanism with respect to the lid.

The container with a hermetic closure has a receptacle having a receptacle opening surrounded by an annular mouth surface, a lid having a front side and a back side intended for being oriented towards the outside and the inside of the receptacle, respectively, a sealing ring arranged between the annular mouth surface of the receptacle and an annular perimetral flange of the lid, and a closure mechanism formed by a shaped metal wire defining a first region coupleable to the lid, a second region being under elastic stress in a closed position and a third region coupleable to the receptacle. The front side of the lid has at least two opposite supporting points in an area coinciding with or adjacent to the annular flange, and the first region of the closure mechanism is configured for being supported, in a closed position, on said at least two opposite supporting points.

The disclosure relates to a fiber material for producing a container, wherein the fiber material comprises fiber structures for ensuring a predetermined barrier property of a container produced from the fiber material. The disclosure further relates to a method for producing a container using the fiber material. In addition, the disclosure relates to a container comprising the fiber material.

Implementations disclosed and claimed herein provide a customized storage system. In one implementation, a folding crate movable between a storage position and a collapsed position is provided. The crate may include a first frame end of a crate having a first frame, a second frame end having a second frame disposed opposite the first frame, and a base panel fixed to and extending between the second frame. The crate may include swinging panels that are releasably secured to the second frame when the crate is in a storage position and rotatable about a swinging axis at the first frame to move the crate into a collapsed position. The crate may also include folding panels pivotally mounted to the first frame and the second frame that are foldable along a folding axis when the crate moves into the collapsed position.

A container for storage is provided which includes, as principle components, a base member (1) and a lid (100) therefor, with the lid (100) in use overlaying said base member (1) in a sealing relationship, with both the base member (1) and lid (100) having associated therewith a strip or base (5.104) of a color different to the remainder of the base member (1) and lid (100) respectively, the strip or band (5) of the base member (1) being of the same color as the strip of band (104) of the lid (100), thereby to allow for ready matching of the lid (100) with container base (1).
