The invention relates to a method for packaging educational kits, in particular, for packaging construction sets, logic and board games, and teaching-aid kits. A container, which is part of the packaging, is used simultaneously for storage, for assessing the completeness of a set, for sorting components into sections, for assembling complex models, and for exchange between individuals or groups. The technical result is achieved with the aid of a graphic identifier, which specifies the location of each component according to a particular shape and/or color. The graphic identifier is applied to the upper or lower surface of a container's lodgment plate. A building element and its specific identifier are arranged alongside one another so as to be visible simultaneously, making a mismatch of the two items impossible to miss; the completeness of the entire kit is easily determined on the basis of all the components matching their specific identifiers.

A transparent film includes a first portion configured to form at least a portion of a first compartment of a multi-component package. The film also includes & second portion, con figured to form at least a portion of a second compartment of the multi-component package. The film further includes a barrier coating disposed on the first portion to reduce permeation of a migratory species through the first portion relative to the second portion.

The plastic vial for dispensing highly viscous or semisolid materials is formed of two sheets of thermoformable plastic. Sheets are thermoformed to form a raised profile defining a cavity. The profile has a spout portion with a parting line extends across the spout portion through particular sheet. A bending top portion of the vial snaps the parting line forming an opening in the spout to permit access to the contents.

A container for receiving a bag filled with a fluid, in particular a biopharmaceutical fluid, wherein connector tubing is attached to the bag. The container includes a dish portion and a lid portion, and the dish portion is divided into a main compartment of the container and a tubing compartment of the container. The lid portion includes a main portion, a tubing portion, and a hinge between the main portion and the tubing portion, and the hinge is adapted to allow for an opening of the tubing portion while the main portion remains closed, such that the bag remains protected in the main compartment while the connector tubing in the tubing compartment is accessible from the outside.

A package (1) containing portions of beverage precursor for the preparation of a beverage in a beverage preparation device by mixing liquid with at least one portion of the beverage precursor in the form of a portioning band (3) comprising a pair of packaging sheets (4, 5) sealed to one another for enclosing and sealing the portions individually and separately in a substantially oxygen impervious manner by the sheets being sealed together about each portion, wherein the portions take the form of substantially spherical shapes which are covered on each side of the band by a sheet being formed with cavities (16, 17) to receive a part of each portion and wherein at least one of the sheet can be cut or torn at least partially about each portion for removal of each portion individually.

A transparent film includes a first portion configured to form at least a portion of a first compartment of a multi-component package. The film also includes & second portion, con figured to form at least a portion of a second compartment of the multi-component package. The film further includes a barrier coating disposed on the first portion to reduce permeation of a migratory species through the first portion relative to the second portion.

The present invention relates to a package (7) for pharmaceutical blister packs (12) comprising means (11) for removing the protecting foil of the blister packs. The package protects the blister packs (12) and at the same time provides an easy and convenient way of opening the blister pack for people at all level of ability and dexterity.

Films including a water-soluble polymeric material and a vapor-deposited inorganic coating are disclosed. The water-soluble polymeric material may comprise polyvinyl alcohol. The vapor-deposited inorganic coating may include a metal oxide. The vapor-deposited inorganic coating may include a plurality of microfractures. The films may form part of a package and/or a water-soluble unit dose article.

A package for a frozen food includes a plurality of spherically-shaped portions of hard ice cream. A first sealing member at least partially conforms to the shape of each spherical portion of the plurality of spherically-shaped portions. A second sealing member is adhered to the first sealing member. The first and second sealing members cooperatively form a plurality of storage cavities. Each storage cavity selectively encloses a corresponding spherical portion of the plurality of spherically-shaped portions, wherein each corresponding spherical portion includes a concave depression.

Disclosed is a confectionery packaging for a confectionery, including a first preformed part and a second part, wherein the first and second parts are sealed together about the confectionery at flanges that extend away from a main surface of each part, each main surface substantially conforming to the shape of the confectionery and being inherently unstable when placed, in use, on a substantially flat, level surface; a portion of at least one of the flanges being arranged to, in use, contact the substantially flat, level surface when a portion of the main surface of one of the parts also contacts the substantially flat, level surface, wherein such an arrangement allows the confectionery packaging to adopt a stable orientation on the substantially flat, level surface.
