Pouch including an insulation pad (100) including two juxtaposed cellulose-based sheets (110, 112) and a cellulose-based insulation material (120). The two juxtaposed cellulose-based sheets are laminated together with the cellulose-based insulation material located therebetween. The pouch further includes transverse fold lines (134) in the insulation pad. The pouch further includes two W-shaped folds (140) in the insulation pad. The two W-shaped folds are formed by folding the insulation pad along the transverse fold lines. Portions of a first longitudinal edge (116) of the insulation pad are coupled to each other between the two W-shaped folds in the insulation pad.

Liner for an overpack assembly
11498738 · 2022-11-15 · ·

An overpack assembly and a method of making an overpack assembly, the overpack assembly includes a liner positioned within an overpack. In one embodiment, the method includes making a liner including providing a first sheet including a fitment positioned over a second sheet, the first sheet attached to the second sheet along an attachment seam at an entire perimeter edge. The first sheet is pulled apart from the second sheet at a center of the liner, forming a three-dimensional liner with triangular wings. A vertical seam is formed across each triangular wing, the vertical seam being perpendicular to the attachment seam, where a length of the vertical seam corresponds to the height of the liner when in use. The liner is positioned within the overpack.

Injection-molded composite construct

A frame is injection molded onto a group of panels to form a container. The panels extend at least partially around, and at least partially define, a cavity of the container.

Method for producing a recyclable bag

A process for producing bags comprising: feeding a bottom web, a first side web and a second side web in a conversion process, each of the webs having a first side edge and a second side edge, wherein the first side edge of the first side web is aligned with the first side edge of the second side web, the second side edge of the first side web is aligned with the first side edge of the bottom web, and the second side edge of the second side web is aligned with the second side edge of the bottom web, thereby forming an inverted T-shaped web comprising a base having first and second wing portions and a riser, wherein the first wing portion comprises the bottom web and first side web, the second wing portion comprises the bottom web and the second side web, and the riser comprises the first and second side webs; sewing the first side web to the bottom layer in the first wing portion with a repeating pattern comprising a truncated triangle having a narrow portion and wider portion, and a tab separating the triangles, wherein the narrow portion of the triangle points toward the second side edge of the first side web; sewing the second side web to the bottom layer in the second wing portion with a repeating pattern comprising a truncated triangle having a narrow portion and wider portion, and a tab separating the triangles, wherein the narrow portion of the triangle points toward the second side edge of the second side web; contacting the first and second wing portions by folding them toward each other, thereby forming a folded web; rotating the folded web to the horizontal; sewing the first and second webs together in the riser with a repeating pattern comprising a flat-bottomed U shape with tabs separating the repeating U's, where the flat bottom of the U faces the first side edge of the first and second side webs, and the tabs separating the flat-bottomed U's are bisecting the tab separating the triangles in the first and second wing portions, thereby forming a web of sewn bags; cutting the web along the edge of sewn bags to remove the sewn portion corresponding to the flat bottom portion of the flat bottom U shape parallel to the edge, thereby forming a web of open top bags; and transversely cutting the web of open top bags at the middle of the truncated triangles and bisecting the repeating U's, thereby forming separate, open bags, and optionally scrap material.
