The use of hemp paper for use in bags or newsprint.

An insulated bag includes a pair of opposing main panels; and a pair of opposing side panels, each side panel attached to each main panel, the main panels and the side panels defining a bag cavity within the insulated bag; the main panels and the side panels defined in an insulated blank, the insulated blank including a first paper layer; and a paper fiber pad coupled to the first paper layer, the paper fiber pad having paper reinforcement fibers interlocked with about 2% to about 25% by weight of a meltable PE/PP bi-component thermoplastic binder fiber distributed substantially randomly, wherein subjecting the repulpable shipping container to a repulpability test produces greater than 85% fiber yield.

A bag for loose material, wherein the bag is formed from a tubular material, which tubular material is a tubular planar assembly or a flat material connected to form a tube, and has a first and a second open end. Sections of the tubular material of one of the ends are shaped by folding to form a bag bottom. The bag bottom exhibits a first cover sheet and a second cover sheet. The first cover sheet is connected to the bag bottom and extends in a first region of the bag bottom. The second cover sheet is connected to the bag bottom and extends in a second region of the bag bottom. Via the cover sheets, the folded sections of the tubular material are held together in such a way that the bag bottom is sealed.

A bag for bulk material made of paper and/or other sheet material, having at least one bottom formed in a cross bottom or block bottom folding manner, the bottom fold having two side flaps which are folded about side fold lines extending in the longitudinal direction of the bottom to form the bottom, the side flaps forming an overlap in the closed state, the width of the overlap being a maximum of 10 millimeters, preferably a maximum of 6 millimeters and further preferably a maximum of 4 millimeters.

A flat-bottomed bag is formed from a flexible sheet that initially is flat prior to being manipulated to form the bag. The sheet is a laminate of a first web and a second web laminated together by an adhesive layer disposed between the webs. The sheet defines a plurality of serially connected side wall panels collectively defining a vertically extending side wall of the bag, and a plurality of bottom panels respectively connected to the side wall panels at respective fold lines. The bottom panels are folded about the fold lines and are attached together to form a flat bottom wall configured to support the bag in an upright orientation. The adhesive layer is in a partial-coverage pattern that includes adhesive-free regions located along each fold line between each bottom panel and the respective side wall panel connected therewith.

A packaging bag has a bag body formed from a flat web and has a first front wall and a second front wall as well as a stand-up bottom formed in a bottom section by folding and gluing the front walls. The flat web has a varnish coating on an outside of the bag body, wherein the first front wall has an adhesive region free of the varnish coating in the bottom section of the bag body.

What is disclosed is a method of constructing a pager bag having looped attachments wherein the method comprises forming a predetermined construction from paper bag paper.

A side gusset paper container in which in the region of the transition of the front wall to a first part of the container bottom region, there is a first pre-crease, and in which in the region of the transition of the rear wall into a second part of the container bottom region, there is a second pre-crease. Furthermore, the disclosure relates to a method for producing a side gusset paper container, in which at least one or a plurality of linear pre-creases are formed in the inner side of a paper web. Additionally, the disclosure relates to a use of the side gusset paper container according to the disclosure as a compost collecting and/or carrying container and/or as a fillable container which is self-standing in the unfilled state.

An insulated bag includes a pair of opposing main panels; and a pair of opposing side panels, each side panel attached to each main panel, the main panels and the side panels defining a bag cavity within the insulated bag; the main panels and the side panels defined in an insulated blank, the insulated blank including a first paper layer; and a paper fiber pad coupled to the first paper layer, the paper fiber pad having paper reinforcement fibers interlocked with about 2% to about 25% by weight of a meltable PE/PP bi-component thermoplastic binder fiber distributed substantially randomly, wherein subjecting the repulpable shipping container to a repulpability test produces greater than 85% fiber yield.

An embodiment includes a bag comprising mesh and film side walls and a reinforcing strip of film; wherein (a) the mesh side wall is sealed to opposing side edges of the film side wall; (b) the reinforcing strip of film is sealed to an upper portion of the mesh side wall and to the opposing side edges of the film side wall; (c) the film side wall has a bottom extension, which is monolithic with the film side wall, extending upwardly and sealed along a lateral extent of a bottom portion of the mesh side wall; (d) the film side wall is non-coplanar with a portion of the bottom extension; (e) another portion of the bottom extension is non-coplanar with the mesh side wall; and (f) a horizontal axis intersects the bottom portion of the film side wall and three portions of the bottom extension.
