Packaging containers for packaging various materials, including granular, flowable and food materials, are described herein. The packaging containers include conformation induction member(s) that are involved in controlling the contour of the filled container.
B65D 30/10 - Sacks, bags or like containers characterised by shape or construction
B65D 75/52 - Packages comprising articles or materials partially or wholly enclosed in strips, sheets, blanks, tubes or webs of flexible sheet material, e.g. in folded wrappers Details
B65D 85/50 - Containers, packaging elements or packages, specially adapted for particular articles or materials for living organisms, articles or materials sensitive to changes of environment or atmospheric conditions, e.g. land animals, birds, fish, water plants, non-aquatic plants, flower bulbs, cut flowers or foliage
Distorted fragments having a variety of configurations and methods for making such distorted fragments is provided which, because of its increased bulk, can also be used as packing materials, decorative grasses, an animal bedding, cat litter, mulch for soil and a media for plants. The distorted fragments can be produced by extrusion and the extrudate is distorted while in a semi¬ solid state.
A method for forming decorative grass and packaging materials from renewable polymer materials are provided. Methods of utilizing such decorative grasses and renewable polymer materials are also provided.
This invention is related to renewable or biodegradable polymer matenals, and more particularly but not by way of limitation, to flow pot covers and wraps and floral grouping covers and wraps made from such polymeric matenals The present invention relates to methods for producing flower pot covers and methods of wrapping floral groupings and flower pots with renewable or biodegradable polymer matenals to provide a decorative covenng for such floral groupings and flower pots
B65D 85/50 - Containers, packaging elements or packages, specially adapted for particular articles or materials for living organisms, articles or materials sensitive to changes of environment or atmospheric conditions, e.g. land animals, birds, fish, water plants, non-aquatic plants, flower bulbs, cut flowers or foliage
A method for wrapping a floral grouping having a bloom end and a stem end. A wrapper is formed from a sheet of material or bag which is wrapped about at least a portion of the stem end of the floral grouping. The wrapped floral grouping is then positioned within a receiving space of a sleeve whereby the wrapper is secured in a stable position about at least a portion of the stem end of the floral grouping by the sleeve. A detaching element defines the detachable upper portion and a lower portion of the sleeve so that the upper portion can be removed from the lower portion.
A hollow wire (figures 1-27) and method of using the hollow wire to wrap or support a flower stem or floral grouping (28-35), and/or use in construction, crafts, hobbies, or other uses (figures 36-40) In need of wire products.
A flexible floral container comprising an inner membrane for acting as a reservoir or 'catch basin' to minimize water spillage when the flexible floral container having a fluid medium therein is tipped over. The stems of a floral grouping disposed in the flexible floral container provide structural support to the flexible floral container and cooperate to maintain the flexible floral container in a substantially erect condition.
A collapsible and/or erectable, shape-sustaining substantially egg-shaped container is selectively moveable from a substantially erect condition to a substantially collapsed condition and/or from a substantially erect condition to a substantially collapsed condition. The collapsible and/or erectable, shape-sustaining, substantially egg-shaped container may include first and second portions, wherein at least one of the first and second portions is provided with at least one condition modifying element to facilitate erecting and/or collapsing the container. The collapsible and/or erectable, shape-sustaining, substantially egg-shaped container may also include a shape-sustaining member for maintaining the container in a substantially erect condition as well as a retaining member for maintaining the container is a substantially collapsed condition.
A container assembly is provided which includes a container selectively moveable between an erect condition and a collapsed or substantially flattened condition. A packaging material for support objects is disposed within an object receiving space of the container and secured thereto so that the packaging material remains in the object receiving space of the container when the container is in either the erect condition or the collapsed or substantially flattened condition.
B65D 81/02 - Containers, packaging elements, or packages, for contents presenting particular transport or storage problems, or adapted to be used for non-packaging purposes after removal of contents specially adapted to protect contents from mechanical damage
B65D 30/20 - Sacks, bags or like containers characterised by shape or construction with folds, e.g. to facilitate collapsing
B65D 81/03 - Wrappers or envelopes with shock-absorbing properties, e.g. bubble films
