| 20100273017 | Hybrid Packaging Material - A packaging material includes a polymer film layer, a paper layer, a tie layer joining the paper layer and the polymer film layer, and a pair of opposed sides, each comprising a heat sealable material. The heat sealable material of the second side comprises a blend of linear low density polyethylene, low density polyethylene, and ethylene/methacrylic acid copolymer. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20100273377 | High Strength Packages and Packaging Materials - A packaging material comprises a substrate comprising a woven polymer, a first facing system joined to a first side of the substrate, and a second facing system joined to a second side of the substrate. The first facing system includes an outermost surface defining a first side of the packaging material, and the second facing system includes an outermost surface defining a second side of the packaging material. At least one of the first side and the second side of the packaging material is heat sealable. | 10-28-2010 |
| 20110052106 | Reinforced Bag - A bag has a reinforcement that is configured in a predetermined manner for reinforcing at least a portion of the bag. One or more predetermined areas of the bag may be reinforced. The bag may have one or more layers, and may be reinforced by placing and affixing reinforcing media in selected areas. The nature of the reinforcing media—its dimensions and structural properties—may be selected with respect to targeted uses of the bag. The bag may be subjected to one or more types of potentially failure-causing strain (e.g. bending, twisting, puncture, tensile, compression) during the useful life of the bag. For example, the bag may be stressed during filling the bag with product, top sealing, conveying by hand or machine, loading and stacking, transportation, storage, selling and final use by the consumer. | 03-03-2011 |
