Embodiment Construction

[0041] I. Unitized packaging

[0042] The unitized package generally includes a printed substrate and a fluid container permanently bonded to a portion of the substrate. The fluid container includes a first laminated barrier layer encapsulating a product material and a second laminated barrier layer. The first laminated barrier layer includes at least one layer of biaxially oriented thermoplastic polymer, and a portion of the first laminated barrier layer is formed into a modified monolithic dome shape. The second laminated barrier layer is flat.

[0043] Figure 1a shows a first embodiment of the present unitized packaging. The unitized package 10 includes a printed substrate 20 and a fluid container 30 . Figure 1b shows a cross-sectional view of the unitized package 10 along A-A in Figure 1a. As shown in FIG. 1 b , the fluid container 30 includes a first laminated barrier layer 40 and a second laminated barrier layer 50 . The first laminate barrier layer 40 has an inner ...

Abstract

The invention generally relates to unitized packages for containing and dispensing a product material. In particular, the unitized packages comprise a printed base card and a fluid vessel permanently bonded to the printed base card. The fluid vessel comprises a first laminate barrier layer comprising at least one layer of a biaxially oriented thermoplastic polymer, a portion of which is formed into a modified dome shape, and a planar second laminate barrier layer. The first and second laminate barrier layers are sealed together to form a fluid-tight enclosure, wherein the product material substantially fills the enclosure and the modified dome shape is resiliently sustainable. A method of manufacturing the unitized packages as described above is also provided. In particular, the method includes forming a portion of the first laminate barrier layer comprising the biaxially oriented polymer into the modified dome shape using a force such as pressurized gas.

Description

technical field [0001] Generally, the present invention relates to unit packs for containing and distributing product materials. Specifically, the unitized package includes a printed substrate and a fluid container permanently bonded to a portion of the substrate. The fluid container includes: a first laminated barrier layer comprising at least one layer of biaxially oriented thermoplastic polymer, a portion of which is formed into a modified dome shape; and a flat second laminated barrier layer. The invention also relates to methods of making such unitized packages. Background technique [0002] Squeezable containers are used in packaging and dispensing various formats of cosmetic, personal care and household products. Metal tubes are examples of such containers. The metal tube is airtight and thus provides protection to the product material contained in the tube for long-term storage. However, metals, such as aluminum foil, are difficult to form, and metal tubes are of...
