Prepackaged moistened towelette for storing in limited space

Abstract

According to the invention, a moistened towelette of a reduced size is individually prepackaged in an outer package. The size of the prepackaged moistened towelette makes it particularly useful in storing it in small storage areas, yet the towelette itself is large enough for practical use. The towelette can further be folded or rolled prior to being placed into the package. The package can have various configurations.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present invention relates to disposable moistened towelettes and more particularly to a disposable moistened towelette prepackaged in a manner and size that makes it is particularly useful for use in limited space storage areas. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND PRIOR ART [0002] Moistened towelettes are well known. They are useful for in myriad circumstances. For example, during menses, women typically like to have moistened towelettes with them for sanitary and health purposes. However, most towelettes are of a larger size than is commonly necessary and that makes them difficult and inconvenient to carry on a routine basis. Moreover, towelettes are not generally individually prepackaged but, instead, are sold in multiple towelette containers. Rarely is there need for an entire container of towelettes; it is, therefore, difficult to carry a small number of towelettes at a time. [0003] Due to their limitations, women, in the case of menses for example,...

Problems solved by technology

However, most towelettes are of a larger size than is commonly necessary and that makes them difficult and inconvenient to carry on a routine basis.

Rarely is there need for an entire container of towelettes; it is, therefore, difficult to carry a small number of towelettes at a time.

Due to their limitations, women, in the case of menses for example, will not take traditional moistened towelettes with them because there is no convenient or safe way to store them, and they often do not need a towelette of the typical large size.

However, not having a towelette when the need arises can lead to a woman not being able to clean herself properly or, worse, an embarrassing moment when the situation arises that a towelette is needed.

Additionally, the typical towelette's size limits the ability to store it in a small area, such as in a purse or pocket.

The towelette and its packaging are, therefore, sufficiently large size that it makes it difficult to store in a small, confined area.

This limits the number of towelettes that can be carried to generally one, and forcing the towelette into the device can damage the towelette packaging, rendering the towelette unusable.
