Abstract

A flexible, multi-opening, leak-proof packet having a defined volume for storing and dispensing fluids. A first packet area, e.g., at or near an upper edge is configured to include a capped dispensing outlet. A second packet area, e.g., at or near a lower surface, includes at least one inlet for receiving transfers of fluids for storage. The inlet is selectively closed and opened by a zipper mechanism tab, and sized to facilitate rapid transfers from larger containers. Additional openings may be included along with zipper closures. The packet may be individual or attached in multiples for vending purposes, and are especially useful in an airport setting where carry-on baggage inspectors demand disposal of non-compliant containers if contents are not quickly transferred to compliant containers. These packets can be quickly deployed and collectively stored within a larger, compliant carry-on container. This unique packet is useful in a great variety of fields.
