Abstract: The invention provides a seal that forms part of a container for storing and dispensing consumer products. The container can be used in place of conventional blister packs for the packaging of pills, tablets or capsules or multi-cavity containers for organising and storing mixed medication for subsequent dispensation according to a predefined dosage regimen. The container includes a tray having a generally planar top surface into which has been formed one or more discrete cavities for receiving the consumer products. The seal includes a cover film (1) having a pattern of electrically conductive tracks (14) that defines a circuit per cavity. Pre-formed lines of separation (4) define a removable portion (2) per cavity to retain the consumer products in that cavity until it is removed along its line of separation.

Abstract: A dual-purpose seal is provided that forms part of a container for storing and dispensing consumer products. The container can be used in place of conventional blister packs for the packaging of pills, tablets, or capsules or in place of conventional multi-cavity containers for organizing and storing mixed medication for subsequent dispensing according to a predefined dosage regimen. The container includes a tray having a generally planar top surface into which has been formed one or more discrete cavities. The seal includes a cover film having pre-formed lines of separation defining a removable portion, and a barrier film that is secured to the cover film by a layer of peelable adhesive. The barrier film has pre-formed lines of separation defining a barrier patch. The barrier film also includes a heat-sealing adhesive such that the dual-purpose seal can be adhered to the tray in two different ways.

Abstract: The invention provides a seal (10) that forms part of a container for storing and dispensing consumer products. The container can be used in place of conventional blister packs for the packaging of pills, tablets or capsules or multi-cavity containers for organising and storing mixed medication for subsequent dispensation according to a predefined dosage regimen. The container includes a tray (1) having a generally planar top surface (2) into which has been formed one or more discrete cavities (4) for receiving the consumer products. The seal (10) includes a cover film (12) and a barrier film (20). The cover film (12) has pre-formed lines of separation (18) defining a removable portion (16) per cavity to retain the consumer products in that cavity (4) until it is removed along its line of separation.

Abstract: A container for storing and dispensing consumer products comprises a multi-compartment molded tray formed with an array of discrete cavities for receiving consumer products. A cover film is secured to the top surface of the tray to retain the item(s) within the cavities. The cover film has pre-formed tear lines defining peripheries of an array of tear-off portions, each tear-off portion arranged so that it overlies an associated cavity to retain the item(s) in that cavity. Each tear-off portion has an associated lug portion not secured to the tray in use, for gripping by a user before removing the tear-off portion. The top surface of the tray has an array of upwardly extending protrusions positioned to be located beneath the lug portions in use to bend those lug portions upwardly out of the plane of the remainder of the cover film to make the lugs readily graspable by a user.

Abstract: A container for storing and dispensing consumer products comprises a multi-compartment moulded tray (1) formed with an array of discrete cavities (6) for receiving consumer products. A cover film (20) is secured by adhesive to the generally planar top surface (5) of the tray (1) to retain the one or more items within the cavities (6). The cover film has pre-formed tear lines (23) defining the peripheries of an array of tear-off portions (22), each tear-off portion being arranged so that in use it overlies an associated one of the cavities to retain the one or more items in that cavity until it is removed. Each tear-off portion (22) has an associated lug portion (24) not secured to the tray in use, for gripping by a user preparatory to removing the said tear-off portion (22).
