  • Patent number: 7273193
    Abstract: A plastic bag roll, dispensing container and service rack combination allows easy docking and positioning of a dispensing carton into a service rack mountable for varied configurations. The dispensing container is specifically crafted to house a roll of plastic bags. A bag is drawn from the center of the role, pulled along the feed pathway and threaded through the dispensing apertures. The electrostatic binding of the individual bags is balanced against the drag generated along the feed pathway and dispensing apertures to insure smooth and accurate disbursement of a single, hygienically safe plastic bag.

  • Patent number: 7066422
    Abstract: An axial center plastic sheet roll with a coreless roll of multiple, discrete consecutive plastic sheets with an area of overlap on each other in the circumferential direction of the roll such that opposite edges of the sheets in sum total define the opposite ends of the roll. The plastic sheets at the area of overlap possess an electrostatic bond connecting the plastic sheets to one another. The sheets are dispensable from within the center of the roll in the axial direction such that removal of one sheet partially removes the next consecutive sheet. A method of dispensing including dispensing the products from within the center of the roll such that removal of one sheet partially removes the next consecutive sheet.
