Patent number: 8722163Abstract: A thermoplastic article includes one or more recyclable-friendly synthetic coloring pigments. The pigment has a melting temperature that is about 20 to about 50° C. higher than that of the base polymer.

Publication number: 20130284616Abstract: A beverage cup carrier is formed of a single sheet of paperboard, stored flat and then folded into the carrying configuration upon time of use. An array of holes is arranged about a centerline, and first and second fold lines are equally spaced oppositely from the centerline, outside the array of holes and parallel to the first pair of edges to form a base. First and second flaps extend from the fold lines and are folded along the fold lines inward to the base. A handhold cutout is formed at a first end of the first flap, and a tab, generally of the shape of the handhold cutout, at a first end of the second flap. The tab of the second flap is inserted through the slot of the first flap to interlock first and second flaps.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2013Publication date: October 31, 2013Applicant: Asean Trading and Shipping Inc., dba Asean CorporationInventor: Asean Trading and Shipping Inc., dba Asean Corporation
