  • Patent number: 7076931
    Abstract: A container made of flexible material with an inherently stable base and a method for manufacturing the container, the container being obtained in the shape of a pouch which has, in the region that will form the base, heat-sealed lateral regions and optionally ribbed guides which, by virtue of the very weight of the material that is introduced or by way of a punch, produce a base which makes the final container inherently stable.

  • Publication number: 20020191872
    Abstract: A pouch-like container with faces made of materials having different consistencies and/or characteristics, particularly for solid, granular or fluid products. Conveniently, one of the two faces is produced from a scarcely flexible sheet, while the other face is produced from a much lighter and preferably transparent sheet in order to show the contained product. The low-flexibility face has ribs to preset a deformability and set the final shape that the container will assume. The container is manufactured by coupling, along longitudinal lines (lateral borders) and transverse lines, two sheets which are unwound continuously from two rolls. The tougher sheet is pre-ribbed along lines which force a controlled deformation, forming the container when it is filled with the product.
