Patent number: 5849384Abstract: A process for the application of a releasable adhesive layer to the floor abutting surface of a ceremonial roll that can be easily unrolled and used to cover a walkway to provide a ceremonial cover therefor is described. This process employs elevated pressures and temperatures within a given time frame to laminated this adhesive layer to the floor abutting surface of the roll. This adhesive is then pressed onto the floor of the walkway itself before the roll is rolled down the aisle or walkway to be used. The adhesive will hold to the floor during the unrolling but can easily be removed by pulling up at an angle of greater than 30.degree. from the floor without being removed from the floor abutting surface of the roll. The adhesive will resist from 10 to 300 pounds of pull at angles less than this 30.degree.. The ceremonial roll may be made from a host of materials but a non-woven, fabric like materials made from long, natural and synthetic fibers are preferred.Type: GrantFiled: December 9, 1996Date of Patent: December 15, 1998Assignee: Hampshire Paper Corp.Inventor: Michael J Stepanek

Patent number: 5353575Abstract: A novel and unique method for the wrapping of an object is described. This method employs a sheet of wrapping material having an upper surface and a lower surface, a first end and a second end and having a tab closure device adhered to one end of said upper surface. When wrapping up an object, the object is laid on the upper surface on an end away from said tab and rolled thereto. The tab closure device comprises a strip of material adhered firmly to the upper surface of said material and folded over, with a small amount of pressure sensitive adhesive applied between the folds. When this is pulled up to exposed the pressure sensitive adhesive, the tab can be used to firmly close the two ends. This material is particularly useful in the quick wrapping of a floral arrangement or grouping.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 1993Date of Patent: October 11, 1994Assignee: Hampshire Paper Corp.Inventor: Stephen Stepanek
