Patent number: 12187514Abstract: A direct-to-consumer heat shrunk bundled product made up of a plurality of paper product rolls each individually packaged by a first package material and arranged relative to one another so as to form a bundle, the bundle being packaged by a second package material, wherein a substantial portion of the inner surface of the second package material is in contact with the first package material of the plurality of paper product rolls and is nonstick relative to the first package material. The bundle includes fused end seals so that the bundle does not include open gussets that might otherwise catch on machinery during sorting and shipping. The packaging material and/or wrapper may include laser energy absorbing material or adhesive.Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2023Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: FIRST QUALITY TISSUE, LLCInventors: Chris B. Anklam, Byrd Tyler Miller, IV, Justin S. Pence, James E. Sealey, II

Patent number: 9840812Abstract: A method of making a multi-ply absorbent product having a wet scrubbing resistance greater than 120 revolutions and a basis weight of between 30 and 50 grams per square meter. A heated adhesive is applied between two single plies/webs, the multiple plies are embossed according to particular parameters, and the embossed webs are compressed with a marrying roll. The adhesive is heated to a temperature of between approximately 32° C. to 66° C. for application between the multiple plies. For each ply, the embossed area generally occupies between approximately 5 to 15% of the total surface area of a surface of the ply, the depth of embossment of the surface is generally between approximately 0.28 and 0.43 centimeters deep, and the embossment of the surface is generally between approximately 0.04 to 0.08 square centimeters in size.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2017Date of Patent: December 12, 2017Assignee: FIRST QUALITY TISSUE, LLCInventors: Byrd Tyler Miller, IV, Justin S. Pence, Karthik Ramaratnam, James E. Sealey, Courtney E. Kessling, Chris B. Anklam, Shannon Gahan, Taras Z. Andrukh

Publication number: 20170328011Abstract: The present invention is directed to structured tissue, and in particular to a structured, multilayer tissue with embossed areas that are laminated and embossed areas that are not laminated. The embossed areas that are laminated allow the plies to hold together during use to provide utility, while the non-laminated embossed areas have higher flexibility, lower strength, and improved softness due to disruption of fiber to fiber bonding imparted during the embossing process. Use of embossments of varying depths allows adhesive to be transferred from an adhesive applicator roll to a web in contact with the patterned emboss roll only at the crests of the embossments of the highest depth before multiple plies are laminated together using a nested embossing lamination process.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 15, 2017Publication date: November 16, 2017Inventors: James E.
