Abstract: Hotel amenity fluid dispensing assemblies, systems, and methods for refilling empty reuseable jars from a source container positioned on separate scales within a housing. Each container/jar provides an RFID tag identity read by its respective scale RFID reader to provide selective operational parameters. Separate housing tower assemblies are fluidly connected to the central pumping assembly between the tower assemblies to draw product from the source container to the fill jar. Microprocessor-based control is electrically coupled to the pumping assembly, the scales, and RFID readers to turn fluid flow on and off. The control actuates the pumping assembly to dispense a precise amount of the fluid based upon the RFID identity and real time scale readings and activates tower assembly manifold movement to allow for replacement of empty source and full fill jars.

Abstract: A mounting device has a locking housing with a locking arm that pivots between an open, unlocked position, and a closed, locked position. The locking arm extending to a latch end having a latch hole. A bottom end of the dispensing container is placed within a container receiving space of the locking housing, and the locking arm is moved to the closed, locked position to engage the annular groove of the dispensing container to lock the dispensing container within the locking housing. The device further includes a magnetic locking mechanism for locking the locking arm in the closed, locked position.

Abstract: A compostable packaging has 50-70% bamboo fiber, 20-40% sugarcane, and 5-15% wood fiber. Packaging of this material is adapted for use with a variety of materials, and in particular granular shampoo and related cosmetics (e.g. shampoo, conditioner, body wash). In another embodiment, the packaging is adapted for use with medications (e.g. prescription pills, topical medications, vitamins), condiments (e.g. ketchup, mustard, teriyaki, mayonnaise), or other similar materials.
