Abstract: A flexible package, such as a facial tissue pocket pack, is provided with a rigid mirror, affixed to the package with an overlying adhesive label, to enable a user to clearly see his/her reflection.

Abstract: A container particularly well suited to hold premoistened wipes is described. The container can be formed primarily from flat polymeric sheets. In one embodiment, for instance, the container can be formed and loaded with a stack of wipes all in a single process. Further, the flat polymeric sheets used to form the container can be printed with various graphics during formation of the container so as to apply any suitable graphics to the container. Through the process of the present disclosure, containers can be formed having a sleek and compact design.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to wet wipe dispensing systems for dispensing wet wipes capable of changing temperature upon use. In one embodiment, the dispensing system includes a wet wipe container and a lotion container that is held in assembly with the wet wipe container that contains a lotion that is kept separate from the wet wipes until the wet wipe is dispensed from the wet wipe container. The lotion includes a microencapsulated delivery vehicle that contains a temperature change agent that is capable of generating a temperature change upon contact with an aqueous solution. Once the wet wipe is dispensed from the system, an applicating device can apply the lotion to the wet wipe to facilitate contact between the temperature change agent in the microencapsulated delivery vehicle and the aqueous solution of the wet wipe.

Abstract: In a dispensing system and process for dispensing a warm wet wipe, a wet has an aqueous solution and microencapsulated delivery vehicles including a temperature change agent capable of generating a temperature change upon contact with the aqueous solution. An activating device facilitates rupturing of the microencapsulated delivery vehicles as the wet wipe is removed from a wet wipe container to allow contact between the temperature change agent and the aqueous solution of the wet wipe to thereby dispense a warm wet wipe. In another embodiment the wet wipe in the container has an aqueous solution. A lotion having the microencapsulated delivery vehicles is disposed in a lotion container free from contact with the wet wipe. An applicator in communication with the lotion is operable to apply the lotion to the wet wipe while the wet wipe is disposed at least in part within the wet wipe container.

Abstract: In a dispensing system for dispensing wet wipes, a wet wipe has an aqueous solution and microencapsulated delivery vehicles including a temperature agent, and is disposed in a wet wipe container. A cartridge is held in assembly with the wet wipe container and has an activating device that facilitates rupturing of the microencapsulated delivery vehicles as the wet wipe is removed from the dispensing system to allow contact between the temperature change agent and the aqueous solution of the wet wipe to thereby dispense a warm or cooled wet wipe. In another embodiment, the wet wipe has an aqueous solution and a lotion having the microencapsulated heat delivery vehicles disposed in the cartridge free from contact with the wet wipe. The cartridge also has an applicator that is operable to apply the lotion to the wet wipe as the wet wipe is removed from the wet wipe container.

Abstract: A container cap can comprise: a covering comprising a first panel, a skirt in contact with the first panel, and a dispensing window attached to the first side of the first panel. The first panel can have an outer periphery and an inner periphery and a first side and a second side. The dispensing window can be attached to the first side of the first panel. The dispensing window can have a dispensing aperture capable of allowing dispensing of an article through the dispensing aperture.

Abstract: A film having a Fresnel lens is placed adjacent a design to create a three-dimensional image. The film can be used separately or laminated to a substrate to create enclosures such as cartons, dispensers, or containers.

Abstract: A textured or soft-feel exterior surface of a carton can be created by applying a coating material to the carton prior to filling the carton with a consumer product such as facial tissue. In one embodiment, the carton is then filled with the consumer product after which the coating material is activated by heating to form the textured surface. By activating the coating material after filling the carton, the carton is able to be processed on existing equipment, and the soft-feel material is less likely to be damaged by the machinery during the filling operation.

Abstract: The present invention provides a process of personalizing or customizing a container or dispenser for a customer or shopper. More specifically, the present invention relates to a process of mass personalization or customization of containers or dispensers containing useable products.
