Abstract: A decorated tab for a beverage container has a lift end, a nose end, and central webbing. An enclosed portion of the central webbing has a coating. A symbol is located on the enclosed region which is created by selective removal of the coating by a laser ablation. The symbol has a boundary profile defining a perimeter of the symbol generated by a continuous, uninterrupted vectorized laser dot pattern defining regions of ablated coating. The symbol has an interior portion generated by a plurality of pulsed rasterized laser dots defining further regions of ablated coating.

Abstract: A container for a drink comprised of a bag of flexible plastic material for drink compacting sheets (1,2) welded upon each other by means of spaced longitudinal and transverse seams (3,4,5 and 6) which bag by means of a strip (7) or sheet (23) has been provided with a space for the insertion of a straw (13) such that the welding seams of said strip (7) or sheet (23) are either at a distance from the seams of the bag or coincide with said seams, an opening being provided for the insertion of the straw. The straw is movable within the space for puncturing the inside wall of the space which is elastically deformable and elastically surrounds the outer perimeter of the straw after it has punctured the wall. The straw may be removed if the contents of the bag are only partially consumed, thereby forming a seal by the punctured wall pushing against the outside wall of the space under pressure from the contents therein.

Abstract: Some chemical products are so toxic that they must not come into contact with parts of the human body.
