Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a reinforced thermoplastic bag (e.g., comprising a bag-in-bag). In one or more embodiments, the reinforced thermoplastic bag includes a reinforced portion at a top-of-bag area where users often apply an external force to lift or carry the reinforced thermoplastic bag. In these or other embodiments, a grab-zone reinforcement insert is positioned across one or both of a hem channel region and a grab-zone along an outer surface, an inner surface, or between layers of the reinforced thermoplastic bag. In one or more embodiments, the grab-zone reinforcement insert comprises multiple layers (e.g., of a non-woven material). For example, the grab-zone reinforcement insert includes a first and second layer formed by a fold. In other implementations, the grab-zone reinforcement insert includes separate, discrete layers. In one or more embodiments, at least a portion of the grab-zone reinforcement insert is positionally affixed via a hem seal.

Abstract: An activatable wrap material includes a film material a first side and a second side opposite the first side. The wrap material includes a plurality of protrusions extending outward from the first side of the wrap material and oriented in a pattern across the first side of the wrap material and a plurality of planar portions defined within the first side of the wrap material and throughout the plurality of protrusions. The wrap material exhibits an average peel adhesion force, when activated against a surface, between about 1.50 g/in to about 3.25 g/in. The wrap material further exhibits an average roll unwind force, when wound on a roll, between about 1.50 g/in to about 5.0 g/in. The wrap material also exhibits an average blocking force, when contacting itself, between about 0.4 g/in2 to about 1.30 g/in2.

Abstract: Pre-moistened multi-layer wipes in which the fibrous substrate for the wipes comprises 70% or more pulp fibers. The present wipes are specifically tailored to include multiple layers that are adhered to one another with a water-resistant adhesive, e.g., which will maintain good peel strength, even when the multi-layer substrate is loaded with a cleaning composition during manufacture, and stored in such condition for an extended period (e.g., a shelf life of a year or more). The water-resistant adhesive may specifically comprise a ethylene vinyl acetate (e.g., rather than polyvinyl alcohol or other adhesives which do not adequately maintain peel strength), loaded between the layers of the substrate, e.g., up to 10 gsm. The wipe may have a peel strength of at least from 0.15 lbf-in, even after being soaked in the cleaning composition. Such pulp substrate wipes are formed from sustainable materials, while providing desired characteristics of strength and efficacy.
