  • Patent number: 7452590
    Abstract: An insulating label stock or sleeve formed from such label stock includes a thermal insulating layer, which may a fiberfill batt. The batt is laminated to at least one layer of heat shrinkable material, such as a film. The insulated packaging material may be coated with a coating material to enhance printing capabilities. The insulating label stock or sleeve is installed around a container, and after being activated by heating, conforms to the contours of the container. The insulating label stock retains its hot and cold insulative properties after being heat-shrunk.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 7175730
    Abstract: An insulating label stock including a thermal insulating layer, which may be fiberfill batt, is provided. The batt is laminated to at least one layer of film, paper or fabric. Also provided is a method of making the insulating label stock. The insulating label stock may be wrapped around a container, such as a can, bottle or pouch. Further, the insulating label stock may be coated with a coating material so that it is printable, thus imparting both insulating properties and print capability to a container.

  • Patent number: 7170040
    Abstract: A microwave susceptible insulated packaging material includes a thermal insulating layer, which may be a fiberfill batt. The insulating layer is laminated to at least one layer of a co-extruded film which has been coated on one surface with a microwave susceptible material, such as aluminum or aluminum coated with a food-safe contacting polymer sealant. The packaging material can be used to form a container, such as a pouch, or as a label or as a lining for a container. The packaging material may be coated also with a printable coating material.

  • Patent number: 6887541
    Abstract: An insulated packaging material includes a thermal insulating layer, which may a fiberfill batt. The batt is laminated to at least one facing layer of film, paper or fabric. The packaging material can be used as a container, such as a pouch. A food-contacting polymer material is applied to the facing layer to form the inner surface of the pouch. The packaging material may be coated on the outer facing layer with a coating material so that it is printable, thus imparting both insulating properties and print capability to the pouch.
