The invention provides a bottle having at least three layers in which the outer and inner layers contain a metallocene polyethylene polymer and the middle layer comprises virgin high density polyethylene, regrind and post-consumer recycled resin, with the bottle having at least% light transmittance in the visible spectrum.

Bottle containing recycled polymers

A container for dispensing a flowable fluid which has a first liquid and a second liquid disposed within a single chamber and which are separated and positioned one above the other. The container includes a bottle base, a bottle body which extends upward from the bottle base to a bottle finish, a fitment having a pouring spout and is arranged on the bottle body at an end opposite the base. The fitment has a first pouring opening from which a first liquid is dispensed and a second opening from which a second liquid is dispensed. A diptube is connected to one of the pouring openings projects downward from toward the bottle base. The diptube conveys the liquid on the bottom to a pouring spout while the liquid on top is conveyed to the pouring spout by the other pouring opening.

Container for dispensing a dual phase fluid product

The present inventors have discovered a new vent which can be used in a venting closure and particularly in venting closures for large heavy duty liquid detergent and other liquid laundry product containers. In one embodiment, the vent comprises a wall, a vent opening in the wall, and one or more spacers on the surface of a face of the wall. Most especially the spacers are protuberances, especially rounded protuberances. A liner is adhered to a portion of the surface of the face and spaced from the vent opening by the spacers. The liner is made of a material which permits air to pass through the vent hole, but preferably, the liner material does not permit liquids to pass through the vent hole. In an especially preferred embodiment, the liner is comprised of a tetrafluoroethylene polymer. In a most preferred embodiment the application is also directed to a venting closure.

Container

A tipping rack, especially for large heavy duty liquid detergent containers. The tipping rack facilitates pouring the last portions of product from the container.

Tipping rack for bottle

A volatile substance dispenser is provided which provides an indication of the dissipation of a quantity of volatile substance by changing an electrical signal level after a time duration corresponding to an expected period time for the quantity of volatile substance to disseminate. A heat source causes the volatile substance to disseminate into the atmosphere. Dissipation of the volatile substance is indicated. For example, dissipation may be indicated by a light bulb burning out where the light bulb is a limited duration bulb with a lifetime that corresponds to the quantity of volatile substance. The dispenser may be disposable and may also serve as a night light.
