Container

Provided herein are pouched products including a chromogenic material or an electronic component, wherein the chromogenic material and the electronic component are responsive to a stimulus. The stimulus may be a change in pH, a change in temperature, or exposure to moisture. Such pouched products can be employed to detect various changes associated with the pouched product.

Pouch

The disclosure provides oral pouched products including a fleece material with a controlled basis weight. In some embodiments, the oral pouched products may include a material within a porous pouch, wherein the porous pouch includes a fleece material having a basis weight of at least about 35 gsm. In some embodiments, the oral pouched products may include fleece materials have a thickness of at least about 0.2 mm or less than about 0.1 mm. In some embodiments, the pouched products may be configured for rapid or extended release of components contained therein or may be tailored to provide a desired release profile.

Fleece for pouched product with controlled basis weight

The disclosure provides oral products, the oral products including a fleece material that includes fibers and a releasable component. In some embodiments, oral products as described herein may be in the form of a pouchless product including a fleece material having a releasable component associated therewith, or in the form of a pouched product including a fleece material having a releasable component associated therewith in the form of a pouch, containing a substrate material therein.

Colored pouch

A unit for mixing and dispensing an aerosol precursor composition, and containers to be dispensed therefrom. The unit includes a plurality of bulk material filling stations, the plurality of bulk material filling stations have at least one first filling station with aerosol former and at least one second filling station with a flavor material for creating the aerosol precursor. The unit also includes a bulk consumable pack staging a plurality of containers configured to receive the aerosol precursor, and a robot configured to retrieve a container from the bulk consumable pack and move the container through at least two dimensions to stop at at least two of the plurality of bulk material filling stations.

Dispenser unit for aerosol precursor

The present disclosure relates to electronic smoking articles exhibiting improved moisture control of a reservoir contained therein. The reservoir can be formed of fibrous materials, such as cellulose acetate fiber, thermoplastic fiber, non-thermoplastic fiber, or a combination thereof. The disclosure further provides methods for forming electronic smoking articles and methods of packaging electronic smoking articles (including cartridges thereof) so as to improve moisture control of the reservoir.

Electronic smoking article with improved storage of aerosol precursor compositions

A unit for mixing and dispensing an aerosol precursor composition, and containers to be dispensed therefrom. The unit includes a plurality of bulk material filling stations, the plurality of bulk material filling stations have at least one first filling station with aerosol former and at least one second filling station with a flavor material for creating the aerosol precursor. The unit also includes a bulk consumable pack staging a plurality of containers configured to receive the aerosol precursor, and a robot configured to retrieve a container from the bulk consumable pack and move the container through at least two dimensions to stop at least two of the plurality of bulk material filling stations.

Methods and machines are provided for forming a five-sided carton of packages of smoking articles. A piece of film material is applied to a plurality of packages of smoking articles such that five sides of the plurality of packages are at least partially covered by the film material, but the sixth side remains uncovered. The film material is applied such that the group of packages is sufficiently tightly bound so that none of the packages may slip free from the carton. The sixth side of the plurality of packages in the carton remains exposed so that tax stamps may be easily applied. The film of material may be applied so that a gap is formed relative to the sixth side.
