Packaging for a single dose personal care product

The invention relates to a piston for an optionally pressurized container, the piston having a sidewall, an upper side and a bottom side, and at least a first circumferential seal, wherein at least the upper side of the piston is closed by a closure and made of a first elastic material, wherein the upper side is configured to deform upon a pressure change acting on the upper side, wherein the sidewall is made of a second material which is different from the first elastic material, wherein the first circumferential seal is positioned on the sidewall on its outer surface. The invention further relates to an optionally pressurized container comprising a piston as mentioned above, to a process of discharging a product from said container and to a process of manufacturing said container.

Piston with flexible closure for aerosol container

An outer container for an aerosol dispenser and an aerosol dispenser usable with the outer container. The outer container comprises an upper container portion and lower container portion joined at a seal. A piston slideably disposed in the outer container dispenses product under propellant pressure. The lower container portion has a base and integral sidewall with no bung hole, eliminating leakage paths.

Piston aerosol dispenser

Disclosed is a package to dispense a composition, wherein the package comprises:

Package to dispense a foaming composition

Described herein is an aerosol hairspray product including a container including a container wall which encloses a reservoir. The reservoir includes from about 40% to about 70% of a hairstyling formulation and from about 30% to about 60% of a dimethyl ether propellant. The hairstyling formulation includes water, one or more hairstyling polymers, and from about 0.05% to about 2% alcohol. A spraying device is attached to the container. The spraying devices includes a valve including a valve housing including a vapor tap including a vapor tap area. A dip tube is connected to the valve. The dip tube includes a dip tube orifice including a dip tube orifice area. The ratio of the vapor tap area to the dip tube orifice area is from about 0.005 to about 0.15.

Aerosol hairspray product comprising a spraying device

A method of making an outer container for an aerosol dispenser and an aerosol dispenser usable with the outer container. The outer container has an upper container portion and complementary lower container portion. A piston is slideably disposed in the upper container portion. The upper container portion and lower container portion are placed proximate to each other. Propellant is disposed into the lower container portion, then the two portions are joined together at a seal.

Method of manufacturing a piston aerosol dispenser

The invention relates to a dispensing apparatus for containing a pressurized composition. The dispensing apparatus comprises a reservoir for containing the composition, a flow conduit in fluid communication with the reservoir having a distal end forming a flow conduit orifice; and a displaceable actuator head comprising a side wall having an interior surface and a dispensing orifice formed through the side wall. An intermediate member having an aperture extending there through is interposed between the interior surface of the displaceable actuator head and the distal end of the flow conduit. The intermediate member is affixed to either the interior surface of the actuator head aligning the aperture with the dispensing orifice or to the distal end of the flow conduit aligning the aperture with the flow conduit orifice. The intermediate member seals the dispensing orifice when the displaceable actuator head is biased to an at-rest position.

Actuator for a dispensing apparatus

A dispensing apparatus for containing a pressurized composition, said dispensing apparatus comprising: a reservoir for containing a composition; an actuator head comprising a side wall having an interior surface, said actuator head forming a dispensing orifice through said side wall; a displaceable flow conduit comprising a proximal end in fluid communication with said reservoir and a distal end forming a flow conduit orifice, said distal end being movably engaged with said interior surface of said actuator head; and an intermediate member interposed between said interior surface and said distal end and forming an aperture; and wherein said displaceable flow conduit is biased to an at-rest position and can be movably actuated to at least partially engage said intermediate member in a dispense position, thereby at least partially aligning said dispensing orifice with said flow conduit orifice.

A package comprising an externally visible face. The externally visible face comprises indicia, the indicia having disposed thereon a relatively glossy or shiny coating. The externally visible face is embossed in a portion corresponding to the indicia. The externally visible face comprises an additional coating surrounding the indicia, the additional coating being relatively non-glossy. The indicia is non-alphanumeric.

Package for consumer product

A package comprising an externally visible face. The externally visible face comprises embossed indicia, said indicia being in the shape of a droplet and having disposed thereon a relatively glossy or shiny coating. The externally visible face comprises an additional coating surrounding the indicia, the additional coating being relatively non-glossy. Or, the externally visible face comprises embossed indicia, the indicia having disposed thereon a relatively non-glossy coating. The externally visible face comprises an additional coating surrounding the indicia, the additional coating being relatively glossy or shiny.

Methods for making packaged consumer products are described. The methods generally include the steps of providing an opaque printed substrate, providing a plurality of individually wrapped disposable absorbent articles, and forming a package for containing the wrapped articles with the opaque printed substrate. The opaque printed substrate has a window section that contains ink that causes the over-wrapping material of the articles to appear to have a different color when viewed from outside of the package.

Method of making opaque printed substrate

A method of treating the soil and turf of a golf course putting green that includes installing a gravel bed beneath the green and pumping air into the bed at a pressure such that the pressurized air is first distributed uniformly throughout the bed and then forced upwardly through the soil and turf of the green to treat the soil and turf.
