Various enhancements of tabbed seals are provided herein with enhanced grasping functionality. Such enhancements include an oversized tab structure for increasing the overall surface area of the tab. In some forms, the tab has been configured such that the overall gripping tab is larger, but a portion thereof is temporarily adhered to the lower laminate, such as during seal and/or cap installation. Instead, the gripping tab includes a small free portion and then a second, temporarily bonded portion that can either release or rupture, permitting the overall grippable portion of the tab to be large.
Various systems are provided herein for sealing and dispensing the contents of containers. The systems can include openings that may be movable relative to one another between sealed positions and dispensing positions.

Various forms of tabbed sealing members are described along with the laminates from which the sealing members are formed. In some forms, the tabbed sealing members may generally be formed from materials that may be processed using a single recycling stream. In one form, the tabbed seals do not include any metal foils, such as would traditionally be included in induction heated seals. Instead, the seals may be applied in other manners, such as using ultrasonic sealing, conduction heating, high frequency sealing/welding, pressure sensitive adhesives, and the like.
Various forms of tabbed sealing members are described along with the laminates from which the sealing members are formed. In some forms, the tabbed sealing members may be considered inverted tabbed sealing members for induction sealing as the induction heating layer is provided in the upper laminate instead of the lower laminate. In this regard, the induction heating layer is positioned further from the heat seal, contrary to conventional tabbed sealing members.

Also a polypropylene film layer (504) lies over and covers and is adhesively bonded to both the portion of the polyethylene or polypropylene foam or film layer not covered by the first PET tab defining layer and also to the first PET tab defining layer itself, the bonds being established by an adhesive. resin (51S) and catalyst chosen to provide a high bonding strength sufficient to hold against a manually generated force. A second PET layer (502) lies, over and covers and adhesively bonds to the polypropylene film layer. The first PET tab defining layer and the portions of the propylene film and second PET layers immediately above and adhesively bonded to the first PET tab defining layer serve as a tab to facilitate removal of the sealing member from a container to which it has been adhered.
A holographic sealing member for a container is designed for attachment to the rim of an opening in the container. The holographic sealing member comprises a holographic layer having an upper plastic layer on its upper side and a lower embossed image layer on its lower side. A sealant or adhesive layer is attached to at least those portions of the lower side of the holographic layer that are intended to come into direct contact with the container's rim when the sealing member is placed upon and is sealed to a container. A metal foil layer lies over and covers and is adhesively bonded to the upper side of the holographic layer and may be inductively heated to actuate the heat actuated sealant. A tab covers and is adhesively bonded to the metal foil layer and may be pulled to remove the sealing member from a container. After this sealing member is attached to a container, and when the tab is pulled to remove the sealing member from the container, almost the entire sealing member pulls away from the container, but those portions of the holographic layer's lower embossed image layer that are attached directly to the rim of the container by the sealant or adhesive layer remain attached to the rim of the container to form a hologram that runs around the container's rim.

The present invention provides a method for producing a primary laminate including a tabstock in which a seal laminate (1 ) including a foil layer (5) and a top foam layer (7), a tabstock (8) and a plastic film stock (10) are fed to a laminating station (6). At the lamination station, a curtain of polymeric adhesive (9) is extruded between the plastics film stock and the top face of the primary substrate (1a), which is partly comprised of the top face of the tabstock and partly comprised of the top foam layer of the seal laminate. Use of primary laminates (1b) obtained by such a process to form seals for sealing a container, for food or drink stored at low temperatures, is also described.
A two-piece induction seal (100), for use in creating clean, safe, and secure inner seals on containers, having a monolayer plastic (124) formed from synthetic fibers with stable pore dimensions for fluid permeability while retaining dimensional stability for compression. An inductive innerseal membrane (132) is provided having a first side and a second side thereof, with an adhesive layer (130) at the first side of the membrane. The second side of the membrane is detachably bound to the synthetic material with a wax layer (126). The synthetic material is further suitable for absorbing substantially all of said wax layer when said wax layer is in liquid form.
