Abstract

A system includes a plurality of cover members (52) and an arrangement (104) for positioning the plurality of cover members on, or adjacent, openings of a plurality of containers (12). The system further includes an arrangement (106) for exerting a force substantially simultaneously on the plurality of cover members such that each of the cover members contacts a portion of its respective container adjacent the opening, the cover member becoming attached to the container and thereby acting as a cover for the container.
