Abstract
The invention is directed to a package having a continuing label. The continuing label has at least one portion that is a continuation of a label on an adjacent package. The package of this invention can stand right side up or upside down and when displayed in a group creates a billboard or poster-like appearance.
Description
- The present invention is directed to a package comprising a continuing label. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a package comprising a continuing label that has at least one portion that is a continuation of a label on an adjacent, and preferably, complementary package. The package of this invention preferably can stand right side up and upside down, is preferably squeezable and creates a billboard or poster-like appearance when displayed in a group.
- Packages, like bottles, and especially translucent bottles, are used to present to the consumer a variety of household products, especially food products. Manufacturers of such bottles, for example, often attempt to improve gripping means of the bottles to ensure that the bottles do not fall out of the consumers' hands during use. Also, manufacturers of bottles often concentrate on product evacuation from the bottle so that product is not wasted at the time the bottle is discarded or recycled.
- Other manufacturers focus on marketing techniques for individual packages. For example, individual bottles have been shaped like animals, cartoon characters and drinking glasses so that they may be used and/or displayed after being emptied.
- Labeling is also another means for enhancing the marketing appeal of packages. Unfortunately, however, marketers typically focus on package labels individually, and such labeling has a limited impact on catching consumer attention.
- It is of increasing interest to develop a packaging and labeling system that will be exceptionally attractive to consumers. This invention, therefore, is directed to a package comprising a continuing label that has at least one portion that is a continuation of a label on an adjacent, and preferably, complementary package. The package of this invention is suitable to stand right side up or upside down (and preferably both right side up and upside down), is ergonometric, and creates a billboard or poster-like appearance when displayed in a group.
- Additional Information
- Efforts have been disclosed for making packages. In U.S. Pat. Nos. DES 416,199, DES 507,748, 3,537,498, 5,156,285 and 5,350,078, bottles suitable for gripping are disclosed.
- Other efforts have been disclosed for making packages. In U.S. Application, Publication Nos. 2003/0031851 A1 and 2003/0075521 A1, bottles for consumer products are described.
- Still other efforts have been disclosed for making packages. In U.S. Application Publication No. 2004/0232023 A1, an asymmetric package that creates an illusion of animation is described.
- None of the additional information above describes an ergonometric package comprising a continuing label that has at least one portion that is a continuation of a label on an adjacent package.
- In a first aspect, the present invention is directed to a package that is easy to grip and ergonometric, the package comprising:
-
- (a) a body; and
- (b) a continuing label on the body
wherein when the package is displayed in a group of packages comprising continuing labels, the group creates a billboard or poster-like image.
- In a second aspect, the present invention is directed to a method for marketing products with the package of the first aspect of this invention.
- Squeezable is defined to mean suitable to be squeezed or compressed by a human hand so that consumer product may be removed or evacuated therefrom. Package, as used herein, is defined to mean a container suitable to contain consumer products whereby such a container is not limited to any shape or size and can comprise, for example, metal, glass, plastic or paperboard. Ergonometric, as used herein, is meant to mean easy to grab and hold with the hand. Continuing label, as used herein, is defined to mean a label that has at least one portion that continues from or connects with a label on an adjacent package. Complementary, as used herein, means having a curve or portion that completes or contributes to a group to make a whole, and not simply a square or rectangular shaped object sitting adjacent to another square or rectangular shaped object. Billboard or poster-like means a picture or advertisement that is larger than a label on an individual package. On the body is defined to mean on the inner or outer surface of the package and/or impregnated within the material used to make the package.
