Multi Compartment Trash and Recycling Bag and Method of Manufacturing the Same

摘要

A multi-compartment plastic bag suitable for collecting and retaining a quantity of refuse and a quantity of recyclable items. The multi-part bag provides longitudinal compartments for the receipt of refuse or recycling. The longitudinal compartments are each sealed on three sides with a fourth (top) edge open for the insertion of refuse/recycling. The multi-compartment bag is initially constructed as a single unit and may be separated into the multiple components along one or more perforated mid-seams. Grab handles may be formed near the upper edge through perforated cutouts. The multi-compartment bag is designed to be used in standard single compartment trash receptacles. The construction of the bag lends itself to manufacture in a continuous multilayer sheet with longitudinal sealed seams along each edge of the multilayered sheet and at least one partial longitudinal sealed seam along an interior line or mid-seam of the multi-layered sheet. The mid-seam may be perforated for the later separation of the multiple bag components. Grab handle perforations (in the nature of a partial or complete oval or circle) may be made at the appropriate intervals.
