<p>The present invention provides a flexible storage bag (10) comprising at least one sheet of flexible sheet material assembled to form a semi-enclosed container having an opening defined by a hinged peripheral flange (31). The hinged flange includes a closure means for sealing the opening to convert the semi-enclosed container to a closed container. When the bottom is placed on a horizontal surface the container is self-supporting and maintains the opening in an open condition. The present invention also provides a collapsible, stackable, self-restorable container (10A) comprising a unitary continuous tubular side wall having a first open end and a second open end defining an axial direction extending through the first and second open ends. The tubular sidewall is collapsible in response to an externally-applied force exerted in its axial direction and is self-restorable when the force is removed. A lid (40A) attached to the tubular side wall for selectively converting the semi-enclosed container to a closed container completes the storage container, and a closure means is provided for sealing the lid to the tubular sidewall.</p> |
