US 12,162,647 B2 · Removable container liner

Abstract

A removable liner disposed within the interior volume of a container, which liner has an interior volume for containing product such as food condiments or sauces, cleaning products, and any other product of a flowable nature and viscosity that allows for storage and extraction for later use by a user. When manipulation of the container, such as by squeezing the container or inverting the container such that its mouth portion or feature is oriented in a downward direction, or by gravity, or by both manipulating the container and by gravity, is no longer effective to remove product, the liner may be separated from the container, and remaining product may be removed from the liner through an openable closure in the liner. In some cases, substantially all of the remaining product may be removed from the container, reducing waste introduced into the environment, thus resulting in positive environmental impact.
