Dispenser and method of use thereof

A method of producing a multi-layer article that includes a non-active state and an active state, the method comprising the steps of:

• forming an outer layer having a first side and a second side;
• forming an inner layer, the inner layer including a volatile material therein in both the active state and the non-active state;
• attaching the inner layer to the outer layer such that the outer layer and inner layer are attached in both an active state and a non-active state;
• forming an upper layer including a first side and a second side, the first side of the upper layer being positioned on an upper surface of at least a portion of the inner layer and the volatile material therein;
• folding the outer layer, inner layer and upper layer such that at least a first portion of the second side of the upper layer is disposed on top of a second portion of the second side of the upper layer;
• and
• hermetically sealing the first portion of the upper layer to the second portion of the upper layer.

A method of producing a multi-layer article that includes a non-active state and an active state, the method comprising the steps of:

• extruding an outer layer formed from a high crystalline polymer structure having a first side and a second side;
• extruding an inner layer including a material selected from the group consisting of an ethylene-vinyl acetate, a polyethylene, a polypropylene, an ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, a polyester, a nylon or polybutene, butylene copolymer, and/or combinations of these materials, the inner layer including a volatile material;
• bonding the inner layer to the outer layer such that the outer layer and inner layer are bonded in both an active state and a non-active state;
• extruding an upper layer including a first side and a second side and including a material selected from the group consisting of an ethylene-vinyl acetate, a polyethylene, a polypropylene, an ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer, a polyester, a nylon or polybutene, butylene copolymer, and/or combinations of these materials, the first side of the upper layer being disposed on top of at least a portion of the inner layer and the volatile material therein;
• folding the outer layer, inner layer and upper layer such that at least a first portion of the second side of the upper layer is disposed on top of a second portion of the second side of the upper layer;
• and
• applying heat to hermetically seal the first portion of the upper layer to the second portion of the upper layer.
