A rigid, water-soluble container is made of an injection molded poly(vinyl alcohol) and/or a cellulose ether, which container encases a fabric care, surface care or dishwashing composition; and a capsule container comprising at least two components made of one or more material(s) that can be molded and which are water soluble or water dispersible or in which a substantial part of the surface of these components is water soluble or water dispersible so as to leave perforations throughout the wall when the capsular container is placed in contact with an aqueous environment. The container has one to six compartments, preferably one, two or three, the content of the various compartments being accessible to the aqueous environment when the capsular container is exposed to such an aqueous environment. The accessibility time of the various compartments is the same or different from one compartment to another compartment, with the proviso that the content of the container is not a fabric care, surface care or dishwashing composition. |

An identification strip assembly especially adapted for use with tubular insert-receiving identification bands, such assembly taking the form of a base strip and an overlying cover strip. The base strip includes handle, insert, and tip sections delineated by transverse lines of perforation. The cover strip is secured only to the handle and tip sections of the base strip, is transversely perforated along a line disposed above the boundary between the handle and insert sections of the base strip, and is provided with means for producing an image on the insert section when such section, and the portion of the cover strip above it, are subjected to compressive force. The perforation lines are formed to tear or break preferentially so that when a user grips the assembly to snap the tip and handle sections apart, two of the perforation lines will break simultaneously to disconnect the insert section from its cover and from the tip section while leaving the insert section still attached to the covered handle section. Following insertion of the insert section into a tubular identification band, the user may then snap the handle and insert sections apart to break the remaining perforation line. |
