Claims
- 1. A flexible container comprising:a base portion including a bottom, side walls, and an interior, the side walls being defined by at least two sheets of flexible material sealed along two edges and defining two side seams located on opposite sides of the base, the base including two triangular portions each triangular portion extending from the bottom to a side seam; an upper panel portion, that is designed to be received within the interior of the base portion and includes side panels that define a closure member wherein the upper panel portion extends for at least one inch below an upper end of the base portion; a pair of handles; and the pair of handles and upper panel are each thermally sealed to the interior of the base portion.
- 2. The flexible container of claim 1 wherein the closure member includes a hook and loop closure.
- 3. The flexible container of claim 1 wherein the container has a substantially cube-like shape when it is closed.
- 4. A flexible container comprising;a base portion including a bottom, side walls, and an interior, the side walls being defined by at least two sheets of flexible material sealed along two edges and defining two side seams located on opposite sides of the base; an upper panel portion, that is designed to be received within the interior of the base portion and sealed thereto, the upper panel includes side panels that define a resealable closure member, the upper panel defining a substantially flat surface when the container is in a closed position; and a pair of handles wherein the pair of handles are upper handles and the base portion includes a pair of lower handles, each lower handle extending from respective corners of the bottom to a lower portion of a respective side.
- 5. The flexible container of claim 4 wherein the base includes two triangular portions extending from the bottom to a side seam.
- 6. The flexible container of claim 4 wherein the pair of handles and upper panel are each thermally sealed to the interior of the base portion.
- 7. The flexible container of claim 4 wherein the closure member includes a hook and loop closure.
- 8. The flexible container of claim 4 wherein the up per panel portion extends partially below an upper end of the base portion.
