Abstract (en)
Nowadays it is commonplace to line rubbish bins with plastics bags before depositing rubbish in them. This not only keeps the bin clean but also allows the rubbish deposited in the bag to be removed and disposed of easily when the bin is full. Such a plastics bag (1) includes at or towards its open end a strip of elastic (4) connected to the bag (1) at two spaced apart portions (5). The elastic strip (4) extends between the spaced apart portions (5) extending over an extent of half the periphery or less of the bag (1) and is substantially relaxed when the open end (2) of the bag (4) is opened to its maximum extent. To use such a bag it is placed in a bin (6) and the open neck of the bag folded over the open end of the bin (6). The strip of elastic (4) is then pulled over and across the open end of the bin (6) to engage the folded over neck portion (7) on the opposite side of the bag (1). <IMAGE> <IMAGE>
