Abstract (en)

A product (200) comprising at least two discrete items (201 and 202) is packaged using (103 and 104) both a first and a second gusset-forming methodology, wherein the first gusset-forming methodology differs from the second gusset-forming methodology. By one approach, the first gusset-forming methodology comprises a mechanically-based gusset-forming methodology while the second gusset-forming methodology comprises a non-mechanically-based gusset-forming methodology (such as, but not limited to, a vacuum-based gusset-forming methodology). Pursuant to one approach, gussets (501) at the ends of the package are formed using the first gusset-forming methodology while gussets (204) in the middle portion of the package are formed using the second gusset-forming methodology.
