DEFINITION

Classification: 229/87.01

WRAPPER:

(under the class definition) Subject matter comprising a single-use covering made of paper or paper-substitute material and having a structural element (e.g., fastener, seal, etc.) or a specified shape adapting it for a wrapping a mercantile unit.

(1) Note. A "single-use" covering is one which is discarded after use. (By contrast, Class 150, Purses, Wallets, and Protective Covers, provides for a flexible, protective article cover which is reusable).

(2) Note. An example of a paper-substitute material is a flexible sheet of cellulosic or resinous material (e.g., plastic film).

(3) Note. A mercantile unit includes means in or by which goods are displayed, protected, packaged, or arranged in a particular manner to facilitate sale, transportation in commerce, use or storage.
