Abstract

See full text

Container that holds a fluid is disposed in a conformable sleeve that has a tubular body and an opening. The tubular body comprises a nonwoven web that contains microfibers, and the opening is sized to permit the container to enter the tubular body's interior. The conformable sleeve is wrapped at least one full turn about the container to surround its side. First and second portions of the sleeve project axially from the container's ends when the sleeve is wrapped about the container. The conformable sleeve protects the container from breaking, and it can sorb the fluid in the container should the container fail.
