PLASTIC FILMS
Use of olefin-based plastic films for obtaining labels in rolls for high speed roll-fed applications from about 8,000 to about 75,000 containers/hour, the films having a thickness comprised between 10 and 22 μm, flexural rigidity (N.Math.mm) in the range 0.5×10.sup.−2-4.5×10.sup.−2 save for a constant 1/[12×(1−ν.sup.2)] wherein ν is the Poisson modulus, the elongation at break in MD determined according to ASTM D 882 lower than 130%, dimensional stability measured according to the OPMA TC 4 standard at 130° C. for 5 minutes in the air in MD comprised between 0 and −10% and in TD between −4 and +4%.
Method for forming a folded bag and bag formed thereby
A folded bag comprising a front side, a rear side, and left and right sides connecting the front and rear sides, each side having a top edge and a bottom edge; a plurality of left simple gussets and a plurality of right simple gussets formed in each of the left and right bag sides, respectively, wherein each simple gusset includes first and second outwardly-extending wings formed by respective first and second outwardly-extending folds and separated by an inwardly-extending fold; and a bottom edge seal subsuming all of the bottom edges such that the simple gussets are restrained from unfolding at the bottom edge seal and are unrestrained from unfolding along the top edges of the front, rear, and left and right sides. One or more of the simple gussets may be converted to a compound gusset by additional longitudinal folding, thus reducing further the folded width of the bag.

Machine and method for producing filled containers
A device for producing filled containers has a transport device which is configured for transporting containers which are filled with a liquid and are closed by a closure. Furthermore, the apparatus has a penetration device which is configured for producing an opening in at least one region of the closure and/or of the container, and an application device, which applies a flowable and in particular gaseous medium to the interior of the container through this opening (or feeds the gaseous medium to this interior). Furthermore, the apparatus has a closing device which closes the opening again.
