An ovenable cooking apparatus for facilitating the cooking of food components while maintaining the separateness thereof may include a first container for holding a first food component, and a second container for holding a second food component. The separation of the first food component from the second food component maintains the surface area for the first and second food components to facilitate heating of the first and second food components. The first food component may have a liquid based content for producing steam when heated, and one or both of the first container and the second container may define a passage for providing airflow and steam flow for contacting the second container and/or the second foodstuff and heating or steaming the second food component. Additionally, the second container may be steam impermeable for cooking bread and the like.

A film package with a resealable access opening providing improved access to the package contents is provided. The film package may include a tray, frame, or other reinforcing structure containing or holding discrete articles disposed in a row, column, or array, a flexible film forming at least a top of the film package, an access opening disposed at least in the top defined by a cut in the film, and a sealing layer adhesively sealed to the film or a remainder of the film around the access opening. In one embodiment, the access cut forming the access opening into the film has an expanded portion that extends outward from the remainder of the access cut to facilitate easier removal of the discrete articles within the package. To further improve access, the tray may have an opening or window therein to permit the discrete articles to move longitudinally and/or laterally therein.

A food package having a heat-sealed cover composed of a lower plastic film and an upper plastic film which is distinct and separate from the lower plastic film is disclosed. The upper and lower films are collapsible, i.e., they can be creased and crumpled into a ball without effort or folded as a tissue paper. The lower film and upper film are heat-sealed to each other at respective perimeter edges to define a closed, watertight internal housing filled with a modified atmosphere. A tray, configured to house the food product, is inserted in the closed internal housing but is not fixed to the upper or lower film. The food packaging described herein allows a substantial reduction of plastic compared to those currently on the market, while guaranteeing its mechanical rigidity, and the long-term quality of the product. A method for producing the packaging is also disclosed.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a package, a carrier for packaging one or more articles and a blank (10) for forming the carrier. The package comprises a carrier having a base wall (14, 20, 26; 114, 120, 126), opposed side walls (12, 28; 112, 128) and opposed end walls to define an interior. The carrier may take the form of an open topped tray. The package further comprises a plurality of articles disposed in the interior of the carrier. The package comprises a partition structure (16/18, 22/24; 116/118, 122/124) dividing the interior into two or more chambers (C1/C2, C2/C3). The partition structure (16/18, 22/24; 116/118, 122/124) may comprise an opening or portal providing a passageway between two adjacently disposed chambers. The opening may be defined or controlled, at least in part by, a gate panel (116B, 24B; 116B, 124B).

The present invention provides a package wrapping that utilizes a film having a pair of spaced apart perforations defining a perforation zone there between, a carton label having a pair of spaced apart tabs defining a notch that extends across and makes visible a portion of the perforation zone when the label overlays the film, and an adhesive extending across a portion of the perforation zone and one of the spaced apart tabs wherein the carton label is not adhered to the film.

The present invention discloses a reclosable pack (1) of smoking articles, said pack comprising a sealed enclosure having a front wall, a back wall, two side walls (7), a top-end wall (8) and a bottom-end wall (6), said enclosure comprising a flexible packaging laminate around a bundle of smoking articles (2), the laminate comprising a built-in easy-opening access, said laminate comprising a permanently tacky adhesive layer (3) sandwiched between an inner layer structure (9) and an outer layer structure (12) comprising an outer score line (13) formed through the thickness of the outer layer structure (12) and an inner score line (14) formed through the thickness of the inner layer structure (9), both delimiting separable opening portions, in which a region of the outer opening portion between the outer and inner score lines (13, 14) is attached to an underlying surface of the inner layer structure (9) via a permanently tacky adhesive (3), the outer opening portion being peelable from the underlying surface of the inner layer structure (9) to build an opening flap (4), and the outer opening portion being re-attachable to the underlying surface of the inner layer structure (9) via said permanently tacky adhesive (3) for reclosing, in use, the opening access, wherein said opening access is exclusively located at the top-end wall (8) of the sealed enclosure.

The present invention is directed to a TEE Probe container configured for receiving a TEE Probe, the container comprising a first container surface and an opposing second container surface. In some instances, the container further comprises one or more depressions positioned on the first surface configured for receiving the TEE probe. The TEE probe container further comprises a planar lid configured to removably enclose the first container surface of the container.

A trapped tray product packaging having a paperboard or a molded pulp tray trapped between a first panel and a second panel is provided. The first panel has an opening for placement of the tray. The tray includes a lip that is trapped between the first panel and the second panel. The first and second panels can be formed from paperboard.

A cover foil as a push-through foil for a blister pack for packaging moisture-sensitive products has an aluminum foil as the barrier layer against the penetration of water vapor and gases and a sealing layer for sealing against a blister base part. A plastics material layer containing moisture-adsorbing drying agent is arranged on the side of the aluminum foil provided with the sealing layer.

A wrapper for a group of tobacco industry products is disclosed. The wrapper has a barrier material and a tab arranged such that pulling the tab separates a section of the barrier material from the remainder of the barrier material to form an extraction opening. The barrier material has a cut arranged such that when the tab is pulled the barrier material is torn along a path extending from the cut to form said extraction opening in the barrier material.
