A transparent, peelable polyester film is provided with clarity greater than 80% including a biaxially oriented polyester film as base layer (B) and an offline coated heat-sealable outer layer (A) that is peelable relative to ready-meal APET or RPET trays. The heat-sealable and peelable outer layer (A) includes from 85 to 99 wt % polyester and from 1 to 15 wt % other substances, the polyester including of from 25 to 95 mol % of units derived from at least one aromatic dicarboxylic acid and from 5 to 75 mol % of units derived from at least one aliphatic dicarboxylic acid. The polyester incorporates at least 10 mol % of units derived from diols having more than 2 carbon atoms. The mass of the dry outer layer (A) is from 1 to 5 g/m.sup.2. Production processes for the foregoing film, and use thereof as scalable film for ready-meal trays is also provided.

A packaging system for packaging components includes a plurality of frames arranged on top of one another. A laminar structure is fixed to each of the frames. At least one component is arranged and held between two laminar structures—one laminar structure is fixed to one frame—supported by two frames, which forms a holding component of the packaging system.

The present disclosure, in one embodiment, relates to an injection molded container for holding a product, wherein the container is configured to house a humidity control product that may regulate the relative humidity of the inner body of the container such that the product housed therein may be kept at an optimal humidity.

A plastic, hot-fillable container is provided. The container comprises a blow molded body including a neck and a base having a center portion and a plurality of spaced apart radial segments. At least a portion of each segment is tapered from an outer side to an inner side thereof. Container systems and methods of manufacturing containers are disclosed.

A system for advancement of a consumable in the form of a continuous sheet in a machine for manufacturing containers having a first pulling group of the sheet actuated by a first motor at the end of the manufacturing zone, a second pulling group of the sheet actuated by a second motor at the end of the manufacturing zone, a support and deviation element of the sheet after the second pulling group equipped with a load cell for estimating the tension, and a processor programmed to direct the individual actuation of the first and second motors, such that the pulling groups promote the advancement of longitudinal portions of sheet sufficiently different to correct deviations in the tension of the sheet with respect to a pre-established target tension. A method for intermittent advancement of the sheet having a correction phase of the tension wherein only the second motor is actuated.

A system and method are provided for implementing a process by which printed rolls of substrate material web have additional material layers interleaved between the rolled material web layers to substantially eliminate back transfer or roll offset of printed images on the back sides of the rolled material substrates. In a process for pre-printing thermoforming grade plastic materials to produce rolls of substrate material for use in a thermoforming process, ink compositions, particularly adapted for the thermoforming process, are deposited on substantially continuous webs of substrate material. The webs of substrate material are then re-rolled with separate layers of low surface energy substrate material interleaved between the layers of the printed substrate material in order to substantially eliminate imaging defects produced by back transfer of printed images on to the backs of layers of the printed substrate material stored in rolls.

This invention provides a food container which can be manufactured cheaply by using inexpensive general PET resin or further inexpensive PET resin for fiber or recovered PET flakes, and nevertheless, which has a high heat resistance up to 250° C., and the container is obtained by adding a chain extender and a compatibilizer and talc to PET resin, charging the mixture into an extruder 30 having two or more vent holes, degassing under a condition where the PET resin is melted with heating by sucking at a high vacuum of −99.99 kPa or lower from the vent holes 33, 34, thereafter, forming a sheet by extrusion molding, pressure-forming with vacuum the sheet by a thermoforming machine, forming the container by keeping in a mold at 100-220° C. The container has a total of the content of crystal portion represented by the following formula and the content of talc being 25% by weight or more.

A preform is disclosed for producing a plastic container. The production of the preform as well as a plastic container that is produced from the preform and its production are also disclosed.

A method is disclosed for producing thin-walled small plastic parts having an average wall thickness of less than about 1.5 mm, wherein the small plastic parts are produced in a plastic injection-molding method from polyethylene furanoate (PEF) having a viscosity of, for example, 0.3 dl/g to 0.7 dl/g, for example, preferably less than e.g., 0.6 dl/g, measured according to a measurement method as per ASTM D4603, which polyethylene furanoate has an exemplary water content of less than 100 ppm in the plastic injection process.

A plastic internally hollow body has a cavity for containing liquids, solids or gases, and includes a main body shaped and having an inner surface at least partially defining the cavity. The inner surface terminates in a shaped edge that delimits a coupling aperture to the cavity. The internally hollow body includes a closure body, having an outer sealing surface suitable at least partially engaging the inner surface of the main body. The closure body at least partially closes the cavity in correspondence of the coupling aperture. The main body is joined to the closure body at least partially along the shaped edge by a joining element over-moulded to the main body and the closure body and covering the over-moulding seat resulting between the main body and the closure body. A method for making the internally hollow body over-moulds the joining element by injection moulding with an over-moulding mould.
