A clamshell packaging for airtight packaging of foodstuff includes a tray folded out of a single sheet. The tray has at least two adjacent pool parts, each pool part having a bottom wall and upstanding walls arranged around the circumferential edge of the bottom wall. The adjacent pool parts are hingedly connected to each other along an upper edge of a respective upstanding wall, so the adjacent pool parts can be hinged on top of each other to form a closed box. A circumferential, horizontal flange is arranged to the tray to at least some upper edges of the upstanding walls. A plastic barrier foil is arranged in the pool parts and extends onto and substantially covers the flange. The flange includes a seal zone extending along the length of the flange. The seal zone is line symmetrical along the hinge line at the upper edge of the connected walls.

A coating process of a segmented paper pulp bottle blank includes: S1, placing a film raw material into a bottle blank to be coated; S2, folding an upper edge of the film raw material to fix the upper edge onto a mouth of the bottom blank; S3, placing the bottle blank fixed with the film raw material into a coating mold; S4, placing a hot-air blowing pipe into the bottle blank; and S5, sucking air by the coating mold to absorb the bottle blank onto inner cavity walls of the coating mold, blowing in hot air by the hot-air blowing pipe to make the film raw materia1, after being heated and softened, to be expanded and adhered to the inner wall of the bottle blank, and finally opening the coating mold to take out a finished product. Moreover, a production process of a segmented paper pulp bottle is provided.

A deep-drawn paper tray made of paper material, a method and an apparatus for manufacturing the tray, and a closed product package comprising the tray. The tray having a bottom and upwardly expanding side walls around the bottom, the side walls of the tray being shaped to expand through a plurality of circumferential steps dimensioned low enough for obtaining wrinkle-free side walls for the tray. The outermost step is a flat, wrinkle-free rim flange, which enables liquid and gas proof heat-sealing of a lid to form the package. The apparatus may comprise upper and lower moulding tools with concentric movable frames for forming the tray bottom and side wall steps from paper blanks, and moulding tools may be mounted onto a rotating turret carrying a paper blank through working stations arranged along the turret circumference, to shape the tray bottom and the side wall steps at the consecutive stations.

A method for producing a cellulose product from an air-formed cellulose blank structure comprising the steps; providing a cellulose blank structure which is air-formed from cellulose fibres; applying, in a first application step (S.sub.A1), an alkyl ketene dimer (AKD) dispersion to the cellulose blank structure, and applying, in a second application step (S.sub.A2) a latex dispersion to the cellulose blank structure arranging the cellulose blank structure with the applied alkyl ketene dimer (AKD) dispersion and latex dispersion in a forming mould; heating the cellulose blank structure to a forming temperature (T.sub.F) in the range of 100° C. to 300° C., and forming the cellulose product from the cellulose blank structure in the forming mould, by pressing the heated cellulose blank structure with the applied alkyl ketene dimer (AKD) dispersion and latex dispersion with a forming pressure (P.sub.F) of at least 1 MPa, preferably 4-20 MPa.

A lid and substrate part made of pulp material are connected as one piece via hinge part and configured to be openable and closable, wherein the lid part is provided with a swell part and the substrate part is provided with a part for attaching to a package, a surrounding wall standing from the attaching part and a flange part formed between the surrounding wall and the outlet, wherein when the lid is closed the lid part contacts the flange part, when the closed lid state is maintained the swell part covers the surrounding wall in which a pressing force is applied to the flange part by the lid part, when retention of the closed lid state is removed, the pressing force by the lid part to the flange part is removed and a force to open the lid part is applied from the flange part onto the lid part.

A method for manufacturing a cellulose product, comprising the steps: dry forming a cellulose blank in a dry forming unit; arranging the cellulose blank in a forming mould; heating the cellulose blank to a forming temperature in the range of 100° C. to 200° C.; and pressing the cellulose blank in the forming mould with a forming pressure of at least 1 MPa.

The invention concerns a manufacturing process for producing hermetic single-use food containers, including: forming a 3D container body having a peripheral upper rim by stamping a 2D blank in a press, the 2D blank including a rim portion (11) and a wall portion (12); applying a closing lid over the 3D container body and sealing the closing lid with the rim. The manufacturing process is characterized in that it comprises a creasing step before forming the 3D container body, where creases (13) are formed in a peripheral zone of the 2D blank (10) by creasing or embossing the 2D blank with a creasing or embossing plate, the thus pre-creased peripheral zone covering at least a part of the rim portion (11) of the 2D blank.

A method for manufacturing a cellulose product, comprising the steps: dry forming a cellulose blank in a dry forming unit; arranging the cellulose blank in a forming mould; heating the cellulose blank to a forming temperature in the range of 100° C. to 200° C.; and pressing the cellulose blank in the forming mould with a forming pressure of at least 1 MPa.

A method for the three-dimensional shaping of flat material made from in particular, natural fibers, such as for example, paper or cardboard, using a deep-drawing piston and a die, through which or into which the material is drawn. The diameter of the deep-drawing piston plus the material thickness of the deep-drawn material corresponds at least approximately to the diameter of the die.

A paper lid that is mainly made of paper includes a top plate portion extending in a first direction, an inner fitting portion extending in a second direction and being continuous with the top plate portion, a peak portion extending in a third direction and being continuous with the inner fitting portion, an outer fitting portion extending in a fourth direction, facing the inner fitting portion at a distance, and being continuous with the peak portion, and a flange portion extending in a fifth direction, being continuous with the outer fitting portion, and including an end of the paper lid.
