The present invention relates to an auto injector (1) comprising a prefilled liquid medicament container, a hollow auto injector body (2) housing the medicament container. The auto injector body (2) has an elongated part, a first end side (21) and a second end side (22) and at least one through hole (3) arranged between the end sides (21, 22). The through holes (3) allow for flow of gas through the auto injector body (2) when the auto injector body (2) houses the medicament container. The invention further relates to a method comprising inserting the auto injector (1) into the package via an opening in a non-inert environment, and, in a non-inert environment and under atmospheric pressure: replacing the air in the package with inert atmosphere by one or several cycles of removing air and inserting inert gas through the opening, wherein the air and inert gas in part flows through the at least one through hole (3) of the auto injector (1). The method further comprises sealing the opening under vacuum.

The method for packaging articles provides to form a tubular wrapping of thermosealable sheet material inside which the articles to be packaged are prearranged, regularly distanced, and to feed said tubular wrapping to a cut station at which grip means, suitable to grasp in succession said articles, operate. The transverse cut of the tubular wrapping is performed in suitable step relationship in the section upstream the article grasped by said grip means and the prepackaged article is transferred to a closure rotatable head for closing the package, rotatable at a plurality of operative stations. In a first operative station the bellows folding of the open ends of the portion of tubular wrapping containing the article is performed. Successively, the sealing of said bellows folded ends of the wrapping is performed to obtain the airtight closure of the package.

A system for reducing oxygen in a package of produce product using a lance manifold. The lance manifold has a first end adapted to receive an input gas flow and a second end adapted for placement in a partially-enclosed cavity containing the produce product. The second end of the lance manifold includes a plurality of exit ports adapted to produce an output gas flow and a sampling port for taking an air sample from the partially-enclosed cavity. The system also includes an oxygen analyzer for detecting oxygen content of gas inside the partially-enclosed cavity using the sampling port. The system is configured to produce an output gas flow with the following properties: a substantially oxygen-free composition; a flow rate of at least 100 standard cubic feet per hour (SCFH); and a flow direction substantially 90 degrees to a cavity opening of the partially-enclosed cavity.
