An extensible slit sheet paper product is produced having an expandable slit pattern that forms open cells upon expansion of the paper product. The paper product is an extensible paper having an extensibility in the range from 1-9% in the machine direction and 1-5% in the cross direction. The expansion produces an array of hexagonal cells. The expanded extensible paper can be used to wrap an object for shipping by wrapping and cushioning the object in the expanded slit sheet material. The extensible, expandable slit sheet paper can be wrapped around itself to produce a void fill product.

The invention relates to deformable sleeve with resilient core structure, including: the top and bottom of the sleeve; a resilient core device with one or more solid parts, which has a surface structure of a gap, and/or cavities and limits the distance between the first and second ends of the sleeve due to induced movement. Width of the sleeve is partially limited when it is in undeformed position, and its narrowest width size is partially limited when the sleeve is in deformed position; the outer wall of the resilient core device is partially connected, or secured to the sleeve at one or more ends of the deformable sleeve. The deformable sleeve and resilient core device can be used in combination with various products to improve grip, function or surface appearance. Deformation of the sleeve is limited to a specific structure through the resilient core to provide users improved experience.

The invention provides a heat-shrinkable polyester-based film which has a high heat shrinkage ratio in the main shrinkage direction, as well as a high film puncture strength, bag breakage resistance upon bottle dropping, and excellent stiffness because of the high density of the film. The heat-shrinkable polyester-based film contains 60-95 mol % ethylene terephthalate units in 100 mol % of all ester units, 5-40 mol % diethylene glycol in 100 mol % of the polyhydric alcohol component, and 0-5 mol % constituent units derived from a monomer component that can be an amorphous component in all polyester resin components, in which the hot water heat shrinkage ratio, the puncture strength of the film, the density of the film, and the refractive index in the longitudinal direction of the film are within predetermined ranges when the film is immersed in hot water at 90° C. for 10 seconds.
