A container for stacked food products, such as potato chips, is provided. The container includes composite laminate that includes one or more layers of cardboard. The container has a non-circular shape. The container has a horizontal cross-section with end portions that have a constant radius along their length and side portions that have a changing radius along their length wherein the end portions and the side portions transition between each other continuously.

A packing material including a strip of corrugated cellulosic material and a method of packing an object in a shipping box using the packing material. The strip of corrugated cellulosic material includes a plurality of macro flutes and is moveable between an expanded state and a compressed state. The strip of corrugated cellulosic material is in the compressed state when a compression force is applied to the strip of corrugated cellulosic material in the longitudinal direction and in the expanded state when the compression force is removed. The length of the strip of corrugated cellulosic material is longer in the expanded state than the compressed state.

This invention relates to packaging applications. It generally relates to polyethylene or ethylene/α-olefin copolymer based co-extruded, multi-layer films or sheets—rigid or flexible—for thermoforming into shaped containers such as packaging containers. Inter alia, the films have improved barrier properties, toughness, and snapability. Particularly, the films of the present invention comprise one or more stacks of polypropylene layers, wherein at least one stack comprises nucleating agents. In one embodiment, the polypropylene layers in the stack are provided such that any two adjacent layers have different microstructures that provide a interface or interphase between the two layers with likely different microstructures and/or crystallinity. The overall polypropylene stack structure assists in disrupting the transport of oxygen, thereby providing a laminate or structure, for example a rigid film or sheet, with enhanced oxygen-barrier properties. The invention also relates a process for preparing shaped articles such as containers from such films, and to such shaped articles—rigid or flexible—both filled and unfilled.
