A moisture resistant poultry box having a composite structure with a fluted paper medium, a top backing board assembly secured to one side of the fluted medium and a bottom backing board assembly secured to the other side of the fluted medium. The backing board assemblies and the fluted medium are impregnated with a hydrogenated triglyceride, and each backing board assembly has PET film glued thereto covering an outside surface to provide moisture resistant recyclable poultry box so that it has a Cobb value ranging between about 0 to about 1.

Discloses is a packaging paper for food having a grammage between 20 g/m.sup.2 and 40 g/m.sup.2, and having a filler content of less than 20 wt. % relative to the weight of the uncoated paper. On at least one side the packaging paper has a coating that contains a vegetable oil encapsulated in a polymer, and also talc and a binder. Both sides of the finished packaging paper have a Cobb 60 value of 14 g/m.sup.2 to 22 g/m.sup.2.

A microwave packaging material for forming a construct for holding a food item. The microwave packaging material can comprise a film at least partially secured to a substrate by a pattern of adhesive. A plurality of closed cells can extend between the film and the substrate, each closed cell of the plurality of closed cells can be at least partially defined by the pattern of adhesive, and each of the closed cells can be configured to expand during heating to form respective expanded cells. The microwave packaging material further can comprise a bonded region extending along at least a portion of the microwave packaging material. The film can be secured to the substrate along the bonded region, and the bonded region can be for forming at least one recess among the expanded cells and can be for extending along the food item when the microwave packaging material is heated.

A reusable flexible sheet is disclosed. The flexible sheet includes a central layer that can assume a manipulated shape. The central conformable layer is encased within a first sheet on one side, and a second sheet on the opposite side. The three layers move in unison. The outer first sheet and second sheet are generally impermeable to liquids and solids, and allow the flexible sheet to be cleaned and reused. In some cases, the flexible sheet material can be folded or formed into a storage bag. Various methods of making the reusable flexible sheet are also disclosed.

A method for treating open cut edges of a packaging sleeve, blank or web material of a packaging material rolled up into a roll, in particular a composite cardboard/plastics material, by applying or introducing a disinfectant-containing treatment agent to or into the outer region of the cut edges. To provide a particularly resource-efficient composite packaging and a production method required for this purpose, it is proposed that at least some of the treatment agent is not applied directly to the cut edges, but that a load carrier is loaded, which load carrier absorbs the treatment agent so that an actively sterilising atmosphere which is created then acts on the open cut edges of the packaging sleeve, blank or web material and performs the desired sterilisation. The invention also relates to a packaging material, to a combipack produced therefrom and to a container for receiving the packaging material.
