A consumer product package includes a package body that has a front wall, a back wall opposite the front wall, a first cavity having a display surface such that the display surface is disposed between the front and back walls to contain a first consumer product, and a closure slot disposed between the front wall and the display surface; and a lid pivotally connected to the package body opposite the front wall. The lid includes an opening tab positioned along an edge of the lid and an opening flap positioned along the edge of the lid. The lid is pivotable between at least an open position and a closed position, wherein when the lid is in the closed position, the opening flap is received within the closure slot, and when disposed within the closure slot, the package has an Average Lift Force from about 0.01 N to about 4.0 N.

Provided is a cover material for packaging contains for retort sterilization which comes to exhibit excellent sealing strength through low-temperature, short-time heat sealing. The cover material for packaging containers for retort sterilization is constituted of a multilayered laminate obtained by superposing a base layer, an interlayer, and a sealing layer in this order, and is characterized in that the base layer is constituted of a laminated film obtained by laminating a polyethylene terephthalate film or polybutylene terephthalate film to an aluminum foil and the aluminum foil of the base layer has been laminated to the interlayer with a polyurethane-based adhesive or a polyester-based adhesive, and that the aluminum foil has a thickness of 7-40 μm, the polyethylene terephthalate film or the polybutylene terephthalate film has a thickness of 6-18 μm, the interlayer has a thickness of 10-100 μm, and the sealing layer has a thickness of 3-20 μm.

The present invention relates to rupturable containers comprising a planar flange and a lidding film secured to the flange, and comprising a self-rupturing continuous inner seal, a first and a second appendicle seal; wherein each of the appendicle seals is spaced apart from the inner seal and positioned between the inner seal and a peripheral edge of the container, and a discharge channel configured to regulate the direction of discharge of the contents of the container upon rupturing of the inner seal.

The present invention relates to a packaging for storing and/or cooking a food product, the packaging comprising a container for holding the food product, and a cover removably fastened to an upper rim of the container characterized in that the cover comprises a weakening line forming a spiral. Further aspects of the invention are the cover as well as the packaged food product.

The device for partially embossing deep-drawn or planar seal blanks that are punched out from a foil strip comprises an embossing die and an adjacent punch. The embossing die in turn comprises a female mould and a male mould, the male mould comprising three-dimensional elements that are arranged in an outer region and in a central region and the male mould and the female mould, in their spatial position, being mounted so as to be rotatable about an axis A that is substantially perpendicular to the foil strip.

Reclosable package of cigarettes, comprising: a group of cigarettes; a soft envelope having a parallelepiped shape and comprising a front surface, a rear surface, a top surface, a bottom surface and two side surfaces, the envelope encloses the group of cigarettes and is provided with a cigarette extraction opening; a stiffening element wrapping the envelope along at least two opposite surfaces of the envelope and at the extraction opening; a reclosable opening system consisting in an adhesive closing panel superimposed in a removable manner on an adhesive frame panel, the opening system covers the extraction opening; wherein the closing panel is movable between an opening position and a closing position of the extraction opening, and wherein the opening system is fastened to the stiffening element by firmly superimposing the frame panel on at least two opposite walls of the stiffening element and at the extraction opening.

A tray composite comprises a polymeric based liner including an exterior surface layer, an interior surface layer, and a formed base removably affixed to the interior surface layer of the polymeric based liner. A formed base is removably affixed to the interior surface layer of the polymeric based liner. The polymeric based liner and the formed base are manually separable after they have been removably affixed together by a first portion of the interior surface layer remaining affixed to the formed base and a second portion of the interior surface layer separating from the first portion of the interior surface layer.

The present invention relates to improved packages which include a rigid or semi-rigid tray having a single thermoplastic overwrap comprising a polymeric laminate surrounding the tray and having a front panel and an opposing back panel. The inventive packages also include a continuous seal circumscribing a recessed cavity of the tray which comprises a heat seal formed by heat sealing a portion of the front panel to the peripheral flange of the tray. Advantageously, when the tray is removed from the overwrap, a portion of the first film separates from the laminate and remains peelably sealed to the flange of the tray and thus, may serve as a lidding film for the container. Since the recessed cavity is still covered, the container may then be placed directly in a microwave or conventional oven to thaw and/or cook the food container within the package without first removing the lidding film.

This invention relates to an antimicrobial cover comprising or consisting of an antimicrobial agent-generating article for use with a container for transporting or storage of fruit and a container comprising the antimicrobial of the invention. The invention further relates to a method of preventing or inhibiting the growth of microorganisms, particularly fungal organisms, in packaged fruit comprising the use of the antimicrobial of the invention.
