Disclosed is a packaging sheet for packaging of cheese, in particular white moulded soft cheese. The packaging sheet comprises: an inner surface and an outer surface of the packaging sheet, said inner surface being configured for facing the cheese in a packaged use position of the packaging sheet; a paper layer with a first surface and a second surface; a coloured layer provided on a first surface of the paper layer, an outer surface of the coloured layer establishing said outer surface of the packaging sheet; and a polymer layer with a water vapour transmission rate of at least 300 g/m.sup.2/24 hours at 38° C. and 90% atmospheric humidity. The polymer layer being coated on the second surface of the paper layer with a first surface of the polymer layer facing the paper layer and a second surface of the polymer layer establishing said inner surface of the packaging sheet.

The present disclosure is directed to a composition comprising (a) a vinylidene chloride/methyl acrylate interpolymer having greater than 6 wt % methyl acrylate mer units in the interpolymer, (b) greater than 6 wt % of an epoxy plasticizer; and (c) less than 4 wt % of an acrylate polymer. The composition exhibits a crystallization time greater than 25 minutes to crystallization at 35° C. Films made from the present composition show improved processability and find advantageous application as permeable barrier film for food packaging, for specialty food packaging, and for gassy cheese.

The container for a molded food product is provided with a hollow body including a bottom wall and a side wall extending from the bottom wall to a wide end provided with a discharge opening. The bottom wall has an outer edge extending around a longitudinal axis of the container and a venting device manually operable to define one or more vent holes in the bottom wall. The venting device includes a push member provided with an actuation portion and at least one first hinge adjacent to the actuation portion. The push member is longitudinally movable between an initial proximal position, in which the vent holes are closed by corresponding closing members, and a predetermined distal position, in which the vent holes are open.

A food container including a receptacle defining a first storage volume and a second storage volume, a cover configured to be secured to the receptacle, and a gas diversion system located between the first storage volume and the second storage volume when the cover is secured to the receptacle.

A packaging system comprising a trough and a packaging element separate therefrom for closing the trough, the packaging trough having an outer cardboard structure folded or formed from corrugated board with an insert of a single or multiple layer plastic film, the inner side of each side wall of the cardboard structure being connected by material means to the insert only in its upper part of the side wall, the insert forming a substantially identically shaped, but loose contact surface with the lower part of the inner side of each side wall down to the base of the packaging trough and the trough having at least one gas venting opening.

A food product package is formed by a sheet resulting from a blank with a plurality of sheets, each sheet of the blank having weakened portions, and a tongue secured to a transverse edge of the sheet The sheet is folded according to transverse weakened portions in order to form a tube with a rectangular cross-section and being sealed on itself along a peelable or tearable transverse joint, the tongue projecting longitudinally from the transverse joint, the sheet being sealed longitudinally along a longitudinal base joint, and the package being closed by longitudinally sealing the sheet on itself along a longitudinal top joint spaced apart from the longitudinal base joint, with the transverse joint extending from one longitudinal joint to the other.
