A panel that can be assembled into a container includes a unitary outer wall formed of recyclable plant-fiber pulp and pre-cut to be folded into a box, and one or more pads laminated to the outer wall and covering portions of the outer wall that when folded into the box provide sidewalls and floor of the box such that the pads cover interior surfaces of the sidewalls of the box. Each pad includes a thermally insulative layer of starch and/or cellulose and/or plant fiber pulp.

Described herein are oxygen scavengers, oxygen scavenging polymeric compositions, and oxygen scavenging articles. The polymeric compositions comprising the oxygen scavengers may have utility in packaging, sealing, wrapping, and storing oxygen-sensitive substances, e.g., to preserve freshness of foods, beverages, and the like.

In some examples, a package includes a package body enclosing a medical supply. The package body defines a window. The package includes a breathable membrane adjacent the package body and extending across the window. The package includes a moisture oxygen scavenger adjacent the package body and extending across the breathable membrane. The package includes an adhesive layer configured to hold the moisture oxygen scavenger adjacent the breathable membrane. In some examples, a technique includes sterilizing a package precursor including the package body and the breathable membrane, and after the sterilizing, adhering the moisture oxygen scavenger to the package body to form the package.

An oxygen absorptive film 10a of the present invention is an oxygen absorptive film provided with an oxygen absorption layer 2 and a skin layer 4 laminated on at least one surface of the oxygen absorption layer, wherein the oxygen absorption layer contains polyolefin and cerium oxide having oxygen deficiency, and wherein the skin layer contains an acyclic olefin-based polymer and a cyclic olefin-based polymer.

The method for producing blister packs for medicinal products comprises the steps of forming blister pockets in a bottom film, wherein each blister pocket has an at least two-level shape with a first recess and a second, lower recess, filling the second recesses of the blister pockets with the medicinal products, placing a strip of active material in the first recess of each blister pocket above the medicinal product, wherein the strip of active material rests on at least one support surface of the first recess next to the second recess, sealing a lidding film to webs of the bottom film arranged around the blister pockets and simultaneously to the strips of active material, thus forming a sealed blister web, and stamping out individual blister packs from the blister web.

A blister pack having a backing having a first side and an opposing second side. Each of the first and second side is flat or planar. The blister pack can also include a cover having a first side and an opposing second side. At least a portion of the second side of the cover is adhered to the first side of the backing to form a sealed package for containing product. The cover can include at least one blister. Each blister can have a dome portion and a base portion. The base portion can surround the dome portion. The base portion can extend outwardly beyond the first side of the cover. The blister pack can also include an active member positioned within the base portion of each blister.

The insert includes a base, the base including at least one depression that defines a cavity, the at least one depression including a floor with walls, the walls including a first pair of opposing walls and a second pair of opposing walls, the first pair of opposing walls each defining an undercut, the undercut including a lower inclined segment and an upper inclined segment that join at an apex, the apex of the undercut for each of the first pair of opposing walls facing each other, and a lid connected to an upper brim of the base, the lid covering the cavity.

A multilayer moisture barrier film includes a first outer layer, a second outer layer, and at least one desiccant-containing inner layer between the first and second outer layers. The inner layer can have cavities with which the desiccant particles are in communication.

A blister pack including a backing and an active layer coextensively attached to the backing. A cover is attached to the layer. The cover forms one or more spaced-apart blisters. Each blister and the layer combine to form a cavity configured to enclose at least one product. The active layer within each blister is embossed to form one or more points of weakness configured to facilitate rupture of the backing and active layer when dispensing a product from the blister.

A one-piece closure includes first and second closure portions. The first closure portion includes a top wall portion and an annular skirt portion. The skirt portion includes an internal thread formation and a first frangible connection that partially detachably connects sections of the skirt portion. The second closure portion includes a tamper-evident band that is partially detachably connected to the skirt portion by a second frangible connection. When the first and second frangible connections are broken, a tethered bridge is exposed. The tethered bridge is attached to a portion of the first and second closure portions and extends from about 5 to about 60 degrees around the circumference of the closure. The frangible connections extend from about 300 to about 355 degrees around the circumference of the closure.
