A multilayered flexible package comprises a polymeric coating (2) that contains a dispersion of antioxidant capsules (3) having a particle size distribution comprised between 0.1 and 10 μm and a core-shell structure comprising a core (4), of an antioxidant with a reduction potential comprised between 0.1 and 0.5 V, and a polymeric shell (5) covering the core (4) at least by 70%.

Described herein is a recyclable packaging having an exposed outermost surface, the recyclable packaging comprising: a wall comprising an inner surface opposite an outer surface, the wall having a multi-layer structure that includes a first layer comprising biaxially oriented polypropylene, a second layer comprising metallized cast polypropylene, a third layer comprising cast polypropylene; and a cavity at least partially surrounded by the wall.

The present invention relates to a method of producing a cellulose-based product (103,700), wherein the method comprises the steps of: (i) providing at least two layers including one first (104a) and one second (104b) layer, and wherein said first (104a) and second layer (104b) each comprise cellulose fibers, and wherein at least one side of said first (104a) and/or said second (104b) layer is pre-treated with an adhesive coating, (ii) arranging said at least two layers including the one first (104a) and the one second (104b) layers in a superimposed relationship to each other in a forming mold (102) of a form press (101), thereby generating a stack (104) of said at least two layers including the one first (104a) and the one second (104b) layers, wherein said first (104a) and second (104b) layers are oriented within the stack (104) such that said at least one pre-treated side of said respective first (104a) and/or second (104b) layer is facing towards the superimposed layer, (iii) form pressing said stack (104) of at least two layers including the one first (104a) and the one second (104b) layers in a forming mold (102) at a forming temperature of at least 50° C. up to a forming end-pressure of at most 1100 MPa, into a cellulose based product (103, 700) of a predetermined shape and a single layer configuration, wherein in said step (iii) said layers including said one first (104a) and said one second (104b) layers are moveable with respect to each other until said forming end-pressure is reached.

Provided herein are products, methods, and kits, for use in regulating the temperature of an object. The present invention relates to thermal insulating liners for regulating the temperature of perishable goods or temperature sensitive products. The thermal insulating liners generally may be dimensioned to fit within a container. The thermal insulating liners may be quickly collapsed and reconstructed to improve stackability and diminish the amount of space required to store the thermal insulating liners prior to use.
