A naturally degradable vacuum-sealable plastic bag, comprising a bag body, which is composed of layers compounded from a plurality of film layers (1, 2, 3), wherein a receiving cavity is formed in the middle of the bag body, which can be used for storing food, wherein at least one of the layers of film comprises a prodegradant material, wherein polyethylene is contained in the film material for preparing and manufacturing said multiple layers, wherein the added amount of prodegradant material is approximately 5% by weight of the polyethylene.

The present invention relates to a multilayered cellulose-based substrate, comprising a cellulose-based first layer, and a cellulose-based second layer in contact with said first layer, wherein said substrate has a basis weight above 85 g/m.sup.2, wherein said first layer comprises an internal sizing agent, and wherein said second layer has been subjected to grafting with a fatty acid halide through the entire thickness of said second layer. The invention further relates to a method for manufacturing the multilayered cellulose-based substrate.

A packaged product has a product surrounded by a vacuum skin package. The vacuum skin package has a support member and an implosion-resistant thermoplastic top web. The top web conforms with both the upper surface of the product, and an uncovered portion of the upper surface of the support member. The thermoplastic top web comprises an ethylene/α-olefin copolymer in an amount of from 55 wt % to 85 wt %, based on total weight of top web, and/or a blend of ethylene/α-olefin copolymer and cyclic olefin copolymer. Also disclosed is a vacuum skin package containing the implosion-resistant top web.

Embodiments disclosed herein include multilayer films having a cling layer, a core layer, and a release layer, wherein the cling layer comprises a propylene interpolymer and the core layer comprises a core layer polyethylene composition.

The present invention relates to the production of cellulose from coffee or cocoa husks. The cellulose extracted can be used to produce paper, card stock, and cardboard. In addition, a composite material also comprising a material that allows the release of aromas is manufactured using said cellulose. Said material is used to manufacture a laminated product for use in primary, secondary and tertiary packaging applications. Said type of article allows printing on the outer surface thereof, is biodegradable and biocompatible.

The present invention relates to a biodegradable multi-layer packaging element, such as a foil or wrap, for a food product, a food packaging unit comprising such multi-layer and a method for manufacturing such biodegradable multi-layer, with the multi-layer comprising: —an inner cover layer comprising an amount of a biodegradable aliphatic polyester; —a first intermediate layer of a biodegradable material for connecting and/or sealing adjacent layers; —a functional layer comprising a vinyl alcohol polymer; —a second intermediate layer of a biodegradable material for connecting and/or sealing adjacent layers; and —an outer cover layer comprising an amount of a biodegradable aliphatic polyester.

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%.

The present application relates to a method for manufacturing an indicator for food that can visually check the quality change in food in a package state, an indicator for food manufactured therefrom, and a method for checking the storage status of food using the same. The manufacturing method of an indicator for food of the present application includes bonding a first film, on which an indicator layer including a pH-sensitive indicator is formed on one surface thereof, and a second film, on which an adhesive layer is formed on one surface thereof, so that the indicator layer of the first film and the adhesive layer of the second film can face each other.

A polymeric film, sheet, or extrusion coating is formed as a multilayered structure having at least one A layer and at least one B layer. The polymeric film, sheet, or extrusion coating is able to include at least 30% recycled content resin while also exhibiting improved stiffness and strength relative to films with purely virgin polymers. One embodiment of the present invention further presents improved oxygen barrier properties relative to existing films, sheets, or extrusion coatings. Due to the strong structural properties, the polymeric film, sheet, or extrusion coating allows for the inclusion of recycled content into applications where recycled content has previously not been able to be included, such as flexible food, pharmaceutical, or cosmetics packaging.
