The invention relates to a method for top sealing a cardboard tray lined with a plastic foil. The method includes the steps of providing a cardboard tray having a bottom, upstanding walls arranged along the periphery of the bottom and a horizontal flange arranged along the upper edges of the upstanding walls, wherein the inside of the cardboard tray is lined with a plast foil, which plastic foil extends at least onto the horizontal flange; arranging the cardboard tray in a lower sealing tool member having a compressible support edge, wherein at least the horizontal flange is supported by the compressible support edge of the lower sealing tool member; arranging a cover foil over the cardboard tray arranged in the lower sealing tool member to cover the opening of the tray defined by the upper edges of the upstanding walls; and pressing a heated upper sealing tool member onto the lower sealing tool member, wherein the cover foil, the plastic foil liner and the horizontal flange are pressed together to seal the cover foil onto the plastic foil liner along the horizontal flange. The overlapping area of the plastic foil liner, the cover foil, and the compressible support edge extends at least partially outside of the area of the horizontal flange.

Apparatuses, systems, and methods are presented for a wrapper for foodstuffs. An elastomeric layer is flexible and substantially planar. A metallic layer is malleable and substantially planar. An adhesive couples the metallic layer to at least a perimeter of the elastomeric layer so that the elastomeric layer, the metallic layer, and the adhesive comprise a food covering for a container and the metallic layer is configured to conform around an edge of the container.

The invention relates to a preformed bag (1) which is manufactured continuously from a film of flexible plastic material, in particular PET/PE, with a thickness of less than 200 microns, in order to form a front wall (1a) and a rear wall (1b) assembled at the lateral sides thereof, optionally in combination with gussets (1c) and (1d), a bottom (1e) and a filling opening (1f).

In a packaging container in which a funnel-shaped spout is attached to a container body, positioning of a portion to which the funnel-shaped spout is attached is facilitated, and manufacturing costs are reduced. The packaging container includes: a container body having a body portion in which an engaging wall is provided, and a bottom portion provided at a first end of the body portion; a funnel part having a funnel shape within the body portion, and an wide opening end thereof is restricted from moving toward at least the first end by the engaging wall; and a sealing lid sealed to an opening portion which serves as the second end of the body portion while being in contact with a narrow opening end of the funnel part to seal the container body.

The present invention relates to improved contact lens packages and methods of use, manufacture, and assembly. A contact lens package houses a contact lens and packaging solution in which the contact lens may be held by surface tension to an intermediate plug, by which the user may insert the contact lens into the wearer's eye. The plug may have an adhesive that temporarily holds the plug to the user's fingertip while the contact lens is inserted into the wearer's eye.

The present invention relates to a package for containing a product comprising a support (1) which has: a base (2) configured for receiving one or more products, a perimetral edge (6) which surrounds the base (2), a removable portion (21) extending as a prolongation of the perimetral edge (6) away from the base (2). The package further comprises: a closing film (10) engaged with a portion of the perimetral edge (6) and with the removable portion (21) for defining a housing compartment (22) for the product, a gripping portion (22) emerging from the perimetral edge (6); the removable portion (21) and at least a part of the closing film (10) are configured for being separated from the support (1) during an opening step of the package. The package is configured for defining a closing condition in which: the closing film in cooperation with the support (1) prevents access to the housing compartment (5), and the removable portion (21) is aligned with at least a portion (6a) of the perimetral edge (6) from which it extends as a prolongation. The removable portion (21) has a cavity (21a) the concavity whereof, at least in the closed condition of the package, faces the perimetral edge (6); the gripping portion (22) is disposed, at least in the closed condition of the package, within said cavity (21a). The present invention also relates to a process and an apparatus for making said package.

A lid for a container, such as a beverage cup, is provided. The lid includes a top wall for covering an opening of the container. The top wall may include an inner layer and an outer layer. The inner layer may include a first perforation line defining an openable sip hole area. The outer layer may be connected to the inner layer at the openable sip hole area. The outer layer may include a tearing off area that may be torn off and result in the opening of the first perforation line to create a sip hole in the inner layer.

The present disclosure relates to an oral pouched snuff product comprising a filling material and a saliva-permeable pouch enclosing the filling material, the oral pouched snuff product having a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction perpendicular to said longitudinal direction, the saliva-permeable pouch comprising a first elongated seal and a second elongated seal, each of said first and second elongated seals having a seal length extending along the transverse direction of the product and a seal width extending along the longitudinal direction of the product, wherein the seal width of said at least one elongated seal being equal to or less than 2 mm, such as within the range of from 0.1 mm to 2 mm or from 0.1 mm to 1 mm or from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm. There is also provided a container having a base and a detachable lid together providing an interior container space in which a plurality of these oral pouched snuff products is contained.
