Abstract: The present invention is directed to a waste packaging system, a method of storing waste and to a film for use in this system and method.

Abstract: The present invention provides a multilayer heat shrinkable film incorporating an oxygen barrier material and layer containing a styrene polymer or blend of styrene polymers, where the shrinkage of the film in at least one of MD, TD is at least 30% at 90° C. The invention is further directed to a method of manufacturing a bag from said multilayer heat shrinkable film.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a polymer blend formulation and to heat shrinkable film, bags, pouches and the like made therefrom. The invention is further directed to a method of producing a heat shrinkable film with the proper gas permeability properties so that it is ideal for packaging and preservation of gassing cheese.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a waste packaging system, a method of storing waste and to a film for use in this system and method.

Abstract: A heat shrinkable film having a shrinkage of at least 10% measured according to ASTM 2732 in water at 90° C. in a least one of MD and TD directions, where the film comprises an outer layer comprising polyester elastomer and a core layer comprising EVOH and/or PVDC. The film can be characterized by a combination of desirable properties, such as high shrinkage, good optical properties, excellent sealability and stack sealability. A method of producing a packaged food item by using a heat shrinkable film is provided. The use of a heat shrinkable film or bags and pouches made therefrom for packaging goods, for example, food products, is also provided.
