Abstract: A container or lid may have a body of molded cellulose, the body of molded cellulose defining one or more walls. The wall has an outer surface and an inner surface. A depression is in the outer surface of the wall or walls. One or more labels, is or are embedded in the depression in the outer surface of the wall. A method for labelling a container or lid having a cellulose body may also be provided.

Abstract: A container comprises a monolithic plastic body having a lateral wall forming a tubular portion of the plastic container and a bottom edge portion for resting the plastic container on a ground. A bottom wall is at a bottom portion of the plastic container. The bottom wall us spaced apart from a plane of the bottom edge portion, the bottom wall and the lateral wall concurrently forming a receiving cavity of the plastic container. The bottom wall has a wall thickness between 30-50% of a wall thickness of the lateral wall. A hinge is at a junction of the bottom wall with a remainder of the container.

Abstract: A food container for microwave use comprises at least one compartment for receiving a food item, the container portion having a structural wall defining the lateral sides of the container portion. The structural wall is made of a polymer. A label is secured to the structural wall and covers continuously the lateral sides of the container portion. The label has an inner surface against the structural wall and an outer surface oriented away from the structural wall. The label comprises a substrate defining the outer surface of the label and a metallic ink defining partly the inner surface of the label. The metallic ink defines a continuous coating on the label with openings. The openings have a selected dimension to allow some microwaves to pass therethrough to reach the food item in the compartment. A method for fabricating a food container for microwave use is also provided.
