Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of food packaging, in particular food packaging. One embodiment of the present invention relates to a three/dimensional cellulose/based food packaging with excellent barrier properties. For example, the present invention relates to a cellulose-based, multilayer, three-dimensional food packaging comprising a bioplastic layer, a barrier paper layer and a moulded cellulose layer. This cellulose-based, multilayer, three-dimensional food packaging has an oxygen transmission rate (OTR) of less than 30 cc/m2/d (23° C., 50% RH) and a water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of less than 20 g/m2/d (38° C., 90% RH).

Abstract: The present invention relates generally to the field of biodegradable food containers In particular, the present invention relates to rigid food containers comprising at least one layer comprising polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) and another layer comprising cellulosic fibres. For example, the food container may be a food bottle. One embodiment of the present invention relates to a rigid biodegradable food container comprising an inner container comprising at least one PHA biodegradable polymer and an outer container comprising cellulose.
