Abstract: The present invention relates to packaging articles comprising a rigid or semirigid tray which has a receptacle cavity comprising a thermoplastic multilayer film. The receptacle cavity is integrally formed from a thermoplastic multilayer film and is defined by a bottom panel, an upstanding sidewall and a mouth. The thermoplastic multilayer film includes at least any rigid or semirigid component and an oxygen barrier component comprising a first polyamide layer, an ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer layer, a second polyamide layer, such that the ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer layer is in direct contact with both the first and second polyamide layers.
