Abstract: A multilayer foam film suitable for direct and non-direct food contact and aseptic packaging application is disclosed.

Abstract: A multilayer foam film comprising high density polyethylene for direct and non-direct food contact and aseptic packaging application is disclosed. In an embodiment, the film has a bulk density of less than 0.962 gr/cm3 wherein more than 50% of the cells in the foam layer are closed cells. In an embodiment, the foam films are thick (generally more than 8 mils thick) and have a bending stiffness value of more than 18, in Taber stiffness unit configuration according to TAPPI/ANSI T 489 om-15, and the ratio of the mass per unit area (the mass of a unit area of the film in gram per meter-squared (gr/m2)) over the stiffness value in Taber unit configuration is equal to or less than 13. In an embodiment, the film has a very smooth surface with a smoothness value of less than 25 in Sheffiled smoothness unit configuration according to TAPPI T 538. The described foam film can have a water vapor transmission rate value of less than 1 gr/m2/24 hr, according to ASTM E398-13.

Abstract: Plastic containers and methods of forming the same are described. In some cases, the container is a recyclable multilayer extrusion blow-molded plastic container comprising high-density polyethylene with an enhanced oxygen barrier properties. The containers may be used for direct and non-direct food contact packaging, liquid packaging, as well as in aseptic packaging applications. The containers can have an oxygen transmission rate, according to ASTM D3985, of less than 10 cc/m2.day. The containers can be recycled in the HDPE recycling stream.

Abstract: A multilayer foam film comprising high density polyethylene for direct and non-direct food contact and general packaging application is disclosed. In an embodiment, the film has a bulk density of less than 0.962 gr/cm3 wherein more than 50% of the cells in the foam layer are closed cells.

Abstract: A collapsible container that comprises first and second sidewalls and first and second end walls pivotally connected to a base. The first sidewall includes at least one latching member that cooperates with a latching member of the first end wall to secure the first sidewall and the first end wall together when the first sidewall and the first end wall are in upright positions. The container also includes a wall locking system that has a plurality of locking members on the first sidewall and at least one locking member on the first end wall. The locking member on the first end wall cooperates with the locking members on the first sidewall to prevent the first sidewall from moving relative to the first end wall in at least one direction when the first sidewall and first end wall are in upright positions. The container further includes a wall alignment system that has a first member extending from one of the sidewalls, and a second member that extends from one of the end walls.
