Abstract: The method includes adhering an oxygen scavenger to a pouch material, the pouch material being gas and moisture impermeable, and joining ends of the pouch material to form a sealed inner cavity, the sealed inner cavity containing at least one first portion of the oxygen scavenger.

Abstract: The method includes infusing oxygen scavenging elements within at least a portion of an interior surface layer of at least one first polymer layer of a pouch material, the pouch material including a gas impermeable layer connected to the at least one first polymer layer, enclosing a consumable item within the pouch material, and joining ends of the pouch material to form a sealed inner cavity, the sealed inner cavity containing the consumable item.

Abstract: The pouch includes a pouch material defining an inner cavity, the pouch material includes a first polymer layer and a gas impermeable layer, the first polymer layer forms an inner surface of the inner cavity, a consumable item in the inner cavity, and an oxygen scavenger, the oxygen scavenger includes at least one active element dispersed within a matrix material, the oxygen scavenger is at least partially connected to the first polymer layer within the inner cavity, and the first polymer layer and the matrix material both include a first polymer material.

Abstract: An example embodiment includes a pouch. The pouch includes pouch material that defines an inner cavity. The pouch further includes a consumable item in the inner cavity. The pouch further includes an oxygen scavenger, at least one first portion of the oxygen scavenger being in the inner cavity. These and other pouch embodiments are disclosed, as well as methods of forming pouches.
