Abstract: Co-extruded multilayer packaging films suitable for packaging fluid products, showing a very good balance of mechanical, chemical and, optionally, barrier properties, good sealability, heat resistance and unexpectedly improved optical properties, a process for their manufacturing, pouches and packages obtained from them, are disclosed. These films comprise a core layer (D) comprising a polyamide; two tie layers (C), directly adhered to the opposite surfaces of the core layer; at least one intermediate layer (B), directly adhered to the opposite surface of a tie layer (C), comprising high density polyethylene; and two outer layers (A) comprising an ethylene/alpha olefin copolymer.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vacuum skin package suitable for the packaging of respiring cheeses, such as gassing cheeses and moulded cheeses. The package comprises a support member and a flexible skin-forming film draped over the cheese product wherein the support member has an oxygen transmission rate in the range of from 80 to 500 cm3/m2-day-bar at 23° C. and 0% RH and the flexible film has an oxygen transmission rate greater than 60 cm3/m2-day-bar at 23° C. and 0% RH.
