Abstract: A method of decreasing the bulge of gable top cartons by evaluating and modifying top sealing heat patterns. Cartons are formed, dye stained and the quality of the seal evaluated for heat damage and top seal quality. The heating pattern is adjusted as required, and the resulting heat seal is reevaluated to determine if further adjustments are required, so that the resulting cartons can achieve a near air-tight condition in the headspace of the carton to thereby resist bulging.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved container for food and non-food products. The container utilizes a novel paperboard barrier laminate structure which maintains an isolated gas environment in the container. The laminate makes use of a high strength, heat-resistant and caulking polymer layers which prevent pinholes, cuts, or cracking of the barrier layers during blank conversion, package formation, and package distribution. In addition, the novel polymer resin layers act to caulk the seams and channels present in the carton providing a sealed leak free container.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved composite barrier laminate for an improved container for citrus juices and other liquids. The container utilizes a paperboard barrier laminate for the containment of essential oils and the prevention of losses of vitamin C. The laminate makes use of an inner barrier layer of a heat-sealable oxygen and flavor oil barrier material to enhance the barrier properties of the laminate as well as an extremely thin low density polyethylene food contact layer to provide a resultant secure homogenous non-polar heat seal.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved container for citrus juices and other liquids. The container utilizes a paperboard barrier laminate for the containment of essential oils and the prevention of losses of Vitamin C. Also disclosed is a process of making the laminate. The laminate makes use of a layer of a heat-sealable glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate to enhance the barrier properties of the laminate.
