Abstract: The invention relates to a five-layered, biaxially oriented, shrinkable, sealable tubular film for the packaging and wrapping of paste-like foodstuffs, meat, or meat with bones and to the use thereof. The tubular film of the invention has an inner layer comprised of at least one copolyamide and at least one modified polyolefin, a layer of a modified polyolefin, a middle layer comprised of at least one homopolyamide and/or at lest one copolyamide and/or at least one copolymer of ethylene and vinyl alcohol and/or a modified polyolefin, a layer of at least one ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, and an outer layer comprised of at least one polyolefin and/or at least one modified polyolefin. Such tubular films involve a significant improvement in the seal seam strength, in particular at low sealing temperatures, a high impermeability to oxygen and a comparable to markedly higher resistance to puncturing compared to prior art films.

Abstract: A package comprising an inner box and an outer box and provided with a hanger device for placing the package as an integral unit onto a horizontal support.The hanger device is formed by an extending end of a plate-shaped element arranged for insertion between the inner box and the outer box. The plate-shaped element is dimensioned for covering the major part of the broad side of the package.There are fixation means formed by said plate-shaped element for removably mounting said boxes to said plate-shaped element.
