Appl. No.:

13/760921

Inventors:

The Glad Products Company - Oakland CA, US
Robert T. Dorsey - Western Springs IL, US
Jason R. Maxwell - Elgin IL, US

Assignee:

The Glad Products Company - Oakland CA

International Classification:

B65D 85/67

US Classification:

206389

Abstract:

A thermoplastic food wrap film including a plurality of parallel ribs formed therein. To produce the film, a thermoplastic web may be directed between opposing first and second rollers having ridges. The formation of the ribs may increase the width of the web. The film may be formed into a roll and inserted into a box having a cutting strip.

Abstract:

Methods of enhancing one or more physical properties of a thermoplastic film include incrementally stretching thermoplastic films in the machine direction and/or transverse direction. In one or more implementations, methods of incrementally stretching thermoplastic films include reducing the gauge of the films while maintaining or increasing a ratio of the machine direction to transverse direction resistance to tear. The methods can involve cold stretching the films and imparting rib patterns into the film. The linear ribs can have alternating thick and thin gauges.
