Definitions
- This invention relates to a bag-in-box system for use in dispensing a pumpable product, comprising a carton, a flexible thermoplastic pouch, a spout joined to the pouch, a spout closure, and a pumpable product disposed in the pouch.
- Collapsible thermoplastic pouches are often used to store pumpable products.
- the pouches are typically housed in a corrugated paperboard or other rigid or substantially rigid carton to aid in the transporting, handling and dispensing of the product.
- Such systems are commonly referred to as "bag- in-box” (BiB) packaging systems, and include a carton, a flexible pouch, a spout joined to the pouch, a spout closure, and a pumpable product disposed in the pouch.
- a number of BiB applications require pouches with a combination of high barrier and toughness during processing, shipping, and handling.
- multi-ply laminates having metallized polyester substrates are sometimes employed as at least a portion of the pouch material, sometimes with a polyethylene liner. Also used are barrier films having a coextruded multilayer construction.
- a shortcoming with metallized pouch materials is the occurrence of pinholes in the pouch due to flex cracking. This phenomenon, sometimes caused by vibrational stresses imparted during shipping and distribution of filled pouches, can compromise the oxygen barrier properties of the pouch, and in turn adversely affect the shelf life of the contents of the pouch.
- Coextruded multilayer barrier films used in pouch construction can sometimes lack sufficient toughness in terms of burst strength.
- thermoplastic pouch comprises
- a core layer bonded to said first intermediate layer comprising an ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer or a chemically modified polyolefinic adhesive
- the film is a collapsed lay-flat tubular film
- a discrete inner wall comprising ethylene polymer or copolymer
- the outer wall sealed to the discrete inner wall at the perimeter of the pouch.
- the outer wall further comprises an abuse- resistant layer disposed between the heat-sealable layer and the first tie layer, comprising a material selected from very low density polyethylene, ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer with a fractional melt index, and ionomer.

- BIB pouches which exist in the market place today were also tested using an ASTM 4169D procedure. These irradiated pouches had a 4 mil metallized PET outer layer and a 2 mil PE liner. The bag dimensions and box sizes were the same as those used for FE4 and FE5 film tests. Pouch body failures were observed in 74% of the samples. Because of the mPET outer layer, it was not possible to detect how many samples had a leak in the PE layer only. Table 7 below summarizes these results:
- a filled pouch 14 in carton 12 can be delivered to an end user (e.g. a worker in a restaurant, or a consumer), after storage if necessary.
- the end user can also be provided a pump for use with the particular pouch.
- pump 20 or 60 can be attached directly or indirectly to the pouch by insertion of a portion of the pump into the pouch, either at the location of the spout, or at another portion of the pouch, for retentive engagement with the pump.
- the pouch of the dispensing system is absent a metallized layer.
- the dispensing system further comprises a pump in connected relationship with the pouch.
