From Sonoco (Hartsville, SC), the resealable canister comprises an inner layer of Surlyn® from DuPont (Wilmington, DE)/foil liner/recycled paperboard. The structure provides moisture and oxygen barrier. A paper/foil bottom is seamed into the container. A foil-based peelable membrane adheres to the lip of the canister’s top to help keep the product fresh. The membrane is a six-layer extrusion laminate that includes paper, film, and foil. It’s supplied by American Packaging (Rochester, NY). The vendor also provides a wraparound paper label printed gravure in seven colors. A white high-density polyethylene overcap tops the package.
