Abstract

Abstract Tightly sealed containers are formed from blanks made of a substrate permeable to gas with a coating of a material substantially impermeable to gas applied to at least one surface of the blank. Selected areas of the coated surface of the blank are treated with a perforating material to form perforations through the coating but not the substrate in these areas, thereby permitting penetration of gas into and out of the container. By control of the size of the area perforated and the number and size of the perforations, the rate at which gas may enter and leave the container may be controlled.
