Abstract From the Canadian patent

An oxygen scavenging ribbon comprises a heat sealable resin and an oxygen scavenging material. This ribbon, upon oxidation of the oxygen scavenging material, does not release significant amounts of byproducts which are odorous and/or non-GRAS food additives. This ribbon can be in a number of forms including a multilayer casting or blown film tube. This ribbon provides a great deal of flexibility in the scavenging of oxygen within packaging environments.

Why it's free to use

  • Filed October 11, 1995 and granted December 16, 2003. A Canadian patent filed from October 1, 1989 lasts 20 years from filing, so its term ended October 11, 2015.
  • A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by October 11, 2017.
  • We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
