Abstract

In the manufacture of composite paperboard/polymer packages, the adhesion between the polymer component and paperboard component can be enhanced by treating the polymer film with a surface treatment, for example, ozone, before the two components are brought together. The present invention is particularly applicable to a blow molding process employing one or more paperboard blanks and a blow molded polymer film.
