Event Date:	Event Title:	Event Description:
01/01/1971	Vacuum formed semi rigid semi flexible liners	In 1971, CDF introduced a vacuum formed, semi-rigid semi-flexible liner. This 55 gallon steel drum insert allowed, for the first time, drums to be reused and eliminated costly cleaning and landfill requirements.
01/01/1986	Flexible Round Bottom Liners	In 1986, CDF introduced new round bottom technology to manufacture economical, lighter weight liners. Flexible round bottom products allowed drums to be easily reused and eliminated costly cleaning and landfill requirements. In addition, CDF introduced barrier films for oxygen, moisture, and hot filling applications. Once again, this allowed the rigid outer container to be easily reused or recycled.
01/01/1996	Blow Molded Semi-Rigid Semi-Flexible Liners	In 1996, CDF introduced blow molding technology where traditional products could not be used %u2013 in steel drums for UN applications and fiber drums to improve opening and closing abilities. With this new technology, CDF could control the thickness of the lip more precisely.
01/01/1996	Intermediate Bulk Container Liners	CDF%u2019s Intermediate Bulk Container liners were introduced in 1996 to reduce the need for expensive rigid packaging. With the use of our IBC liners, CDF%u2019s customers are able to reduce transportation costs of rigid containers while improving the environmental impact of cleaning these products. The innovative design maximized product efficiency, allowing the customer to get the most product possible out of the container.
01/01/2006	Cheertainer Bag-in-Box System	Cheertainer is an environmentally-friendly, innovative, alternative to traditional packaging. The Cheertainer%u2019s flexible packaging gives the end-user the best of both worlds: the flexibility of a bag-in-box, as well as the benefits of a rigid container. Its unique design provides an eco-smart choice for the customer without sacrificing the quality and reliability demanded throughout the marketplace %u2013 reduced plastic consumption minimizes packaging requirements while maximizing transportation a
01/01/2009	Vacuum Formed Flexible Cups	Introduced in 2005, our vacuum formed flexible liners, used primarily for auto body paint application, eliminated the need for rigid container systems. Its lightweight, seamless, fully collapsible design is 100% leak proof and is an industry first in flexible packaging.
