The patent EP3906154 was granted to Amcor Flexibles North America on Oct 4, 2023. The application was originally filed on Dec 31, 2018 under application number EP18945389A. The patent is currently recorded with a legal status of "Granted And Under Opposition".

Patent oppositions filed by competitors challenge the validity of a granted patent. These oppositions are typically based on claims of prior art, lack of novelty, or non-obviousness. They are a key part of the process for determining a patent's strength and enforceability.
Patent citations refer to prior patents cited during different phases such as opposition or international search.
