A lid-spout assembly for a package having a main body comprising a designated pour opening and being filled with a pourable product. The lid-spout assembly comprises at least a spout having a pouring outlet, a lid configured to selectively close and open the pouring outlet and a tethering element tethering the lid to the spout and/or the main body. The spout comprises a base frame coupling and/or configured to couple the spout to the main body about the designated pour opening and a collar carrying and/or comprising the pouring outlet and being fixed to and protruding from the base frame. The lid is moveable at least in a closed position in which the lid closes and/or seals the pouring outlet and an open position in which the lid opens the pouring outlet. The lid comprises an interaction ridge being configured to interact with the collar so as to determine a closing force with the lid being arranged in the closed position for retaining the lid in the closed position.

A spout cap is a spout cap for closing a mouth portion of a spout main body, and includes a cylindrical body portion made of resin, and a sealing film joined to the body portion, in which the sealing film has a thermal bonding layer which is configured to join to a distal end surface of the mouth portion when the mouth portion is closed.

Containers with closures are disclosed. A closure may include at least a polymer orifice reducer configured to be permanently secured to a rim of an opening of a container and a flexible tamper evident seal disposed on the topside of the orifice reducer. The flexible tamper evident seal, optionally foil, covers one or more openings in the orifice reducer. Processes for permanently securing a closure to a container, optionally by forming a heat seal between the orifice reducer and container rim, are also disclosed.

The invention concerns a plastic closure part (10) which can be fixed to a container or a further closure part to be fixed to the container, comprising a tubular discharge portion (3) whose cross-section is closed by a membrane (7) which has a tear line (8) extending peripherally over more than 180 along its outer edge and a corresponding method for the production of such a closure. In order to develop a closure part having the features set forth in the opening part of this specification and a method for the production thereof to the effect that the problems occurring upon injection moulding due to narrow flow passages are eliminated it is provided according to the invention that the tear line (8) is formed by a cut introduced into the material of the membrane (7) with a cutting or punching tool.

Discharge cap, in particular for a container for accommodating an enteral nutritional solution. The container has a discharge opening, which is sealed liquid-tight with a cover and has a projection for the arrangement of the discharge cap in the region of the discharge opening. The discharge cap can be arranged with an open front end over the discharge opening of the container and has at least one receiving opening for a discharge tap on the opposite side of the side of the discharge cap facing away from the open front end. At least one sealing body is arranged in the region of the open front end of the discharge cap. A tear-open aid is arranged below the receiving opening and in the region of the open front end, wherein the tear-open aid is moved in the direction of the open front end during insertion of the discharge tap.
