The invention concerns a connector (3) for connecting a powder refilling container (2) comprising at least one flexible wall with a storing powder tank (3) of a beverage preparation machine wherein the connector is a tube, said tube presenting two ends, one first end (31) being configured for piercing the flexible wall (21) of the powder refilling container and for being attached to said wall, and one second end (32) being configured for being attached to the powder inlet (31) of the storing tank.

A packing bag to store a stored article Z with tight seal by a welded sheet material 1 of resin in which a separation-prepared line portion 5, separable by predetermined tensile force F by human hands to take out the stored article Z, is provided along an opening-prepared side portion 10, the sheet material 1 has a layered unit construction in which first and second welding resin layers 61A and 61B are disposed on both sides, and a barrier layer is disposed on a middle position, the separation-prepared line portion 5 is composed of a half-cut first laser-worked groove 7A concaved on the first welding resin layer 61A and a half-cut second laser-worked groove 7B concaved on the second welding resin layer 61B, and, the first and second laser-worked grooves 7A and 7B are formed barely damaging the barrier layer 60.

A recyclable flexible pouch whose constituent parts can be easily deconstructed and placed into appropriate recycling streams. Recyclable flexible pouches having a product disposed therein are also disclosed, along with kits containing same. In addition, methods of producing the recyclable flexible pouches and packaged products are also disclosed.

The present invention relates to a flexible packaging comprising a base layer and a film layer at least partially releasably affixed to the base layer via a pressure sensitive adhesive layer. The pressure sensitive adhesive layer comprises at least one adhesive zone and at least one adhesive-free zone extending continuously in a machine direction. The film layer is scored to form at least one pull tab which is disposed within the at least one adhesive-free zone and the base layer is scored to form at least one cavity which is disposed adjacent the at least one adhesive-free zone.

In an example embodiment, a re-sealable label for covering an opening of a box includes a sheet of polymer material that includes a re-sealable adhesive on an underside thereof. A liner is adhered to the underside of the sheet of polymer material. The liner is configured to cover the opening and includes a foil layer and a paper layer. The sheet of polymer material includes a line of perforations wherein one or more of the perforations of the line of perforations include a rectilinear portion and a non-rectilinear portion.

An apparatus includes a flexible container and a port. The container includes a first layer coupled to a second layer to define a storage volume within which a tissue specimen can be contained. The first layer has a first stiffness and the second layer has a second stiffness. An edge of the first layer is spaced apart from an edge of the second layer to define an opening into the storage volume. The edges of the first and second layer form a peelable seal that hermetically seals the storage volume such that the first layer can be peeled away from the second layer to expose the storage volume. The port is coupled to the flexible container and allows fluid communication between the storage volume and an external volume.

A pack for products of the cigarette industry, having an outer pack which is made from a dimensionally stable material and is configured as a flip pack having a box part and a lid, and having at least one cuboid inner pack which is made from a dimensionally stable material, is disposed in the outer pack and encloses the products on all sides, the inner pack having a closure means which prior to the initial use of the inner pack closes a retrieval opening for retrieving individual products which extends at least in an end-side region of the inner pack, preferably additionally extends in a front-side region of the inner pack, and which is able to be converted from the state closing the retrieval opening to a state releasing the retrieval opening, with the closure means being composed of a dimensionally stable material, such as coated cardboard.

A discharge member used for discharging contents accommodated in a container includes: an attachment part to be attached to the container; and a tubular part that is formed into a tubular shape, through which the contents from the container pass, the tubular part being provided with a tubular member in which a functional resin layer is disposed as an intermediate layer inside in a radial direction. The functional resin layer provided to the tubular member is disposed closer to the outer circumferential surface among the outer circumferential surface and the inner circumferential surface of the tubular member.

Packaging for tobacco industry products is disclosed. The packaging comprises a pack (2) for holding tobacco industry products, and an outer wrapper (3) enveloping the pack. The outer wrapper comprises a removable portion (17) arranged to prevent opening of the pack until the removable portion has been removed. One of the pack and the removable portion comprises a tamper evident feature that remains attached to the other of the pack or the removable portion after the removable portion is removed from the pack. A method of packaging tobacco industry products is also disclosed.
