Cup package made of a fibre-based material
US-8281980-B2Abstract
The invention relates to a cup package made of a fiber-based material, such as polymer-coated packaging board, comprising a cup ( 1 ) containing a packaged product ( 2 ) and a lid ( 6 ) closing the mouth of the cup. In accordance with the invention, the cup ( 1 ) has a collar ( 5 ) bent downwardly from the mouth of the cup and diverging from the cup skirt ( 3 ), and the lid ( 6 ) has a rim ( 8 ) oriented accordingly downwardly from the collar, the lid being fixed in position by heat-sealing between said collar and rim parts. For opening the package, the lid ( 6 ) can be equipped with a tear strip ( 11 ) surrounding its rim ( 8 ). In addition, the lid ( 6 ) may be nested with the cup ( 1 ), so that compression and friction between their opposite surfaces retain the lid in position in the reclosed package.
