The present invention falls within the technical field of
Food Packaging and was developed specifically to meet the needs of the Enteral
Nutrition market. This innovation proposes a unique packaging solution, compatible with both Closed Enteral Systems and Open Enteral Systems. It is defined as an integrated opening device in the aseptic
carton packaging, which allows direct connection to the enteral feeding set without the need for external devices (such as adapters and connectors). Thus, the invention transforms the conventional use of aseptic
carton packaging—previously limited to open enteral systems—into a versatile, multi-use solution. Featuring characteristics equivalent to those of specialized packages for closed systems available in the market, this device, when incorporated into aseptic
carton packaging, enables the contained product to be administered in both closed and open enteral systems. This is made possible by its features that allow direct connection to the enteral feeding set while provide the essential functionalities of traditional aseptic carton packaging, such as the rupture of the internal protective seal, which occurs when unscrewing the cap.
