Wrapping for packaging a product, notably a food product

Abstract

The invention relates to a wrapping having a ridge forming a tube, the joining of which to the upper transverse edge forms a leaktight border disposed between two sides of the wrapping. The ridge extends from a first lateral portion of the border to close to one side, the border having a central portion in which a cutout in communication with the packaging space is formed A precut for starting tearing is formed in the ridge and in the lateral portion, extending transversely next to the cutout, the central portion being provided with a removal line positioned in transverse continuation of the precut. The wrapping is designed to allow continuation of the tearing of the precut into the central portion in order to create, through the cutout, an opening for dispensing the packaged product.

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]This application claims the benefit of International application number PCT / FR2017 / 053848, filed Dec. 26, 2017 and French application number 1663460, filed Dec. 28, 2016 the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The invention relates to a wrapping for packaging a product, notably a food product.[0003]In particular, it applies to wrappings intended for the packaging of an individual portion of fluid food product, for example a yoghurt or compote type dessert, a cordial, a fruit juice or even a milk or coffee dose.BACKGROUND[0004]Wrappings are known comprising a flexible film the two longitudinal edges of which are joined according to a ridge forming a tube, the transverse edges of said tube then being joined to delimit a packaging space of a product.[0005]In order to allow the dispensing of the packaged product, said wrappings are conventionally arranged to be able to be torn manually, notably c...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The invention proposes a better way to open a package by making it easy to tear the top edge of the package. This is done to improve the dispensing of the product inside.

Problems solved by technology

However, for the wrappings provided with a ridge, the opening may be difficult to achieve or be achieved imperfectly, in that said ridge may hinder continuation of the tearing.

However, this solution does not provide entire satisfaction, in that it does not make it possible to guarantee a controlled tearing of the leaktight border, yet necessary for the formation of an opening suitable for correct dispensing of the product.

Yet, such a structure may be difficult to tear manually, due to the thickness thereof and due to the materials that constitute same, and this all the more so in relation to the small dimension of the border of an individual wrapping.
