Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8905759A1] A blow-moulded capsular container has a localised line of weakness at which the container may be split open by digital pressure applied to the container adjacent the line of pressure. The line of weakness coincides with the floor of an external groove (7) in the surface of the container whereby contact of the line by external bodies is largely prevented. Also disclosed is a method of making and filling a capsular container comprising the steps of placing a plastics parison within a mould space and expanding the parison to conform it to the mould space, characterised by the further steps of feeding a charge of filling material into the parison, sealing the expanded and charged parison and removing it from the mould space.
