Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9525050A1] A tube comprising a tubular member (1) forming a reservoir, a flexible element (2) and a cap (3). The tube is sealed by the flexible element (2) which comprises at least one aperture (7) with at least two projecting tabs (10) provided around the edge thereof which face out of the tubular member (1) and are curved towards the axis of the aperture (7), whereby a granule passing through the aperture (7) becomes lodged between the tabs (10) and cannot pass through into the cap (3). The cap (3) includes at least one axially extending blade (13) for engaging the flexible element (2), pushing the granule caught between the tabs (10) out into the cap (3) by resiliently bending the tabs (10), and moving the granules (9) around the inside of the tubular member (1).
