Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1466843A1] The invention relates to pack of paper handkerchiefs. The pack of the proposed invention can allow for a dual dispensing of the tissues: dispensing of folded tissue or dispensing of tissues automatically unfolding during the dispensing. The pack is conveniently used in extreme conditions, or by people having reduced finger mobility. <??>The present invention presents a pack having a dispensing orifice and a closure means (7) (such as a flap) that is hingedly connected to the pack and also has an unconnected peripheral (18) portion. In a closed position, the closure means (7) covers the dispensing orifice and overlaps the edge of that orifice by at least 2mm along said unconnected peripheral portion (18). <??>The present invention also proposes a process for manufacturing such packs. <IMAGE>
