Abstract (en)
[origin: US2007102317A1] The invention is directed to the problem of opening packages and in particular thermoformed packages. The package is comprised of a first section and a second section. Each section has a peripheral edge that extends substantially around each section. On at least one area the peripheral edge of each section is extended, the extensions including an aperture. The peripheral edge of the first section and the second section are bonded together except for the extensions of the peripheral edges. In order to open the package a finger is placed through the aperture of each extended peripheral edge and pulled in opposite directions. The peripheral edge of each section yields to open the package. Essentially any item can be packaged in the package, with soap bars being a preferred item.
