Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3453637A1] The present invention relates to a coupling system (1) made of tamper-evident sheet material comprising: a first base portion (11), a second base portion (12), a first coupling portion (13) borne by the first base portion (11), a second coupling portion (14) borne by the second base portion (12). The first and the second coupling portions are configured for defining an arming condition in which they are stably engaged with each other. At least one between the first and the second coupling portion (13, 14) comprises a removable portion (15) configured for separating from the coupling system upon a first disengagement condition of the first and second coupling portion (13, 14) following the arming condition for preventing a following coupling of the first and second coupling portion (13, 14). The coupling system comprises a supporting portion (16) constrained to the second base portion (12) and/or the second coupling portion (14); said supporting portion is configured, during an initial contact step between the first and the second coupling portion (13, 14), for supporting the second coupling portion. The present invention also relates to a process for making the coupling system, a container comprising said coupling system as well as a use of the latter.
