Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3461757A1] The present invention relates to a tamper-evident coupling system (1) 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 second coupling portions (13, 14) are configured for defining an arming condition in which they are firmly engaged with each other; wherein at least one of the first and second coupling portions (13, 14) comprises a weakening element (26) configured for defining a removable portion (15) configured for separating from the coupling system following a first disengagement condition of said first and second coupling portion (13, 14) subsequent to the arming condition to prevent a subsequent coupling of said coupling portions (13, 14). The coupling system (1) comprises a through opening defined on the second base portion (12) configured for enabling to display, at least during the arming condition of the coupling system (1), of at least part of the weakening element (26). The present invention also relates to a process for making the coupling system, a container comprising said coupling system as (1) well as a use of the latter.
