Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2018160638A1] A container for consumer goods includes a rigid outer box (102), a rigid inner box (106), and a pull tab (114) arranged over a pre-cut opening (110) in the inner box (106). The pull tab (114) includes a paper liner larger than the pre-cut opening (110) such as a piece of bundle wrap with a paper layer (138) of the bundle wrap contacting the consumer goods inside the box. The outer box (102) has a hinged lid permanently attached to a connecting tab of the pull tab whereby opening the hinged lid simultaneously opens the opening (110) in the inner box (106) by lifting the pull tab (114). The pull tab (114) includes a re-stick adhesive arranged in a single zone which adheres the piece of bundle wrap to cover the opening and the re-stick adhesive outward of the piece of bundle wrap allows the pull tab to reseal to the outer surface of the inner box.
