Abstract (en)

The invention relates to an end for a container. The end (200a ...) comprises a central panel (212a ...), a tab (240a ...), at least one stabilizing bead (213a ...) and a depression (214a ...). The central panel (212a ...) defines an x-y-plane and a z-direction is perpendicular to the x-y-plane. The tab (240a ...) is attached to the end (200a ...) and the tab (240a ...) comprises a front portion (241a ...) and a rear portion (242a ...). The tab (240a ...) extends in a positive z-direction. The at least one stabilizing bead (213a ...) is shaped in the end (200a ...) and the bead (213a ...) extends in the positive z-direction. The depression (214a ...) is formed in the end (200a ...) and the depression (214a ...) extends in a negative z-direction. The depression (214a ...) is shaped and positioned to allow a human finger to reach at least in part below the rear portion (242a ...) of the tab (240a ...). The tab (240a ...), the bead (213a ...) and the depression (214a ...) are shaped and positioned such that the end (200a ...) as a first end (200a ...) is stackable with a second end (200b ...), wherein the x-y-planes of the central panels (212a,212b ...) of the first and second end (200a,200b ...) are parallel ±2.0 ° when being stacked, and wherein the first end (200a, ...) and the second end (200b ...) are same ends (200a,200b ...).
