(54) Container for dispensing volatile substances


(57) A container for dispensing volatile substances, of the type provided with a box-like shell (2) made of impermeable material, having an outer perimetric edge (3) along which the outer edge (4) of a semipermeable film (5) is heat-sealed, the film being associated with a film (6) made of metallic material that can be removed before use, the lower portion (7) of the box-like shell (2) being considerably lower and having longitudinal ribs (9a, 9b) that form a plurality of flattened longitudinal evaporation regions (10a, 10b, 10c), the upper edge of the box-like shell being provided with a channel (11) which, together with the semipermeable film (5), forms a duct (12) for the inflow of the compensating air that replaces the volume of the volatilized substance in order to avoid the collapse of the container.
