Abstract
A closure member for a food container including a multilayer laminate having a first layer of material at least partly light-permeable, a second layer of plastic material, a third layer of repositionable adhesive material interposed between the first and the second layer, at least one inner weakening line obtained on the second layer and extending according to a predetermined geometry defining, in use, an access gap to the container, at least one outer weakening line, obtained on the second layer, proximal to the peripheral edge with respect to the inner weakening line at least at the hand gripping portion, wherein the second layer has a predetermined graphic pattern printed or realised on at least one of its faces.
Claims6
A closure member for a food container, comprising:
- a multilayer laminate peripherally delimited by a peripheral edge having a shape suitable for covering an opening of a corresponding container and defining a hand gripping portion for a user;
- the laminate comprising:
- a first layer made of a material at least partially light permeable;
- a second layer made of a plastic material;
- a third layer made of a repositionable adhesive material interposed between the first layer and the second layer;
- an inner weakening line defined on the second layer and extending according to a geometry defining, in use, an access gap to the container;
- an outer weakening line defined on the second layer, proximal to the peripheral edge with respect to the inner weakening line at least at the hand gripping portion;
- wherein the second layer includes a graphic pattern molded or formed on at least one face of the second layer,
- wherein the graphic pattern of the second layer extends at least partly astride the inner weakening line to define a tamper-evident tab.
