CUP PACKAGE OF A FIBROUS MATERIAL AND A METHOD OF MANUFACTURING THE SAME

摘要

The invention relates to a cup package made of a fibre-based material and to a method for manufacturing it. The package comprises a cup (1) for the product (9) to be packaged and a lid (2) for closing the cup mouth. In accordance with the invention, the lid is partially nested in the cup, the adhesion between the inner surface of the cup and the lid retaining the lid in position. Adjacent beads, such as mouth rolls (5, 8) have been formed at the mouth of the cup and the edge of the lid, the beads acting as solder bases for the user's fingers/when the package is opened. The lid can be formed by connecting a discoid centre (6) and a surrounding frame (7) and by equipping the frame with a mouth roll by a technique corresponding to the manufacture of a cup formed of a bottom (4) and a mantle (3) connected to this.
