Linerless carton including easily openable pouring spout

摘要

The present invention relates to a carton which is adapted for packaging of contents which consist of granular, powdery or flaked products of the free-flowing type or of bulk commodities. The carton particularly relates to a linerless paperboard carton which includes an easily openable pouring spout which may be readily reclosed so as to maintain the carton in a positive closed condition after initial opening thereof and to thereby extend the pantry shelf-life of the package and to protect any product remaining in the carton from inadvertent spillage.
