  • Tubular bags with a longitudinal seam seal and terminal transverse seam seals are particularly preferred. If the bag is torn open along the weakening, the tear continues up to a maximum of the entire circumference of the bag, although the longitudinal seam sealing prevents tearing. The kinked end piece of the bag remains attached to the longitudinal seam and the longitudinal seam seal. The contents of the bag can now be easily pushed out or consumed directly from the packaging, the broken piece of bag remaining connected to the remaining bag via the longitudinal seam and not forming a piece of bag to be disposed of individually or falling onto the floor.

  • a cutting device 15 divides the material into tubular bags 16 with the transverse seams 17 and the longitudinal seam 19.
  • the tubular bag 16 is shown in FIG.
  • the longitudinal seam 19 is located on the back and the tubular bag 16 is closed at both ends with transverse seams 17.
  • the dot-dash line 18 indicates the weakening, which is located in the region of one end of the tubular bag 16 and is covered, for example, with a printing varnish.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 show a further tubular bag 16 with the transverse seams 17 at both ends and the longitudinal seam 19.
  • the weakening 18 which is located under the print pattern produced by means of printing varnish, is shown in broken lines. If the pack is stressed, for example by gripping the pack at the transverse seams 17 and pulling it apart, the pack separates along the weakening 18 and pulling and, for example, simultaneous folding, tears the film material further, generally along a tear line 20, which is shown in dotted lines in FIG. 3.
  • the tear line 20 ends at the longitudinal seam 19, since there is a material accumulation or. Material thickening has arisen due to the folding and sealing.
  • the tubular bag 16 is thus opened along its circumference, except for the area of the longitudinal seam 19, and the contents can be easily removed, for example by pushing it out from the end.
  • the two parts of the tubular bag 16 hold together with the longitudinal seam 19 and can then be disposed of together.

  • the kinked bag part 27 is connected to the rest of the tubular bag 16 via the packaging material of the longitudinal seam 19.
  • the tearing took place along the weakening 18 and continued over the tear line 20 to the longitudinal seam 19.
  • the content 26, e.g. a chocolate bar, the tubular bag 16 can now be easily removed or consumed directly from the package.
  • FIG. 6 shows a section through the packaging material 10 in the area of the weakening 18.
  • the weakening 18 was carried out, for example, on a plastic film 21 and the weakening 18 represents a severing of the plastic film.
  • the plastic film 21 is on the side facing outward on the bag a multi-layer, usually multi-colored, print with the printing varnishes 23, 24 and 25 attached.
  • an additional layer of a printing varnish 24 was applied in the area of the weakening 18, as a result of which the total thickness of the printing varnish layer increased compared to the rest of the packaging material 10 and the weakening was securely covered, sealed and the packaging material 10 was given a tensile strength again.
  • the packaging material 10 can be provided with a sealing layer 22, in particular a sealing wax, on the side facing inwards on the bag. Sealing varnish 22 is used primarily for later sealing of the seams, but can support the effect of printing varnish 23, 24, 25.
