Abstract: Casing (1000) for transporting food or beverage product, comprising a side panel part (1200) comprising at least two side panels (1201, 1202), each side panel comprising a peripheral free edge (1211, 1212) and a sealing margin (1221, 1222) along the peripheral free edge, and one band (1100), made from one sheet, and comprising a sealing area which is sealed to the sealing margin (1221, 1222) of both side panels, forming a flange (1300) extending outward. Blank for forming such casing and method for manufacturing such casing.

Abstract: The invention deals with a method for manufacturing a strip (100) of packages (30, 40), the method comprising steps of:—Providing a first shell (10) comprising a first part (11) of a first cavity (31) comprising a rim (12), and a flange (13);—Providing a second shell (20) comprising a first part (21) of a second cavity (41) comprising a rim (22), and a flange (23);—Positioning the first part (11) of the first cavity aside the first part (21) of the second cavity with one part of the flange (13) of the first shell overlapping one part of the flange (23) of the second shell; and—Linking the part of the flange (13) of the first shell to the part of the flange (23) of the second shell. The invention also deals with a corresponding strip (100) of packages (30, 40).

Abstract: The invention relates to a package (11) containing one portion of beverage precursor (2) for preparing a beverage in a beverage preparation apparatus (100). The package comprises a pair of packaging sheets (12, 13) sealed to one another for enclosing and sealing the portion of beverage precursor (2) individually in a substantially oxygen and external humidity impervious manner by the sheets being sealed together about the portion (2). In the package, the sheets (12, 13) are forming a cavity (14, 15) covering the beverage precursor portion (2) on each side, wherein the cavity (14, 15) is provided with a ridge (18, 19) on at least one of the sheets (12, 13), the ridge (18, 19) being configured to cooperate with a protrusion part (31, 41) of the beverage preparation apparatus (100).

Abstract: In order to rapidly load from a server (1) an application to be deployed (AP) in a terminal (2) and a chip card (3), a message (MAP) containing both a first application part and second application part formatted so as to be compatible with a protocol for communication between the terminal and the card is transmitted by the server to the terminal, which stores the two parts. The first part (APT) extracted from the application message (MAP) is installed in the terminal. A specific loader (CAPC) loads the second part (APC) extracted from the message according to the communication protocol. The installations of the two application parts are thus synchronous under the control of the terminal.
