Abstract: A kit for the self-assembly of a reclosable container of consumer goods includes a disposable cartridge of consumer goods comprising: a sealed enclosure of consumer goods; and an outer housing around the sealed enclosure of consumer goods having an opening through which the sealed enclosure of consumer goods protrudes and is accessible. The kit also includes a reusable closure comprising: a dispensing aperture; and a lid moveable between a closed position, in which the lid covers the dispensing aperture, and an open position, in which the dispensing aperture is accessible. The reusable closure and the outer housing of the disposable cartridge are releasably engageable so that the dispensing aperture of the reusable closure and the opening of the outer housing are substantially aligned. The kit is particularly suitable for the self-assembly of a reclosable pack of smoking articles such as cigarettes.

Abstract: A hinge-lid pack of smoking articles such as cigarettes comprises: a box portion; a lid portion hinged to the box portion; and at least two longitudinally offset tiers of smoking articles mounted in the box portion. Each of the at least two tiers comprises a separately wrapped bundle of smoking articles. In one embodiment, the smoking articles in each of the at least two tiers are of substantially the same length and the upper ends and the lower ends of the separately wrapped bundles of smoking articles are longitudinally offset relative to one another. In another embodiment, the smoking articles in each of the at least two tiers are of different length and the upper ends of the separately wrapped bundles of smoking articles are longitudinally offset relative to one another.
