Abstract: The present invention relates to a blister package consisting of a lower web in which a row of cavities is provided, and an upper web which is welded to the provided lower web, and wherein perforation lines are provided between adjoining cavities, and wherein there is an area in connection with each cavity where the upper web is not welded to the lower web, such that a snip is created, said upper web being welded to the lower web by a first inner weld which surrounds the cavity completely, as well as a second outer weld which surrounds the cavity around the first weld and adjoins the area where the upper web is not welded to the lower web. The invention also relates to a method of making the blister package.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a blister package (1) consisting of a lower web in which a row of cavities (3) is provided, and an upper web (12) which is welded to the provided lower web, and wherein perforation lines (7) are provided between adjoining cavities, and wherein there is an area (6) in connection with each cavity where the upper web is not welded to the lower web, such that a snip is created, said upper web being welded to the lower web by a first inner weld (4) which surrounds the cavity completely, as well as a second outer weld (5) which surrounds the cavity around the first weld and adjoins the area where the upper web is not welded to the lower web. The invention also relates to a method of making the blister package.

Abstract: A laminate for use in packages comprises a base layer (3), a welding layer (1), and an adhesive layer (2) sandwiched there between. The adhesive layer (2) is a hot melt or a pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) having a shear rate of 10-150 minutes at 40° C. in a test area of 12.5 mm×25 mm. The welding layer (1) comprises a layer of a polyethylene (PE) copolymer, and optionally an additional layer of PET, PE, such as low density polyethylene (LDPE) and/or PP. The method of making the laminate involves applying a base layer (3), an adhesive layer (2) of hot melt/PSA and subsequently a welding layer (1) in one working process to form a reclosable laminate (9). This laminate may serve as a reclosable lid and exhibits a reduced risk of cracks or so-called piping in the laminate.
