  • Publication number: 20190177055
    Abstract: The present invention provides a packaging container for bulk solids. The container comprises a container body having a container wall extending from a container bottom to a container opening in a height direction of the container. The container wall and the container bottom delimit an inner space in the container, and a first peelable or tearable sealing membrane being attached to an inner surface of the container wall forms a roof over a first inner compartment in the inner space. A second peelable or tearable sealing membrane is applied between the first peelable or tearable sealing membrane and an edge of the container opening and is attached to the inner surface of the container wall. The first peelable or tearable sealing membrane forms a floor of a second inner compartment in the inner space and the second peelable or tearable sealing membrane forms a roof over the second inner compartment.

  • Publication number: 20180016056
    Abstract: A paperboard packaging container for bulk solids includes a container body formed by a container wall having wall portions, and a container bottom. The wall portions are connected by corner portions and each wall portion extends in a height direction from a lower end edge at the container bottom to an upper end edge at a container opening, the height direction being perpendicular to a cross direction of the container. An upper reinforcing rim is applied to the container opening. Each of the upper and lower end edge of the container wall has end edge portions corresponding to the wall portions. At least one edge portion has an outwardly curved shape and a radius of curvature larger than a radius of curvature of each corner edge portion, the at least one end edge portion bulges outwardly with a radius of curvature of 200-700 mm, preferably 300-600 mm, more preferably 400-500 mm.
