Abstract

Abstract In reclosable packages for moist cloths, consisting of a plastic film (3) with a punched-out portion on the upper side, in order to avoid loss of moisture in the region of the punched-out portion or corrosion when using composite aluminium foil, it is proposed to arrange a sheet (16, 17) which is impermeable to liquid between the flat upper side of the film and the moist cloths, covering the tear-open line or the punch cut (10, 11) and extending significantly beyond the edges of the punch cut. <IMAGE>
