Problems solved by technology

[0006] A disadvantage of this prior art container for cigarettes is that it can be difficult to extract the first cigarette from the front through the very small opening
Further, prior art configurations required either complex blanks for the shell or closure flaps provided in addition to the shell
In addition, prior art containers may require a resealable adhesive to be applied to the outer shell, which may cause manufacturing and reclosing issues during repeated use

Description

1. Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a container for consumer goods. The container is particularly suitable for storing tobacco products such as cigarettes. 2. Background technology [0002] Fragile items such as cigarettes are often packaged and placed on the market in small containers to protect the goods during transport. Such containers may be made from renewable raw materials such as cardboard and often comprise multiple parts. Typically, the softer, odorless and tasteless inner liner stores the consumer product directly, while the harder outer shell forms the container and protects the product from environmental conditions as well as external impacts. In some cases, the housing includes a hinged three-dimensional flap for closing and opening the container. The container is additionally wrapped in a clear plastic foil for further protection and as an integral seal. Document WO 2018 / 134593 A1 shows such a cigarette pack with a three-dimensional ...
