Abstract

Packaging particularly for display on a Euro-hook or the like comprises a bag or pouch (10) closed at one end by means of a header (14). A line of weakness (18) extends across the header dividing it into an outer portion (14A) and an inner portion (14B) both of which are sealed. An aperture (16) is provided in the outer portion (14B) of the header for suspending the packaging for display purposes. The outer portion (14A) can be separated from the inner portion after removal from the display hook by tearing along the line of weakness. The seal in the inner portion (14B) of the header is peelable to allow for ease of opening. A method of manufacturing the package and an apparatus (30) for forming the packaging are also disclosed. The apparatus includes a pair of cross jaws (32) having a punch for forming the aperture and at least one knife guide.
