Abstract

Container for consumer articles, the container being at least partially formed from a laminar blank (100), the laminar blank defining a portion of the container, which includes: a first planar wall (101); a second planar wall (102) connected to the first planar wall by a first modified edge portion (104); and a third planar wall (103) connected to the first planar wall by a second modified edge portion (105). The first modified edge portion is defined by an ablation area, on its inner surface, having one or more ablated lines (201-206) each having a residual thickness less than the thickness (T) of the laminar blank, the first modified edge portion an end portion tapering from a width (W) of the first portion to a point at the junction with the second modified edge portion. The second modified edge portion is defined by a plurality of creasing lines (300).
