Abstract

In cartons made from laminated packaging material wherein a peelably removable section of the outer ply is defined by a weakened tear line and said section is unadhered to the substrate, resistance to unauthorized tampering or removal of such section from said container is achieved by utilizing a water soluble adhesive as a laminant and including a border area of said section at the starting point of the tear outline within the area of adherence by said laminant to thus require application of moisture to said border area to dissolve said adhesive at said area before the tearing away of such section can be accomplished.
