Abstract

Hinge-lid packs for cigarettes or other pack contents are very expensive in respect of material consumption. A saving of material is achieved as a result of bevelled longitudinal edges (26,27) and lid longitudinal edges (28,29), while preserving the storage capacity, because, in particular, side tabs (31,32) and lid side tabs (33,34) of the side wall (13) and of the lid side wall (18,19) are made with less width and hence save material.
