Abstract

A soft pack for paper tissues is disclosed. Soft packs for paper tissues which have a reclosable tear-open flap (21) are often provided with large-surfaced wide adhesive labels (24) to ensure a better stability. These adhesive labels are made by punching from a web of material (26) corresponding to the width of the adhesive label (24). When the adhesive is applied, an area is left out to form an adhesive-free grip tab (25). The grip tab (25) is colorcoded with an appropriate coating. A marginal strip (31) is left free from the adhesive and free from the colored coating. The punch cut is applied in the region of this strip (31).
