Abstract

A package for flowable goods includes an inner thin-walled plastic body for receiving pourable goods. The inner plastic body has a rectangular cross section, and is surrounded by a supporting envelope having an open top and bottom, and an upper stacking edge for resting on the plastic hollow body in the packaging position. A depression is formed in at least one corner of the inner body for receiving a tongue of the supporting envelope, whereby the tongue is cut out transversely to the corner depression, and hinged via two lateral edges for permitting the tongue to be folded into the depression.
