Abstract
A closing element for a packaging for receiving liquid or paste-like material, especially for film bags, and having a closable spout member, a weld member adjoining the closable spout member, and an outlet channel which extends through the weld member and the spout member, and also a film bag comprising such a closing element. To improve the pouring characteristics and for an easier emptying of the contents of the bag, the outlet channel in the weld member extends at least in part in funnel-like manner towards the spout member.
