The pack making process involves fitting an outer shell (1) round an inner body (2) in the region of a grip-assisting layer (3). The inner body is made of a fold-forming or crumpling material. The outer shell, grip layer and inner body are then moulded together into an edging flange (7). Before this moulding takes place, a ring (14) is taken off the outer shell. This ring, which may be milled off,...
