A packaging system for at least one product preparation component, having a first container for storing a first product preparation component, a second container for storing at least one further product preparation component, and a closure device which seals off an opening in the first container from the environment by way of a closure element having a coupling apparatus to couple the second container to the closure device and establishes a fluid connection between the first container and the second container. The invention additionally relates to a method for handling at least one product preparation component. The aim of the invention is to ensure a reliable packaging system which allows a user-friendly handling of the contained product preparation components. The closure element and the coupling apparatus are joined together as separate components in a non-detachable manner forming the closure device.

Packaging system for at least one product preparation component and corresponding method for handling the product preparation component

A packaging system for a multi-component product preparation process, having: a first container for storing a first product preparation component, a second container for storing at least one second product preparation component, and a closure element which seals off the first container from the surroundings and has a coupling device in order to couple the second container to the closure element and in order to establish a fluidic connection between the first container and the second container. The closure element includes a closure cap which can be separated from the closure element along a predetermined breaking point in order to release the fluidic connection between the first container and the second container, wherein the closure cap can be coupled to the second container—so as to be blocked in a rotational direction about an axis of the closure element and movable in a direction parallel to the axis.

Packaging system and method for multi-component product preparation processes

A packaging system for a multi-component product preparation, having—a first container for storing a first product preparation component,—a second container for storing at least one second product preparation component and—a closure element sealing off the first container from the environment, having a coupling apparatus which couples the second container to the closure element and establishes a fluid connection between the first and the second containers. The closure element includes a closure cap which can be separated from the closure element along a predetermined break point to open the fluid connection between the first and the second containers, wherein the closure cap can be coupled to the second container being blocked in a direction of rotation about an axis of the closure element and has a thread mechanism of which the closure cap can be connected to the first container by a thread of the first container.
