Abstract
A package for stacks of folded paper handkerchiefs is disclosed. Paper handerkchiefs (10) and similar cellulose products are offered in soft packs. An outer wrapper (blank 11) is made of paper or a (plastic) foil. A withdrawal opening (19) in the region of a front wall (12) is substantially smaller in width than the front wall (12). Likewise, a closure flap (23) which covers the withdrawal opening (19) in the closed position is smaller in width than the front wall (12), so that any variations in the measurements of the packages do not lead to undesired package configurations. The closure flap (23) is designed to be a part of an outer tab (28) of an end wall (16) of the pack. This part of the closure flap (23) is firmly connected to folding tabs of the end wall (16) disposed thereunder, so that the withdrawal opening (19) extends only up to a transverse edge (22).
