Abstract
A closure for a sealed container of a pourable food product includes a pouring spout which has at least a layer of gas- and/or light-barrier material and a pour opening closed by a cover portion on the side opposite to the side facing, in use, the container, and a cap fittable to, and removable from, the pouring spout; the cover portion has a through cut at its periphery and is joined to a top wall of the cap superimposed on the cover portion, so that the cover portion defines a layer of gas- and/or light-barrier material of the cap and can be removed together with the cap from the pouring spout during first unsealing of the closure; a sealant is provided on a given area of the top wall of the cap for cooperating with a region of the pouring spout.
