    Abstract: A packaged tobacco product includes a pouch and tobacco material disposed in the pouch. The pouch has a front wall and a back wall connected to one another along opposing first and second side edges. The pouch is configured to be opened along a top portion of the pouch to form an opening to provide access to the tobacco material in the pouch. The pouch includes a closure assembly having first and second releaseably attachable parts. The first part is on the front wall of the pouch. The second part is on either the front wall or the back wall of the pouch. The second part is closer to the opening than the first part. When the first and second parts are attached, a portion of the back wall wraps around at least a portion of the second part of the closure assembly to seal the pouch.

    Abstract: A re-sealable cuboid-like package for loose smokable material formed from a one-piece multilayer blank. The package includes a receptacle portion (6) for containing loose smokable material (4) with an access opening (28) and a flap (8) moveable between a folded position, in which the flap is folded at least partly around the receptacle and overlies the opening, and an extended position, in which the flap extends outwardly from the receptacle portion. A re-sealable cover layer (30) is attached to an inner surface of the flap (8) to enable movement of the layer between a closed position in which it covers the access opening and an open position in which the access opening is substantially uncovered, the cover layer being sealed in place by a repositionable adhesive.

    Abstract: There is provided a smoking article comprising a filter. The filter comprises a hollow tube having an inner surface. The filter further comprises a flow restrictor disposed in the hollow tube, and adapted to divert at least a portion of the flow of mainstream smoke between an outer surface of the restrictor and the inner surface of the hollow tube. Furthermore, the filter comprises a retaining element disposed downstream of the flow restrictor, the retaining element having one or more openings. Each of the openings of the retaining element has at least one cross-sectional dimension that is smaller than the smallest cross-sectional dimension of the flow restrictor to prevent the flow restrictor from moving downstream of the retaining element. The flow restrictor is substantially spherical, at least one cross-sectional dimension of the one or more openings of the retaining element being smaller than the diameter of the flow restrictor.

    Abstract: The container may comprise a box, a lid, at least a first bundle and a second bundle of consumer goods, and an expandable spacer. The expandable spacer comprises at least one spacer weakening line. The at least one spacer weakening line is provided on the spacer bottom wall. The expandable spacer has an initial size that is defined by an initial distance between the first side wall and the second side wall of the expandable spacer for containing a predetermined number of consumer goods. The spacer weakening line is configured to break when more than the predetermined number of consumer goods are inserted between the expandable spacer walls so that the first and the second side walls of the expandable spacer are spaced further apart. Methods of using disclosed containers are also disclosed.
