摘要: A method of packaging a bundle of tobacco industry products, wrapped in a barrier material (5), in a sheet of board material is disclosed. A packaging machine folds the sheet of board material to form a base (3) to contain a bundle, and to form a lid (2) rotatable relative to the base (3) between open and closed positions. The lid (2) has a front wall (11) and a lid front wall flap (15) having a rear face (16) that lies against an inner surface (17) of the lid front wall (11) to enable a label (9), that extends over a section of the barrier material (5) that defines an extraction opening (6), to be adhered to a front face (18) of the lid front wall flap (15) with adhesive so that the section is lifted to open the extraction opening (6) upon rotation of the lid (2) towards its open position. The method includes non- mechanically treating the front face of the lid front wall flap (15) to increase the receptivity of the lid front wall flap (15) to the adhesive used to adhere the label (9) to the front face of the lid front wall flap (15). A pack comprising a bundle of tobacco industry products wrapped in a barrier material (5) and received in a container formed from a sheet of folded board material is also disclosed.
