Abstract:

Embodiments disclosed herein are directed to a spout fitment for a collapsible food package. The spout fitment includes a flange and a spout extending from the flange. A frangible membrane is disposed internal of the spout. The frangible membrane is configured to tear away from the spout along a tear path that is defined by a reduced thickness of the frangible membrane. A pull ring is coupled to the frangible membrane. The tear path defines at least one stress concentrator curve that is configured to reduce a pull force applied to the pull ring required to create an initial tear of the frangible membrane.
