1. A device for emptying a flexible bag comprising a fluid product, the device comprising:
a tray comprising a base having at least a top flat surface and two side members rigidly mounted on the base, perpendicularly to the base, the base being arranged substantially horizontally, namely along a front-rear direction and a left-right direction,
a pressure element having at least a flat bottom face, for pressing downwards on a flexible bag under the influence of gravity,
wherein the tray comprises guiding means for guiding the pressure element, as the pressure element goes downwards when the bag is emptying, and
the pressure element exhibiting a gravity center and a geometric center, and the gravity center being away from the geometric center,
wherein the pressure element is monolithic with a thickness gradient, with or without steps.
