Abstract:
1. A pack for an article, the pack comprising: a cylindrical body having a cross-section comprising at least one convex curved portion and at least one concave curved portion having a radius of curvature similar to a radius of curvature of the convex portion, wherein said cylindrical body comprises at least one sheet conformed to said cross-section, said sheet having side edges fastened pairwise to one another along at least one fastening zone extending longitudinally to said body, the sheet defining an opening at least at one end of the body, wherein the at least one sheet includes a first sheet portion and a second sheet portion, wherein said second sheet portion includes a first lid for closing a top or a bottom of said cylindrical body, said first lid including a convex curved wall and a concave curved wall, and wherein a radius of curvature of the convex curved wall of said first lid is similar to the radius of curvature of the convex curved portion of the cylindrical body and a radius of curvature of the concave curved wall of said first lid is similar to the radius of curvature of the concave curved portion of the cylindrical body such that a profile of said first lid substantially corresponds to said cross-section of said cylindrical body.
