Ein Verpackungsbeutel aus Folienmaterial für ein im wesentlichen keimfreies Verpacken von fliess- oder schüttfähigen Produkten, insbesondere Nahrungsmitteln oder Getränken, in Abfüllanlagen umfasst ein in eine schlitzförmige Öffnung eines umfänglich abgedichteten Beutelbasisteiles (1) hermetisch abdichtend befestigtes formstabiles Einsetzteil (2) mit einem eine Durchlasspassage (4) definierenden Halsbereich (3) mit Hintergreifmitteln, welche mit angepassten Hintergreifmitteln an einer Verschlusskappe (5) in Eingriff bringbar sind, um die Verschlusskappe zum Verschliessen der Duchlasspassage am Halsbereich des Einsetzteiles zu montieren. Die Hintergreifmittel umfassen an entweder dem Halsbereich (3) oder der Verschlusskappe (5) vorgesehene erste und zweite Hintergreifbereiche (14,15), die mit den betreffenden Hintergreifmitteln (13) am anderen Teil nacheinander in Eingriff bringbar sind, dergestalt, dass die Verschlusskappe in einer ersten und zweiten abdichtenden Position am Halsbereich montierbar ist, wobei die Verschlusskappe wenigstens in der ersten abdichtenden Position zerstörungsfrei vom Halsbereich abnehmbar ist.
