  • the containers are usually transparent chutes, each containing a variety of confectionery and can be filled out of disposable packaging out with the respective product if necessary.
  • spills is considered disadvantageous that they must be cleaned when used for confectionery, such as sugar-sprinkled fruit gums, frequently, on the one hand to meet the hygienic requirements and on the other hand to ensure an attractive presentation of the goods.
  • churning usually can not close well, which mainly fruit gum or licorice in prolonged storage in the chute lose their taste and desired consistency.
  • thermoplastic cans which consist of a tub-or bucket-like base and a flat lid.
  • the upper edge of the base and the complementary outer edge of the lid have a complementary shape, so that they are can be connected to each other almost airtight by a locking engagement.
  • the thermoplastic from which the cans and caps are made is usually transparent polypropylene or polyethylene.
  • a module for presenting goods comprising a plurality of containers of the type mentioned.
  • the containers serve to receive one or more Disposable packaging with pre-portioned goods, which are placed without a lid in a receiving space of the receptacle.
  • the receptacle has there a first opening for introducing the open disposable packaging and a second openings for removing the loose goods from the open disposable packaging.
  • the first opening has a cover, while the second opening is provided with a hinged lid, which can be opened by customers.
  • a disadvantage is considered above all the not inconsiderable expense for producing the container.
  • the present invention seeks to improve a container of the type mentioned in that air access to the loose goods with less effort and still prevents an attractive presentation and easy removal of loose goods is possible.
