ABSTRACT:
A container for a fluid, comprising a pouring element comprises a pouring spout manufactured from a flexible material which is connected by a sealing connection (5) to the container. A pouring spout manufactured from flexible material, for instance plastic foil or a plastic laminate foil with for instance aluminum, is much less expensive than the containers heretofore provided with a pouring spout. According to a preferred embodiment the pouring element is provided with a once-only breakable closure (10) and with a resealable closure (7, 21).
