A system for introducing an additive into a container includes an automated device for transporting the container in a horizontal plane (P), such as a rotary wheel. The system further includes a static microdoser having a nozzle from which a jet of an additive issues upon passage of an opening of the container. Additive is so injected into the container.

The invention relates to a sheet material (3) from which at least one delivery wall (300) for closing a chamber (250) of a capsule body (200) of a beverage capsule (100) for preparing a beverage, can be obtained by cutting or punching of the sheet material (3), the delivery wall (300) comprising in a layered manner in the following order: - a carrier layer (320) forming a base layer for carrying subsequent layers, - a barrier layer (340) for providing a preferably bidirectional barrier against moisture and/or gas, the barrier layer (340) being preferably made of a different material than the carrier layer (320); the barrier layer (340) being applied on the carrier layer (320), - an optional protective layer (350) provided on the surface of the barrier layer (340) opposite the carrier layer (320), and - an adhesive layer (330) positioned on the surface of the delivery wall (300) that is oriented towards the chamber (250) for sealing the delivery wall (300) to a rim portion (211) of the capsule body (200), the adhesive layer covering a maximum of 90%, preferably 80%, most preferably 70% of the delivery wall and being at least applied around the perimeter of the delivery wall (300), along its periphery, over a radial distance D comprised between 3 and 12 mm, preferably between 5 and 10 mm, wherein the sheet material (3) comprises cutting area identification means (370, 380) of at least one delivery wall (300) for a cutting device adapted to cut the at least one delivery wall (300) from the sheet material (3). The invention also concerns a method for obtaining, from the sheet material of the invention, at least one delivery wall (300) for closing a chamber (250) of a capsule body (200) of a beverage capsule (100) for preparing a beverage.
