Summary:A process for manufacturing packaged lancets, comprising the steps: providing a tape comprising a plurality of lancets comprising a lancet tip and a lancet body, enveloping at least the lancet tip with at least one foil, whereby the at least one foil build a first and a second portion that overlap at least partly, sealing the at least one foil with a laser beam at least at the edges of the first and second portion of the overlapping parts. The invention further concerns a device for collecting body fluid, comprising: a lancet, with a lancet tip and a lancet body, and at least one foil, that envelopes at least the tip of the lancet whereby the at least one foil builds a first and a second portion that overlap each other at least partly, wherein the foil is sealed after enveloping at least a part of the lancet by treating at least the edges built by the two partly overlapping portions of the at least one foil with a laser to keep at least the lancet tip in a hermetic surrounding.
