A packaging unit for hygiene articles and a method of forming a packaging unit

摘要

A packaging unit (301) for hygiene articles that is formed from a sheet of material having an inner surface (302) comprises an edge zone (304) comprising an inner edge portion (305, 308) and an outer edge portion(306, 307).At least one of the outer and inner edge portions comprises at least one region provided with a resealable adhesive (12).The sheet has at least one folding axis(309, 309')dividing said sheet into a first and second regions region. The sheet is folded about said at least one folding axis with said first and second regions in an overlapping configuration, thereby providing a packaging unit. Overlapping outer edge portions of the sheet layers are at least partly adhesive-free and are at least partially connected to each other by a mechanical interaction providing a sealing strength of 0.2 to 1.5 N. A method for forming the packaging unit is provided.
