Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2021190795A1] The present invention relates to a process of packaging comprising the steps of providing a bottom support (1), providing a top film (2), and forming a closed chamber (C) where a portion (1a) of the bottom support, a product (P) and a portion (2a) of the top film are housed. The process provides for execution of the following further steps: sealing the portion of the bottom support (1) to the portion of the top film (2) along a sealing band (3) circumscribing the product (P) to sealingly house it in a volume (V), and forming one or more hollow structures (4) by sealing a part of said portion (2a) of the top film (2) to a part of said portion (1a) of the bottom support (1) at one or more selected seal zones. Before forming the hollow structure (4), the part of said portion of the top film and of said portion of the bottom support destined to form the hollow structure are maintained separate at a distance the one from the other.
