(54)	Flexible containers for liquids

(57) A container for liquid, such as herbicide, comprises a liquid-impermeable wall comprising two skins (2, 8) of plastics material. The skins (2, 8) are held apart from each other by a spacer structure (6). The wall of the container is thus less vulnerable to puncture because both skins (2, 8) need to be pierced before leakage will occur. The container is particularly suitable for packaging herbicide.
