A flexible package having an inner sheet having a first surface and a second surface. The flexible package has an article reservoir for accepting an article to be shipped and one or more expansion chambers. The expansion chambers can be inflated or otherwise expanded to provide structure to the flexible package and to protect the article in the article reservoir.

A plastic film composite for film packaging with an oriented outer film and a sealing film which differs from the outer film, both of which outer film and sealing film are either polyethylene-based or polypropylene-based. The outer film and the sealing film are connected by a polyolefin-based extrusion lamination comprising at least one layer. A film packaging comprising the plastic film lamination and a method for the production of packaging containers uses the plastic film composite.
