1. Basic principle
The basic principle is simple: each layer (or support material) of flexible packaging has specific properties (permeability, mechanical strength, printability, visual appearance, etc.).

The ultimate aim is to create a structure with the characteristics contributed by the different layers. These characteristics are deemed necessary for the packaged product, or for the function requested by the consumer (figure 1 ).
