An insulated packaging material includes a thermal insulating layer, which may
a fiberfill batt. The batt is laminated to at least one facing layer of film, paper
or fabric. The packaging material can be used as a container, such as a pouch.
A food-contacting polymer material is applied to the facing layer to form the inner
surface of the pouch. The packaging material may be coated on the outer facing
layer with a coating material so that it is printable, thus imparting both insulating
properties and print capability to the pouch.
