The present invention relates to a laminated packaging material suitable for
use especially in heat-sealable packages for liquid food, such as milk, cream and
juice cartons, and to a manufacturing method of the material, and to a food package
manufactured of the material. The material comprises a core of paper or cardboard,
and oxygen and aroma proof barrier layers of EVOH and polyamide. The EVOH layer
and the polyamide layer are joined together directly without any intermediate adhesive
layer, and the barrier layers and the core are interposed between polymeric heat-sealing
layers on both sides of the material. The material is manufactured by extrusion
so that at least the materials of the said barrier layers are placed against each
other in a molten state and forwarded to the core in one web.
