Abstract

A vacuum-assisted process for making a fluid-containing water-soluble pouch comprising the steps of a) placing a first sheet of elastic film material over a horizontal mould comprising a cavity and a flange; b) drawing the film material into the cavity with vacuum assistance while maintaining the film under tension to form an open pouch; c) filling the open pouch; d) closing and sealing the open pouch with a second sheet of film material; e) releasing the vacuum applied to the pouch. The pouches obtained according to the process of the invention have a reduce air content. The use of the pouches containing detergent composition for laundry and dishwashing is also disclosed.
