Abstract

Inflatable packaging (100) comprises a first rigid package member (52) and a second package member (53), which may be of a rigid or flexible material. The members (52, 53) are secured together to define an inflation chamber (70) between them. The chamber (70) is typically inflated with pressurised gas, usually air. The first member (52) is provided with formations (65) to accommodate an article (1) to be packaged. The second package member (53) may be provided with a valve (60) to allow selected inflation/deflation of chamber (70). The packaging (100) can provide reasonable shock absorbing protection for the article (2) even in the event of a puncture. Also, especially if the same materials are used for members (52, 53) it is readily recyclable. <IMAGE>
