Abstract

L'invention concerne un contenant souple multicouche comprenant des premier et second panneaux intérieurs, des premier et second panneaux extérieurs opposés, un élément d'étanchéité et un désoxygénant. Les panneaux extérieurs opposés s'étendent sur chacun des premier et second panneaux intérieurs opposés respectivement. L'élément d'étanchéité réunit les premier et second panneaux extérieurs et les premier et second panneaux intérieurs de manière à définir une cavité intérieure et au moins une cavité extérieure. Le désoxygénant est associé à au moins un des premier et second panneaux extérieurs opposés.
