Abstract
The present invention relates to a packaging unit designed to absorb and/or adsorb liquid that is being transported or was spilled or was released. The packaging unit has at least one sealing multi-layer comprising a first water soluble film and an absorbent/adsorbent material. When the liquid contacts the water soluble film, the liquid passes through the water-soluble film. When the liquid contacts the absorbent/adsorbent material, the absorbent/adsorbent material immobilizes the liquid material. This immobilization prevents the liquid from escaping from the packaging container.
