Abstract

A multilayer structure intended for a packaging laminate with embossed appearance comprises a base layer and flexible, deformable layer disposed in planar relationship adjacent one another, with both layers adhesively bonded to one another along part surfaces of the total contact surface of each respective layer in a predetermined pattern. The flexible layer may be permanently deformed along the part surface or part surfaces that are in abutment against, but not adheringly bonded to the base layer, so that it substantially deviates from being in abutment against the base layer. Methods of producing a multilayer structure and a packaging laminate, as well as packaging containers produced from the packaging laminate are also disclosed.
