Abstract: The present invention relates to a transport sleeve (1) or sack which is formed of a single fibre web or by sewing up or otherwise fastening two or more webs or sheets of fabric or fibre to form a protective cover (2,3,4) which can be wrapped around sheet material (13). The fabric or fibre cover can then be fastened in the form of a bag or sleeve to protect the sheet material. One variant of the present invention therefore relates to a sleeve in the shape of a bag which is either preformed by sewing up or otherwise fastening two or more fabric webs or sheets of synthetic material (2,3,4) together and folding them around a sheet of material (13) to be transported, or is obtained by folding over a single web of material around the sheet material.
