Abstract: The invention relates to a wrapped pulp bale of the kind which, apart from a proper bale, comprises an enveloping wrapping which is folded along opposite faces of the bale while forming mutually overlapping parts in which the paper lies in two or more layers on top of each other. For holding the wrapping against the proper bale, sets of lugs (26) are provided in the overlapping parts of the wrapping, each set of lugs including a number of lugs corresponding to the number of paper layers, which are punched out from the paper layers while leaving through holes therein, and folded along a common folding line (25) as well as jointly inserted between the inside of the innermost layer of paper and the outside of the bale in order to be held therebetween.
