Abstract: A package blank is provided including a wrapping material and a substantially deformable inner material. The wrapping material consists of a resilient film having a sealed inner space. The inner material consists of particles accommodated within the sealed inner space. At least one article is surrounded by the package blank. During a package forming process, pressure is reduced within the inner space and the article is surrounded by the blank. The pressure reduction causes the wrapping material to tightly encircle the article, the inner material to be stiffened, and the particles to be substantially immobilized relative to each other. A stiffening plate included on a surface of the wrapping material is adapted to receive a piercing device during the package forming process. The piercing device penetrates the wrapping material and the stiffening plate and establishes a communication between the sealed inner space and a vacuum creating mechanism.
