Abstract

The present invention relates to the packaging of articles and more particularly to improvements in processes for the packaging of a number of infusion packages, such as teabags, within a container (50) to form a retail pack. The method for packaging is particularly useful in the packaging of the packages in a series of stacks (12) within a bag-like outer container to form a soft pack in which the teabags are retained in their stacks during retail display of the container.
