               Appellants claim a method for producing a packaging                     
          material by applying a film of plastic material to a first                   
          surface of a metal foil to form a laminate and securing, by                  
          use of a binder material, a second surface of the metal foil                 
          of the laminate to a core layer having a hole therein.  Claim                
          9 is illustrative and reads as follows:

               securing a second surface of the metal foil web of the                  
          first laminate adjacent a first surface of a core layer with a               
          second film of binder material, the core layer being formed                  
          with an opening in the form of a hole.
