A protective assembly may be, for examples, a rectangular blanket or pad placed over or under an object to be insulated or a bag or pouch which receives an object. The protective assembly includes at least one and preferably two inner layers and a solid outer layer. The inner layer has a plurality of interconnected funnels. The funnels each have a small end and a large end. An opening is defined by each funnel in the inner layer adjacent the large end. The small end of the funnel extends toward the outer layer. The funnels space the layers apart. The funnels form a dead airspace while trapping condensate which may be harmful to the object being protected by preventing liquid from being forced upon the object. The protective assembly substantially eliminates the possibility that condensation will drop upon the object or be forced by pressure into contact with the object.

[ We claim:] [1.] A protective assembly comprising, in combination, at least one thermoplastic inner layer and an outer layer, said outer layer being in proximity to said inner layer, said outer layer having a continuous surface, said inner layer having a plurality of interconnected funnels, each of said funnels having a small end and a large end, openings defined by said funnels in said inner layer at said large end, said inner layer being porous with said openings extending through said inner layer, said small end extending toward said outer layer, said outer layer being spaced sufficiently from said inner layer and from said funnels to form a vacant space for receiving gas and liquid, said openings emptying into said space.
