The present invention relates to a laminated packaging material suitable for use especially in heat-sealable packages for liquid food, such as milk, cream and juice cartons, and to a manufacturing method of the material, and to a food package manufactured of the material. The material comprises a core of paper or cardboard, and oxygen and aroma proof barrier layers of EVOH and polyamide. The EVOH layer and the polyamide layer are joined together directly without any intermediate adhesive layer, and the barrier layers and the core are interposed between polymeric heat-sealing layers on both sides of the material. The material is manufactured by extrusion so that at least the materials of the said barrier layers are placed against each other in a molten state and forwarded to the core in one web.

1. A laminated packaging material especially for heat-sealable liquid food packages, comprising a core of paper or cardboard, and oxygen and aroma proof barrier layers consisting of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer and polyamide layers, wherein the weight of the polyamide layer is in the range of 1 to 8 g/m2, and wherein the weight of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer layer is in the range of 1 to 8 g/m2; that the layer of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer and the layer of polyamide are joined together without an intermediate adhesive layer, and that the material includes polymeric heat-sealing layers on both sides so that the core and the said barrier layers are situated between the heat-sealing layers; wherein the barrier layers, joined together are placed directly against the core of paper or cardboard without an intermediate adhesive layer; wherein the barrier layers do not contain an aluminum layer; and wherein the barrier layer of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer layer is placed directly against the core of paper or cardboard; and the material further comprises an adhesive layer having a weight in the range of 3 to 10 g/m2 which is between one of said outer heat-sealing layers and one of said barrier layers.2. A packaging material in accordance with claim 1, wherein the heat-sealing layers forming the surface layers of the material are made of polyolefin.3. A packaging material in accordance with claim 2, wherein the polyolefin is low-density polyolefin.4. A packaging material in accordance with claim 1, wherein the weight of the polyamide layer is 2 to 5 g/m2.5. A packaging material in accordance with claim 1, wherein the weight of each of the heat-sealing layers is in the range of 5 to 50 g/m2.6. A method for manufacturing a packaging material of claim 1, in which the polymeric laminate layers are placed on the paper or the cardboard core by extrusion, wherein the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer and polyamide are placed against each other in molten webs, and thus forwarded to the core in one, combined layer.7. A sealed package for liquid food, wherein the package is manufactured by heat-sealing from a packaging material of claim 1.8. A packaging material in accordance with claim 1, wherein the packaging material is a liquid packaging material.9. A laminated packaging material especially for heat-sealable liquid food packages, comprising a core of paper or cardboard, and oxygen and aroma proof barrier layers consisting of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer and polyamide layers, wherein the weight of the polyamide layer is in the range of 1 to 8 g/m2, and wherein the weight of the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer layer is in the range of 1 to 8 g/m2; that the layer of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer and the layer of polyamide are joined together without an intermediate adhesive layer, and that the material includes polymeric heat-sealing layers on both sides so that the core and the said barrier layers are situated between the heat-sealing layers; wherein the polyamide layer is placed directly against the core of the paper or cardboard without an intermediated adhesive layer, to absorb moisture released from the core and protect the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer layer against formation of holes upon heat-sealing; the material further comprises an adhesive layer of a polymer other than those of said barrier layers, which is between the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer layer and one of said outer heat-sealing layers; and no aluminum layer is present in the material.10. A packaging material in accordance with claim 9, wherein there is an adhesive layer having a weight in the range of 3 to 10 g/m2 which is between one of said outer heat-sealing layers and one of said barrier layers.
