Claims (27)

1. A packaging container made of plastic film, the packaging container comprising:

a strap handle arranged within a contour of the container;

a container wall made of plastic film;

wherein the container wall has an inner side and the strap handle is arranged on the inner side;

wherein the container wall has an access opening through which access opening the strap handle is accessible from an exterior of the container;

a support patch made of plastic film and connected with a first face to the inner side of the container wall;

wherein the strap handle is comprised of a first end and a second end, the first and second ends glued or attached by a heat seal seam to the first face of the support patch, and further comprised of a handle loop part that extends from said first end to said second end, wherein said handle loop part with its entire length from said first end to said second end rests flat without being folded on the support patch;

wherein the access opening is closed off relative to an interior of the container by the support patch and the interior remains sealed by the support patch when the strap handle is in use.

2. The container according to claim 1 , wherein the support patch has outer edges connected continuously to the inner side of the container wall.

3. The container according to claim 1 , wherein a contour of the access opening is prepared by a perforation line and the access opening is releasable by tearing open a wall area of the container wall surrounded by the perforation line.

4. The container according to claim 3 , wherein a grip opening for facilitating gripping of the wall area to be torn off is provided.

5. The container according to claim 1 , wherein the container wall is comprised of a composite film comprising an inner layer comprised of heat-sealable thermoplastic plastic material and comprising an outer layer comprised of polyester.

6. The container according to claim 5 , wherein the polyester is PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and wherein the heat-sealable thermoplastic plastic material is polyethylene.

7. The container according to claim 1 , wherein the strap handle is comprised of a thermoplastic plastic film or a composite film that is made of thermoplastic plastic material and a polyester.

8. The container according to claim 1 , wherein the support patch is connected to an inner layer of the container wall by a heat seal seam.

a support patch made of plastic film and connected to the container wall;

wherein the access opening is closed off relative to an interior of the container by the support patch;

wherein the support patch is made of thermoplastic plastic film and wherein the strap handle is continuously glued to the support patch, wherein the strap handle has a handle loop part and wherein an adhesive force between the handle loop part and the support patch is greatly reduced by applying a release coating to the support patch in comparison to an adhesive force between ends of the strap handle and the support patch.
