To provide a packaging material with which a package can be arranged such that a front-side region of the packaging material is directed in a direction crossing a vertical direction.SOLUTION: A packaging material further comprises a belt-like extension part which is formed in a belt-like shape extending in one direction and also arranged overlapping with one surface of a main body part, and has one width-directional end part coupled to the main body part to extend from the one surface of the main body part. The belt-like extension part is configured to have a center-side region positioned more on one surface side of an article than both lengthwise end parts and also to have both the lengthwise end parts positioned more on the other surface side than the one surface of the article when the article is wrapped with the main body part. The main body part is configured to have the region, overlapping with the belt-like extension part, arranged along the article to separate from the belt-like extension part when the article is wrapped.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3【課題】包装材の前側領域が上下方向に対して交差する方向を向くように包装体を配置することができる包装材を提供することを課題とする。【解決手段】一方向に延びる帯状に形成されると共に本体部の一方の面に重なるように配置されて幅方向の一端部が本体部に連結されることで本体部の一方の面から延出するように構成された帯状延出部を更に備えており、該帯状延出部は、本体部で物品を包み込む際に、長手方向の両端部よりも中央側の領域が物品の前記一方の面側に位置し、長手方向の両端部が物品の前記一方の面よりも前記他方の面側に位置するように構成されており、本体部は、物品を包み込む際に、帯状延出部と重なり合う領域が物品に沿って配置されて帯状延出部から離間するように構成される。【選択図】図３
