The present invention provides a packaging unit for hygiene articles and a method of forming such a unit. The packaging unit is formed from a sheet of material having an inner surface and an outer surface, wherein the inner surface comprises an edge zone comprising an inner edge portion and an outer edge portion. The sheet has at least one first folding axis, dividing the sheet in to a first region and a second region. One of the inner edge portion and the outer edge portion of the edge zone of the first region is provided with resealable adhesive, thus forming a first adhesive zone, and the other of the inner edge portion and the outer edge portion of the edge zone of the first region is adhesive-free. Further, the inner edge portion or the outer edge portion of the edge zone of the second region corresponding to the adhesive-carrying edge portion of the first region is adhesive-free, such that when the sheet is folded about the first folding axis,the edge portions carrying resealable adhesive in the first region are brought in contact with the adhesive-free edge portions in the second region. A distance between the at least one first folding axis and the first adhesive zone is 1-20mm, preferably 2-18mm, more preferably 3-15mm.La presente invención proporciona una unidad de empaque para artículos de higiene y un método para formar tal unidad. La unidad de empaque se forma de una hoja de material teniendo una superficie interior y una superficie exterior, en donde la superficie interior comprende una zona de borde que comprende una porción de borde interior y una porción de borde exterior. La hoja tiene al menos un primer eje plegable, dividiendo la hoja en una primera región y una segunda región. Una de la porción de borde interior y la porción de borde exterior de la zona de borde de la primera región se proporciona con adhesivo resellable, formando de esta manera una primera zona adhesiva, y la otra de la porción de borde interior y la porción de borde exterior d
