STACK OF INTERFOLDED MATERIAL SHEETS AND METHOD FOR ITS PRODUCTION

A stack of material sheets, which material sheets have a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction and which material sheets are folded at least once in the transverse direction along a transverse folding line and at least once in the longitudinal direction along a longitudinal folding line. The material sheets are interlinked such that, when a first material sheet is extracted, a predetermined part of the next material sheet is fed out. Two consecutive material sheets in the stack are folded into one another and are in this way interlinked by panels of the respective material sheets. The said panels constitute rectangles each having two delimiting edges namely a longitudinal fold edge and a transverse fold edge. The two consecutive material sheets lie stacked with the longitudinal fold edge of a first material sheet arranged in the opposite direction in relation to the corresponding longitudinal fold edge of the next, second material sheet. In addition, a panel of the first material sheet is enclosed by two panels of the next material sheet.
