A packaging laminate comprising a core layer of paper or 
carton with a through-going hole, a layer of thermoplastics applied onto one outer side of the core layer, an 
aluminium foil applied onto the other, inner, side of the core layer and bonded to the core layer by means of an intermediate layer of thermoplastics, the two 
layers of thermoplastics being sealed to each other within the region of the hole to form a membrane of 
aluminium foil and thermoplastics, and a first 
adhesive part-layer applied onto the inner side of the 
aluminium foil, a second intermediate part-layer of 
low density polyethylene applied adjacent to the first 
adhesive part-layer, and a third innermost part-layer comprising in the majority a 
metallocene polyethylene. The packaging laminate has improved sealability properties and provides improved or maintained 
package integrity and openability to a packaging container manufactured from the laminate, having an opening arrangement, which at opening removes the membrane of laminated 
layers of 
aluminium foil and thermoplastics from the region of the hole in the core layer.
