Provided is a method for producing a sealed-edge pouch with a laminate composite stored therein. In some non-limiting embodiments or aspects the laminate composite is detached from a laminate composite web having a carrier film with substrates which are arranged thereon and are covered by means of a respective cover film. An intermediate body is supplied to the laminate composite web or to the laminate composite or is moulded into the carrier film such that the intermediate body or the intermediate bodies surrounds/surround all of the free surfaces of the substrate at least in regions. The laminate composite and all of the intermediate bodies are introduced between two packaging material webs. The packaging material webs are sealed to each other. Finally, the sealed-edge pouches are separated. A device for producing sealed-edge pouches and a sealed-edge pouch produced according to this method are also provided.
