Method for packing liquid pouches, e.g. pouches of milk, into packaging cartons (15), in which method the liquid pouches are manufactured in their manufacturing machine, transferred to a packing station (12), where they are dropped into packaging cartons (15). The invention is implemented in such a way that dropped into the packaging carton (15) along with the liquid pouches is a film (16), more particularly a plastic film, with which the liquid pouch or liquid pouch group is protected on at least some of its surfaces during the dropping and which in the packaging carton (15) settles between the liquid pouches and the inside surfaces of the packaging carton (15).
