A method of folding a gas bag for a vehicle occupant restraint system is disclosed, this gas bag having a wall delimiting a chamber and having an inflation opening, the inflation opening having a rim. The method comprises the following steps: First, the gas bag is spread out on a base. Then, the rim of the inflation opening of the gas bag is held fixed. Thereafter, a plate is arranged parallel to the base and at a distance therefrom, so that the gas bag extends between the base and the plate. Subsequently, the chamber of the gas bag is exposed to a pressurized medium, so that the gas bag unfolds between the base and the plate. Finally, the wall of the gas bag is pressed inwards at a plurality of sites distributed over a circumference of the gas bag. Further, a gas bag folded by performing this method and a device for performing the method are disclosed.

A method of folding a side impact gas bag comprises the following steps: First, the gas bag is spread out on a base. Then, the rim of the inflation opening of the gas bag is fixed. Thereafter, a plate is arranged at a predetermined distance from the base and parallel thereto, so that the gas bag lies between the base and the plate. Then, the gas bag is inflated between the base and the plate. Finally, the wall of the gas bag is pushed together from the outside inwards, whereby a portion of the wall of the gas bag is turned into its interior.
