• said first and second plies disposed in an overlapping arrangement with said first and second inside slip surfaces facing one another,
• wherein said first and second plies are connected along a sealed perimeter of said multi-layer packaging pad to provide a slip region between said first and second plies where an unconstrained middle portion of said second ply is not bonded to said first ply in said slip region and is moveable relative to said first ply with said first and second inside slip surfaces formulated to slide relative to one another,
