Claim 0:
1. A system for compensating for atmospheric pressure changes for high-altitude transport of packages containing powdered and/or granular material, the system comprising:
one or more packages comprising a one-way degassing valve configured to flow gaseous substances produced by the powdered and/or granular material contained in the one or more packages outside the one or more packages;
wherein each of the one or more packages comprises:
a casing; and
a containment element configured to wrap the casing;

wherein the casing comprises:
a main body made of expandable material;
a capping device associated with the main body; and
an insertion opening obtained in the main body, wherein the insertion opening is irreversibly resealable to isolate an interior of the main body, wherein the one or more packages are insertable in the casing through the insertion opening of the main body;

wherein the capping device comprises:
a tubular sleeve extending along an extension axis associated with the casing to close the casing, the tubular sleeve comprising first coupling means and a bottom wall configured to close the tubular sleeve below with respect to an opposite upper opening of the tubular sleeve;
a closure element comprising second coupling means, wherein the second coupling means is configured to reversibly couple to the first coupling means of the tubular sleeve to hermetically close the upper opening of the tubular sleeve; and
a first one-way valve and a second one-way valve associated with the bottom wall;

wherein the first one-way valve is configured to allow insertion of gases inside the casing to reach a pre-set pressure value inside the casing, and
wherein the second one-way valve is configured to allow outflow of gases outside the casing, upon exceeding the pre-set pressure value inside the casing.
