More Information
Summary:Disclosed is a reclosable flexible film package that is made from a flexible film having a fold forming a folded edge (34), at least two opposing free edges (26,28), and at least a front panel (64) and a back panel (66), the opposing free edges being sealed together to form at least one sealed edge such that front and back panels define an interior space; a score (38) in the flexible film of the front panel forming a flap that defines an opening when moved toward the folded edge and has a separation force for the flap from the film; and a label (24) extending uninterrupted from edge to edge of the at least two opposing free edges, being attached on the film (22) by pressure sensitive adhesive, and extending beyond the score on the front panel to reseal the package opening defined by the flap, the pressure sensitive adhesive having a peel strength between the film and the label that is greater than the separation force along the score, and the label further having a tack free portion defining a pull tab (36).
