The present invention relates to sheet-like materials suitable for use in the containment and protection of various items, as peel as the preservation of perishable materials such as food items. More particularly, the present invention provides an improved storage wrap material comprising a sheet of material having a first side and a second side. The first side comprises an active side exhibiting an adhesion peel force after activation by a user. The storage wrap material may be activated by different approaches, but in a preferred embodiment the active side is activatable by an externally applied force exerted upon the sheet of material. The force may be an externally applied compressive force exerted in a direction substantially normal to the sheet of material. In accordance with the present invention, the storage wrap material is selectively by a user in discrete regions to provide adhesive properties where and when desired. The use of an adhesive or adhesive-like substance on the surface of the material p
