Resealable bags for snack products

Abstract

A resealable packaging bag, in an embodiment, including rigid side walls and a resealable flexible flap having a raised pull tab for use by a consumer to remove the flap by attaching the flap to the bag Open the bag by separating the front and then reseal the bag by placing the flap back over the opening. The edges of the peelable flap are coated with a resealable adhesive, while one side or end of the flap is attached to a portion of the front surface of the bag. The pull-tab portion of the flap may mate with an opening (such as a slot) located at the top seal of the bag. Once the pull tab is engaged with the opening, the flap is held back out of the way of the opening so that the flap does not interfere with the consumer's access to the product and so that the flap does not unintentionally close the bag by falling back onto the surface of the bag when not intended.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to snack packages and, in particular, to unique resealable snack packages. Background technique [0002] Flexible packaging bags have been used for some time to provide snack food to consumers. However, most common single-serve bags do not provide a quality consumer experience when attempting to access and consume the product within the single-serve bag (eg, approximately 1 cup - 2 cups). Current pouches often open at the end seams, so grabbing and pulling the end seams with your hands is not a pleasant and convenient way to open the package. Not only does this prove difficult to accomplish on those bags with extensive end seals, but many times as the end seals yield to the consumer's pull, the bag can open sharply, allowing some of the contents to spill out of the bag. out. At other times, the pulling force may prove to be excessive when the bag's side or back seams tear apart after the end seal has succumbed to the p...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Applying pressure along the bag may cause the consumer to crush the remaining contents of the bag when the bag is resealed, resulting in a large amount of unwanted chips or debris

Furthermore, if maintaining the thickness of the bag after opening is less important to the consumer than the initial size of the bag when carrying such a bag, the common pillow bag packaging Often feel oversized for those consumers

In particular, current pillow bags are sealed in such a way that ambient air is trapped inside the bag along with the contents, and this trapped air maintains the thickness of the bag to protect the product from the inside of the factory, but the swelling or bulging Thickness can make it difficult for consumers to carry common pillow bags

In those cases, slim profile pouches that still offer a reseal option are not currently available in the market

Additionally, the thickness of the expanded conventional pillow bag results in reduced product fit on the product display shelf when the conventional pillow bag is placed in a straight line
