Flexible material for flexible package

This describes a flexible, reclosable pouch designed to be easily opened and resealed. It's made from two layers of material: a main body layer with a pre-weakened tear line for opening, and a second layer that covers parts of the main body and includes the reclosable seal. The claims specifically detail how these layers are joined and how additional weakened lines in the second layer help the package function.

Why it matters: Filed in 2014, advancements in sustainable flexible packaging materials and precision manufacturing for tear lines and reclosable features could make this design more viable or cost-effective to produce today.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: ModerateFlexible material processing, sealing, scoring, reclosable feature.
