A bag has front and back face panels having upright longitudinally extending side edges and transversely extending upper and lower edges. First and second gusset panels each have transversely extending upper and lower edges and upright longitudinal outer edges connected to the longitudinal edges of the face panels. A reclosable fastener strip extends continuously and transversely along the first gusset panel and inward along each of the face panels from the first gusset panel along part of a transverse width of the face panels. Thus opening of the fastener and folding out of the first gusset panel forms a spout on the bag. A separate generally rectangular floor panel is joined at its outer edge by thermal welds to the lower edges of the face panels and of the gusset panels.

Side-gusset bag and method of making a side-gusset bag

The invention relates to a flat-lying side-gusset bag made of a plastic fabric composite () and to a method for the production thereof. The side-gusset bag has opposing front walls (), side gussets () introduced in between said front walls (), and folding edges () between the front walls () and the side gussets (). Peripheral sections of the plastic fabric composite () are connected together in an overlapping region () at a longitudinal seam, wherein the plastic fabric composite () has a plastic fabric () and at least one closed plastic layer. The side gussets () extend, in the case of the flat-lying side-gusset bag, in each case over at most &#x2153; of the width of the front walls. According to the invention, the overlapping region (10) is arranged off-center on one of the front walls () at least partially over one of the side gussets () or at one of the side gussets (). In order to be able to form such a side-gusset bag, in the production method, first of all a closed, two-layer tube () is formed, from which a side-gusset tube () is subsequently formed.
