A multi-layer film and a film package made from the film are described herein that provide resealing capabilities by utilizing a tacky layer within the multi-layer film. The multi-layer film can include an outer film portion including the embedded tacky layer and an inner film portion. An opening feature formed in the multi-layer film includes a flap configured to be manipulated by a user to create an opening through the multi-layer film. The inner film portion can include a release layer configured specifically to interact with the tacky layer to provide a desired separation peel force and resealing functionalities. The outer film portion can include an outer film layer disposed on an opposite side of the tacky layer from the release layer that is configured to permanently adhere to the tacky layer.

Multi-layer film and reclosable film package

The present disclosure relates to a reclosable flexible film package with a flexible film having a folded edge, at least two opposing free edges, and at least a front panel and a back panel. The front and back panels define an interior space. The flexible film package also may have a score in the flexible film of the front panel forming a flap that defines an opening when the flap is moved upward, toward the folded edge and a label extending uninterrupted from edge to edge of the at least two opposing free edges, the label being attached on the film by pressure sensitive adhesive, and extending beyond the score on the front panel to reseal the package opening defined by the flap.

Reclosable flexible film packaging products and methods of manufacture

Flexible film packages having an easily opened package feature incorporated therein and method of producing such packages are provided. The package opening feature may be incorporated into a variety of package formats such as flow wrapped packages having a longitudinal seal (including fin seals or lap seals) or packages with side seals (including two-, three-, or four-side seal pouches). In one illustrative approach, the package opening feature is disposed adjacent or at a package seal, such as, for example, an end seal, a top seal, a bottom seal, a side seal, or a longitudinal seal. The flexible film laminate has at least first and second film layers, and at least one of the film layers defining an interior cavity configured to hold food products. In a number of configurations, the flexible film packages may be reclosable or resealable.
