Abstract
A flexible laminate suitable for forming a package () having a reclosable flap () is provided that includes pressure sensitive adhesive () extending in a periphery region past a reseal margin () for the flap () and on an opposite side therefrom for joining an outer and inner layer () of the laminate together, whether directly or indirectly. The pressure sensitive adhesive () can overlie a permanent adhesive () in the periphery region, or directly join the outer and inner layers of the laminate together. The use of pressure sensitive adhesive () in the region can reduce the tight registration needed for cutting the outer layer () to define an outward layer of the flap (), thereby reducing the chances for cutting into a portion of the outer layer () joined only by permanent adhesive () to the inner layer ().
