Abstract
A reclosable child-resistant plastic zipper assembly of manufacturer definable length is disclosed. The assembly has a first zipper strip and a second zipper strip, the zipper strips having complementary reclosure profiles. The zipper assembly lacks upper flanges, but instead terminates at a pair of closure tabs that meet at an opening point when the strips have been mated to provide the closure. The zipper strips each further include a texturized gripping region on the exterior surfaces to enable a user to open the zipper assembly. The assembly may be affixed to the upper end of a bag or other flexible container to provide child-resistant access to the contents therein.
